Intro:
A
Verse:
A
Feel sick after every meal I take
Cause I know that life from your burning wheel
won't wait, hey
Sleep I sleep every day
Wipe the cobwebs away
I need to be loved
Christ I'm out of my mind
I need to be loved
I need to be loved
(NB: Using a flanger effect at this point sounds good, turn off at chorus
though)
Chorus:
A, D*, E, F, G, A, D, E, F, G
(NB: Use a delay pedal so that every chord only has to be played once
and is repeated quickly)
So I turn to you and I say
Thank goodness for the good souls
That make life better
So I turn to you and I say
If it wasn't for the good souls
Life would not matter

Solo:
This is played differently throughout the song. It is played on the G and B strings, and starts at the 10th fret on the B string. It is also easy to figure out.
Verse:
A
Dive straight on your girlfriend
Making her feel like there's gonna be a war, oh
Dive straight in at the deep end
Making you feel like there's gonna be a war
Chorus:
A, D*, E, F, G, A, D, E, F, G
(Same effects used as before)
So I turn to you and I say
Thank goodness for the good souls
That make life better
So I turn to you and I say
If it wasn't for the good souls
Life would not matter
Solo
Verse:
One good day of the week and I'll be up again
A (turn flanger back on)
One good day of the week I'll be higher than the government
Chorus:
A, D*, E, F, G (x3)
(Same effect as before)
So I turn to you and I say
Thank goodness for the good souls
That make life better
So I turn to you and I say
If it wasn't for the good souls
Life would not matter
So I turn to you and I say
You're messing with a good heart
You've gotta take what's due
Solo
