AGet up; ya get down.
AGet lost and then ya get found.
DSure as I'm sittin' here,
ESure as I'm sittin' here.
AYa get a laugh; ya get a cry .
AGet 'em all before you die.
DSure as I'm sittin' here,
ESure as I'm sittin' here.
ACome on sit down, get down.
ACome-a-come-a sit down, get down.
DSure as I'm sittin' here,
ESure as I'm sittin' here.
All the F#mladies hypnoDtize you,
And Gall your friends, well Dthey just patroAnize you.
Don't gotta F#mlook for God,
Cause he just Dsittin' here.
And I Gthink he's got a pDlan but it's Enot so clear.
Lord, you get the Atruth; you get lies.
AGet 'em all before you die.
DSure as I'm sittin' here,
ESure as I'm sittin' here.
AYou get the light; you get the dark.
AFall in love and I break your heart.

F#mNow it might seem Dconfusing.
GWith all you get, well Dlook what all your Aloosing.
F#mBut it's just life and it just goes Don.
So Gquit with your Dcomplaining soon Eenough you will be gone.
ALord, Lord, Lord
DSure as I'm sittin' here,
ESure as I'm sittin' here.
