Roger Creager - Things Look Good Around Here
[Intro]  
 A   A   D    A   D   D   G   Dx4
AIt's 4 am and I just got home
DTo my motel room so I picked up the phone
AI figured you'd like to hear about the day I Ehad
AIt's been a real peach of a day today
DThe van had a blowout on the way
ABy 11 am it was Ealready lookin' bAad
AWe drove all the way to Amarillo
DThe people are warm but it's always cold
AIt was raining outside and all our gear got Esoaked
ABut I didn't know the crowd would dig our stuff
DCause new towns are usually tough
AThey were singing along and Ethey knew every song I wrAote.
AThings look gF#mood around here
DThe boys are in the parking lEot still drinking beer
DI don't know if I'm eEver going to get them iAnside
AIt sounds like a pF#marty out there
DNo worries, Eno cares
DThings look gEood around heAre.
AWe sing all night and drive all day
DHey, there's got to be a better way
AWhen are we supposed to get our sEleep?
ASometimes, I love doing what I do
DOther times I hate being away from you
AAnd sometimes I can't Ebelieve I'm in this dAeep
AMost times I get nervous inside
DI try to hide it, that's my pride
ABut I need a little encouragement now anEd then
AStep out on the stage eyes wide
DIt always feels like my first time
AI kick-off a tune then EI'm all right agaAin.
AThings look gF#mood around here
DThe boys are in the parking lEot still drinking beer
DI don't know if I'm eEver going to get them iAnside
AIt sounds like a pF#marty out there
DNo worries, Eno cares
DThings look gEood around heAre.
AThings look gF#mood around here
DThe boys are in the parking lEot still drinking beer
DI don't know if I'm eEver going to get them iAnside
AIt sounds like a pF#marty out there
DNo worries, Eno cares
DThings look gEood around heAre.
AI know we need some time alone
DIt's not long now until I get home
AI'm sorry I woke you; I hope that you're not Emad
ABut it's 4 am and I just got home
DTo my motel room so I picked up the phone
AI figured you'd like to hEear about the life I haAve.
AThings look gF#mood around here
DI'm headed to the parking lot Eto grab me a beer
DThere's a party goin Eon outsideA  
AThis ain't the firF#mst time through
DAnd it won't Ebe the last one true

I kick-off a tune then I'm all right again.
