D#
Was it you who spoke the words that things would happen but not to me
Cm
Oh things are gonna happen naturally
Fm
Oh taking your advice I'm looking on the bright side
G#A#
And balancing the whole thing
D#
But often times those words get tangled up in lines
Cm
And the bright lights turn to night
Fm
Until the dawn it brings
G#A#
Another day to sing about the magic that was you and me
D#G#add9A#
Ha La La La La
A#
L-listen closer to the verse I lay
D#G#add9A#
Ha La La La La
A#
It's all about the wordplay
D#G#add9A#
Ha La La La love
A#
The wonderful thing it does
D#
Because, because
G#add9

A#D#
This is a dangerous liaison
CmFm

CmFm
I say the tragedy is how you're gonna spend
A#D#
The rest of your nights with the light on
CmFm
So shine the light on all of your friends
A#D#
When it all amounts to nothing in the end.
Cm7
When it's time to get ill I got your remedy
A#
For those who don't remember me
G#add9
Well let me introduce you to my style
Cm7
I try to keep a jumble
A#
And the lyrics never mumble
G#add9
When the music's makin' people tongue-tied
Cm7
You want a new song
Like a new religion
A#
Music for the television
G#add9
I can't do the long division
Someone do the math
Cm7A#
For the people write me off like I'm a one-hit wonder
G#add9
Gotta find another way to keep from goin' under
Cm7
Pull out the stops,
A#
Got your attention
G#add9
I guess it's time again for me to mention
The wordplay
F

Am7

Gm7
Live righteously
A#m7
Takin it easy

Live high, live mighty
Gm7
Live righteously
A#m7
Takin it easy
D#
Cause You and I both
