INTRO:
Am C D Am x 2
Main Riff x 2
VERSE 1:
I hate to tell you this, but I'm very, very happy,
And I know that's not what you'd expect from me at all.
I'm not the kind to smile and bow out gracefully,
I always wanted to take it to the wall.
CHORUS 1:
But I found somebody with a heart as big as Texas.
I found an angel with the golden wings.
She saw me down here in the dark somehow,
And everything is different now.
Main Riff x 2
VERSE 2:
Yeah, I miss the old crowd sometimes, and the wild, wild nights of running.
You know, a starving soul can't live like that for long.
You go around in circles that just keep getting smaller,
You wake up one morning and half your life is gone.
CHORUS 2:
I got so tired of that; I got so lonely.
I dropped down and I called out to heaven, "Send me someone to love."
And heaven shot back, "You get the love that you allow."
And everything is different now.
Main Riff x 2
BRIDGE:
Oh, and it's sweet to know
The wisdom that living brings
Since I got the telegram from the god of simple things.
SOLO:
Solo (It starts over the last line of the bridge; listen to the song for timing)
CHORUS 3:
She said, "I don't care what you do for a living.
I don't care what kind of car you drive.
All I want to know right now is what do you believe in
And what it means to you to be alive.
Will you stand here in this fire with me?
Are you ready for another life?"
So I bit that bullet and I took that vow,
And everything is different now.
OUTRO:
Everything is different now.
Everything is different now... (repeat and fade)
