Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
play G chord with bass lick:
Then on E string quickly walk up from 2nd fret to 3rd and play G chord
I think I've seen that sparkle in your eye
enough times to be the death of me.
Singin' songs is not the best way to make a life.
A stronger man would try to set you free.
walkdown
But I know that I make you happy,
at least for now,
so let me give you my word.
One of these days, we'll get some money
and we can ride around the world like three or four times
One of these days, some milk and honey
E no chord
and we can laugh about the early times
C no chord G (repeat intro)
when our paychecks came with a silver lining.
Oh say can you see that big house in the hills?
Fast cars and fancy diamond rings.
Don't go to work no more got time to pay our bills, well,
well to me that just sounds boring.
walkdown
And I know that don't make you want me.
But, for now, it's the least that you're worth.
One of these days, we'll get some money
and we can ride around the world like three or four times, my love.
One of these days, some milk and honey
E no chord
and we can laugh about the early times
C no chord
when our paychecks came with a silver lining.
Oh ...Seems like the day that I met you
my world started spinning around.
And, oh, tick tock our days might be numbered
but... but I think you're stuck with me now.
So come along now...
can't you see I'm turning nothing in to something.
And I might be down but I won't hit the ground without a fight
no chord
What I'm asking is ...
Are you down for the ride?
'Cuz one of these days
we'll get some money
and we can ride around the world like three or four times, my love.
One of these days,
some milk and honey
E no chord
and we can laugh about the early times
C no chord G (fade same as intro)
when our paychecks came with a silver lining.
