Talking Optimist Blues (Good Day Today)
[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
A
I got worries by the ton, gettin' cancer's only one
DG
Overtaxed and alimonied, tired of eatin' fried baloney
DA
I got burdens on my shoulders, dying young or growin' older,
D
There's some brain cells that I'm missin'
GA
But despite it all, I'd like to say
[Chorus]
D
I'm gonna have a good day today
A
Gonna have a good time anyway
GA
Put it all behind me, lay it all away
D
Gonna be a good day today
[Verse 2]
DA
Bills and pills and former wives, past mistakes and former lives
DG
Bank account is overdrawn, out of Prozac, hairline's gone
DA
Hearing voices in my head, say I should've stayed in bed
DGA
Dog just died, but what the heck, nothing worse can happen anyway
[Chorus]
D
So,, I'm gonna have a good day today
A
Me, I'm gonna have a good time anyway
GA
Put it all behind me, lay it all away
D
Gonna be a good day today
[Break]
DAGAD
[Verse 3]
DA
Pulled my back and wrecked my car, girlfriend stole my VCR
DG
Letter came from Sixty Minutes, say they wanna put me in it
DA
Tell me my career just died, years ago I might've cried
DGA
Now I'm just too old to do it, may be true, but screw it anyway
[Chorus]
D
Me, I'm gonna have a good day today
A
And I'm gonna have a good time anyway
GA
Put it all behind me, lay it all away
D
Gonna be a good day today
[Outro]
D
Hey, I'm gonna have a good day today
A
Me, I'm gonna have a good time anyway
GA
Put it all behind me, lay it all away
D
Gonna be a good day today
