Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
I got a long road, some old photographs
I got my bourbon, blues on the phonograph
I got stars in my eyes, and it comes as no surprise
I got a pain in my heart
Chorus
(notes: )
I said good things, good things, good things, real good things
Good things come to those who wait, do-on't - don't be late
Oh no, don't be late.
I got a woman on my mind
That's a memory so sweet and kind
I just couldn't stay, and that gal she couldn't wait
I got tears in my eyes
[repeat CHORUS]
I want you to understand
Come and take me as I am
Take a sad old song
And make it feel like it belongs, it belongs
[instrumental verse x2]
[repeat first verse]
[repeat CHORUS]
I got a telephone in my heart
When times get rough, I call her up
I got a bluebird in a tree
Singin' me a sweet melody
And I got sunshine, but I don't care
'Cause there's a feeling leading me there
Right on time, right on time...
