C G
I’ve done too much of some things
C G
And not enough of others
C G C G
Just like all life lovers
F C
I’ve changed and changed
F C
and changed and changed
F C F C
From one thing to another
C G
I’ve had complicated dealings
C G
With complicated feelings
C G C G
And I’ve cut and bruised and torn
F C F
I made blinds on the windows of my mind
C F C F C
with the time that my back once wore
G
I’m a single person in this universe
And I am here to say to you:
C
On the day that I die I’ll just give a smile
And fly into the blue
CHORUS
(Cause we’re all just)
G#
Protons, Neutrons, Electrons
Gmin
That rest on a Sunday
G#
Work on a Monday and someday soon
A#
We’ll be singing the old tunes
Gmin G#
Zip-A-dee-doo-dah, Zip-A-dee-doo
G# A#
I’ll be sitting on the porch with you
G# G
Then I’ll die and I’ll fly off into the blue
Verse 2 (same)
Some night I see the world with its winds and its whirls
And I feel undefeated
But every day I see the girl with the strawberry curl
And I’m too shy to meet her
Some nights I go to bed
There’s a ghost in the air above my head
And I tremble
Sometimes I eat KFC
Other times I give up meat
And I just eat lentils
I’m a singe person in the universe
And I am here to sing a song
About the day that I was born
Till the day that I’ll be gone
And the song won’t last for long
(Cause we’re all just…)
CHORUS (different lyrics)
Verse 3
And enemy is a remedy to a malady in your melody
If you’re strong not brittle
And a friend is a friend
Is a friend to the end and it’s oh so simple
A man is a man and a woman is a woman
But the times we are living in demand
That a man can change from a man to a woman
And a woman can demand to be a man
We’re just flesh with socks and locks and frocks
And I am here to say to you
On the day that I die I’ll just give a smile and fly into the blue
(Cause we’re all just…)
