Chorus Part 1: Ah [Am] ooh [G] ooh [C] ooh

Ah [Am] ah ooh [G] ooh and they [C!] come unstuck

Chorus Part 2: [Am] Lady [G] running down to the [C] riptide

Taken away to the [Am] darkside

[G] I wanna be your [C] left hand man

I [Am] love you [G] when you're singing that [C] song and

I got a lump in my [Am] throat 'cause

[G] You're gonna sing the [C] words wrong

[Am] There's this movie [G] that I think you'll [C] like

This [Am] guy decides to [G] quit his job

And [C] heads to New York City

This [Am] cowboy's [G] running from him[C]self

And [Am] she's been living [G] on the highest [C] shelf

[Am!] Closest thing to [G!] Michelle Pfeiffer [C!] that you've ever seen oh

Repeat chorus part 2 x 3

I got a lump in my [Am] throat 'cause

If you love somebody enough

You Follow them wherever they go

That's how I got to Memphis


-

If you love somebody enough

You go where your heart needs to go



-

I know if you've seen her

You'd tell me cos you are my friend

I've got to find her

Find out the trouble she's in

-

And if you tell me she isn't here

I'll follo the trail of her tears



She use to get mad and she'd say

She'd come back to Memphis someday



-

I haven’t eaten a bite

Or slept for three days and nights



-

I got to find her

Tell her that I love her so

I'll never rest

Till I find out why she had to go

-

Thank you for your precious time

Forgive me if I start to cryin'

Imagine there's no heaven

It's easy if you try

No hell below us

Above us only sky

Imagine all the people

Living for today

Imagine there's no countries

It isn't hard to do

Nothing to kill or die for

And no re ligion too


Living life in peace

You may say I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope some day you'll join us

And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions

I wonder if you can

No need for greed or hunger

A brotherhood of man


Sharing all the world

You may say I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope some day you'll join us

And the world will live as one

Intro

In the chilly hours and minutes

Of uncertainty, I want to be

In the warm hold of your loving mind

-

To feel you all around me

And to take your hand along the sand

Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind

-

When sundown pales the sky

I want to hide a while behind your smile

And everywhere I'd look, your eyes I'd find.

-

For me to love you now

Would be the sweetest thing, would make me sing

Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.

-

Deedee dee dee, dee dee deedee

Dee dee deedee, dee dee deedee

Dee de deeee

When rain has hung the leaves with tears

I want you near to kill my fears

To help me to leave all my blues behind

-

For standing in your heart

Is where I want to be and long to be

Always Look on the Bright Side of Life

Eric Idle 1979

Some [Am]things in life are [D]bad they can [G]really make you [Em]mad

Other [Am]things just make you [D]swear and [G]curse

When you're [Am]chewing on life's [D]gristle

Don't [G]grumble give a [Em]whistle

And [Am]this'll help things turn out for the [D7]best

And [G]always [Em]look on the [Am]bright [D7]side of [G]life [Em] [Am] [D7]

[G]Always [Em]look on the [Am]light [D7]side of [G]life [Em] [Am] [D7] If [Am]life seems jolly [D]rotten there's [G]something you've [Em]forgotten

And [Am]that's to laugh and smile and [D]dance and [G]sing

When you're [Am]feeling in the [D]dumps don't be [G]silly [Em]chumps

Just [Am]purse your lips and whistle - that's the [D7]thing


Come on al[G]ways [Em]look on the [Am]bright [D7]side of [G]life [Em] [Am] [D7]

For [Am]life is quite ab[D]surd and [G]death's the final [Em]word

You must [Am]always face the [D]curtain with a [G]bow

For[Am]get about your [D]sin - give the [G]audience a [Em]grin

En[Am]joy it - it's your last chance any[D7]how

So [G]always [Em]look on the [Am]bright [D7]side of [G]death [Em] [Am] [D7]

[G]Just be[Em]fore you [Am]draw your [D7]terminal [G]breath [Em] [Am] [D7]

[Am]Life's a piece of [D]shit [G]when you look at [Em]it [Am]Life's a laugh and [D]death's a joke it's [G]true

You'll [Am]see it's all a [D]show

Keep 'em [G]laughing as you [Em]go

Just [Am]remember that the last laugh is on [D7]you


[G]Always [Em]look on the [Am]right [D7]side of [G]life [Em] [Am] [D7]

(Come on guys, cheer up) [A]Always [F#m]look on the [Bm]right [E7]side of [A]life [F#m] [Bm] [E7]

[A]Always [F#m]look on the [Bm]right [E7]side of [A]life [F#m] [Bm] [E7]....
