Verse 1
(G major) I am not the type of dog
That could keep you waiting
For no good reason
Run a carbon-black test test on my jaw
And you will find it's all (A major) been said (G major) before
Verse 2
(G major)
I can swing my megaphone
And long arm the rest (G minor)
It's (C major) easier (G minor) and better to just
beat it (C major) from the chest (G major)

Verse 3
I could walk into (G major) this room
And the waves of conversation
(C major) are enough (G major)
To knock you down in the undertow
So alone
So all alone (G minor) (C major) (G minor) in my life (C major) (G major) (A minor)
Feed (C major) (G major) me banks of light
And hang your hairshirt on the
lowest rung
It's a beautiful life
And I can hang my hairshirt
Away up high in the attic of the
wrong dog's life chest
Or bury it at sea
All my life I've searched for this (Edim)
(G minor) (C major) (G minor) (Edim) (G minor) (C major) (G major) (A minor)
Verse 4
(G major)
(A minor) Here (C major) I (G major) am, here I am
In your life
It's a beau (C major) ti ful (G major) life
My life
It's a beau (C major) ti (G major) ful life
Outro 1
Your life
(G major) (C major) (G major) (G major) (C major)
