A Good Life- Jill Sobule ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by:rainagain Email: Tuning: Standard. Capo on 2nd fret. Sounds good with arpeggios or strumming. This is based on Jill's own great instructional video she put on youtube. (Two quick strums, or one fast downwards arpeggio - plucking base note then three strings - per chord for verse and the chorus; like 2/2 timing. Bridge section is slower, more like 4/4 timing.) VERSE: G D G D Tomorrow the ground may shake G D G D Like they said it was bound to happen one day G D G D And the Hollywood sign will fall G D G D The final call BRIDGE: Em Bm Well, don't you fret, and don't be blue C C7 (add little finger on third fret on G string) You had me and I had you CHORUS: G D Em It was a good life C D G It was a good, good life G D G D (for each line) Tomorrow we could all be gone When the Russian gangsters sell the bomb And the waves come roaring from the sea A hundred-foot swells over Venice Beach Em Bm Well, don't be scared, and take my hand C C7 We'll swim into the Promised Land G D Em It was a good life C D G It was a good, good life G D Em It was a good life C D G It was a good, good life G D G D (for each line) Tomorrow a tiny cell might grow In everyone, and it's not the cold Or the hole in the sky will open wide The aliens land on the 105 Em If it comes to that Bm What can we do? C C7 You loved me and I loved you G D Em It was a good life C D G It was a good, good life G D Em It was a good life C D G It was a good, good life (Then the same chords again for the rest of the song: G, D Em; C, D, G). I said a boom boom crash crash underneath the overpass Burning buildings, flying glass A good life On the day the earth stood still, we won't have to pay our bills As the mud slides down the hill, a good life And we won't have to make our beds Break out the booze, and like I said Let's have a ball before we're dead A good life Let the pyres rise above We'll go down in our sweet love It was a good, good life
