Soak Up the Sun by Sheryl Crow
Just an FYI:  The picking is easier if your fingers are in the chord position.  It 
easier transition between chords. You can also play the intro for the verses to change things 
a bit.

My Friend the Communist
E              B      A
Holds meetings in his RV
E         B        A
I can�t afford his gas
E                 B        A
So I�m stuck here watching TV
E            B   A
I don�t have digital
E            B      A
I don�t have diddly squat
E              B        A
Its not having what you want
E           B           A
Its wanting what you�ve got

Chorus:
E                     B
I�m gonna soak up the sun
                    A
I�m gonna tell everyone
           B
To lighten up (I�m gonna tell �em that)
E                  B
I�ve got no one to blame
                      A
For every time I feel lame
            B
I�m looking up
I�m gonna soak up the sun (Repeat intro on �sun� on this line, do 2x)
I�m gonna soak up the sun

Verse 2:
E          B      A
I�ve got a crummy job
E            B     A
It don�t pay near enough
E          B         A
To buy the things it takes

To win me some of your love

Change:
E
Every time I turn around
    B                  A

Maybe something�s wrong with you

That makes you act the way you do

I�m still the king of me
E          B     A
You have a fancy ride, but baby
E               B       A
I�m the one who has the key
Change:
E
Every time I turn around

I�m looking up, you�re looking down
E
Maybe something�s wrong with you
     B                 A
That makes you act the way you do
E          B     A
Maybe I am crazy too

Got my 45 on
              B
So I can rock on
