       G                  C     G            
I got rice cooking in the microwave  
       D                      Em       C 
Got a three day beard I don't plan to shave  
          G       D          Em         C 
And its a goofy thing but I just gotta say hey  
D    C       G 
I'm doing alright 
        G                       C        G 
Yeah I think I'll make me some homemade soup  
D                      Em         C 
Feelin pretty good and thats the truth  
G              D       Em      C 
It's neither drink nor drug induced, no  
D         C       G 
I'm just doin' alright 

            D           Em 
And it's a great day to be alive  
           Am         Bm             C        D 
I know the suns still shinin when I close my eyes  
              D                 Em 
There's some hard times in the neigborhood  
    Am              Bm      C         D 
But why can't every day be just this good
   
 
G  C  G  D  C  G 
 
Verse 2: 
Its been 15 years since I left home  
Said good luck to every seed I'd sown  
Gave it my best and then I left it alone, oh  
I hope they're doin' alright  
Now I look in the mirror and what do I see   
A lone wolf there starin' back at me  
Long in the tooth but harmless as can be, Lord  
I guess he's doin alright 
 
CHORUS 
 
Em             G                     C    G      
Sometimes its lonely, sometimes its only me  
          Am     Bm   C    D    Em 
And the shadows that fill this room 
              G                   C       G             A  A7 
Sometimes Im falling desperately calling howling at the mo--on 
       G (to instrumental) 
Ahhhwwooooo

        G                C     G 
Well I might go get me a new tattoo  
    D                        Em         C         
Or take my old Harley for a three day cruise  
G          D         Em      C 
Might even grow me a fu man chu, ohh  
 
 
CHORUS (twice)
