Elvis Costello – Just About Glad (Guitar)

    D
I`m just about glad that I knew you once

           G                           D
And it was more than just a passing acquaintance

    D
I`m just about glad that it was a memory

     G                      D
That doesn't need constant maintenance

            G                 D
There are a few things that I regret

    G                      Em
But nothing that I need to forget

    G                  Em    A
For all of the courage that we never had

G               D
 I`m just about glad

G          D/F#           A       D
Just about glad we didn't do that thing

G          D/F#           A         D
Just about glad we didn't have that fling

G          D/F#           A       D
Just about glad we didn't give it a try

G          D/F#            A            D
Just about glad, is that a tear in your eye

            G                  D
And on the few times I rang to propose

            G                   Em
There was a man there or so I suppose

    G                  Em    A
The greatest lover that you never had

G                D
  I`m just about glad

A
 They called time and vodka and lime

        D                  A
In some far flung Canadian club

 G           A
(Just about glad)

A
And there I was just waiting to fall

       D                  A
Like a toe just aching to stub

 G           A
(Just about glad)

A
Later on I could never accept it

         D                      A
When you finally gave it all to him

 G           A
(Just about glad)

A
And you said that my nurse was sweet

        D                          A   G  D/F# Em
But her lamp was just beginning to dim

    D
I`m just about glad

                       G                     D
That we never did that thing we were going to do

    D
I`m just about glad I can look you in the eye

      G                      D
But I can`t say the same for you

               G                          D
And though the passion still flutters and flickers

    G                 Em
It never got into our knickers

     G         D/F#    Em    A
For all of the courage that we never had

G
 I`m just about, I`m just about

G
I`m just about, I`m just about

G          D/F#           A       D
Just about glad we didn't do that thing

G          D/F#           A         D
Just about glad we didn't have that fling

G          D/F#           A       D
Just about glad we didn't give it a try

G          D/F#            A            D
Just about glad, is that a tear in your eye

        G                     D
And it`s all just a stupid creation

      G               Em
Of my feverish imagination

     G         D/F#    Em    A
If I`m the greatest lover that you never had

G
 I`m just about, I`m just about

G
I`m just about, I`m just about

G          D/F#           A       D
Just about glad we didn't do that thing

G          D/F#           A         D
Just about glad we didn't have that fling

G          D/F#           A       D
Just about glad we didn't give it a try

G          D/F#            A            D
Just about glad, is that a tear in your eye

          A
Is that a tear in your eye

          A              D
Is that a tear in your eye
