John Mellencamp – Sometimes A Great Notion (Guitar)

D
 Never give an inch

            A
That's what I say, son

D
 When it's too tough for everybody else

           A
Hell, it's just right for me

        D
Now, my lips are bleeding

                 A
From the selfish things that I've done

       E                    D             E D
And my heart it lies at the bottom of the ocean

                  D A
Sometimes a great notion

D
 Wanted to make love to my girl

       A
In the backseat of my car

D                                          A
So, I took her to the drive-in picture show

      D
So, I filled her up with

           A
Lies and a strong love potion

        E            D                  E D
And I'm sittin' here watching the movie alone

                  D A
Sometimes a great notion

D
Sometimes the best-laid plans

     A
Have been known to go astray

D                                 A
So, you better put your seat belt on

D
Just like your worst headache

        A
Well, a bad day don't go away

         E              D                     E D
And, you hit the ground running against your emotions

                  D A    D
Sometimes a great notion

A                 D A
Sometimes a great notion
