I get up early when the sleeping pill wakes me

I take a wake up pill and fill with energy

A          E                   Bm
I power on hard and I check my messages

      D
But I don't have any messages

E             G                      D                      A

All I know is the world looks beautiful, the world looks so damn beautiful

N.C.          A
And I feel fantastic

And I never felt as good as how I do right now

            D            E              C#m      F#m
Except for maybe when I think of how I felt that day

        D        Dm            A
When I felt the way that I do right now, right now

N.C.          A
And I feel fantastic

And I never felt as good as how I do right now

When I felt the way that I do right now, right now, right now
[Verse 2]
A                     E
 Work is anything but quiet these days

Bm                    D
 I try to medicate my concentration haze

A                  E         Bm
I can feel the day unfold in front of me

     D
So I take the stairs and hit the gym

A                            E
 The phone is ringing when I get to my desk

Bm                           D
 What was a stinging's now a sharp pain in my chest

A            E                 Bm
 So I take a Calminex and just chill

    D
And then it's time for lunch again
[Pre-Chorus 2]
E             G                     D                      A
All I know is work is easy when you don't stress out about deadlines

E               G                   D              E
All I know is I take my medicine, I always take my medicine
[Chorus]

And I feel fantastic

        D        Dm            A
When I felt the way that I do right now, right now

N.C.          A
And I feel fantastic

       D             E             A
And I never felt as good as how I do right now

[Bridge]
B             Em                 B
Sometimes I'd like to slow things down

Em              B
Enjoy the moment

            Em              B     Em
But when I look the moment's gone
[Verse 3]
A                   E
 Work is over but I can't stay to work late

 Got to leave and get ready for my second date

A              E                      Bm
 With a pretty girl that I met at the pharmacy

D
Right in the prescription line

A                     E
 I take a pill for my social anxiety

Bm                   D
 I get a table and a nice bottle of Chablis

A                 E                         Bm
 Now it's getting late and there's still no sign of her

  D
I have another glass of wine
[Pre-Chorus 3]
E                 G                          D                         A
All I know is the wine lasts longer when you don't gotta share it with someone

E                G                          D                    E
All I know is my steak tastes better when I take my steak tastes better pill

Except for maybe when I think of how I felt that day

        D        Dm            A
When I felt the way that I do right now, right now

N.C.          A
And I feel fantastic

       D             E             A
And I never felt as good as how I do right now

             D           E             C#m        F#m
Except for maybe when I think of how I felt that day

        D        Dm            A
When I felt the way that I do right now, right now, right now
