TAKEN FROM THE 2010 ALBUM ''SATURDAY'' OR LIVE AT THE JAM HOUSE INTRO: DSUS2 D DSUS4 D (X2) VERSE 1:
     DSUS2       D           DSUS4  D
It’s too bad if you hear the word 

     DSUS2            D      DSUS4  D
And decide that it’s all too absurd 

B                  F#
Punch the air and believe it 

          B                    F#
When the crowd cries out its agreement 
VERSE 2:
      DSUS2      D      DSUS4   D
And if I get to heaven tomorrow 

       DSUS2          D           DSUS4    D
I will say that it’s time I just borrowed 

      B                     F#
Then look the guard in the face 

       B              F#    E
As he locks the keys away 
CHORUS 1:
G       D     A
Please please please 

D     F#        B
Just before you go 

      G        D          A
Your glass is only half empty 

            D          F#           B
But you’re full on so where is the show 

            D          F#           B     E
But you’re full on so where is the show 
VERSE 3:
    DSUS2      D          DSUS4  D
And I counted all of the jars 

        DSUS2   D         DSUS4  D
And the labels told their names 

       B                  F#
And I counted all of the cars 

           B              F#
Down the avenues and the lanes 
VERSE 4:
      DSUS2        D      DSUS4  D
And a light will shine on you 

     DSUS2  D      DSUS4  D
And deliver me the day 

           B                 F#
And I’ll dance between your feet 

           B              F#      E
Down the avenues and the trees 
CHORUS 2:
G       D     A
Please please please 

D     F#        B
Just before you go 

      G        D          A
Your glass is only half empty 

            D          F#           B
But you’re full on so where is the show 

            D          F#           B     E
But you’re full on so where is the show 
BRIDGE:
E  F#   G  F#   E       F#   G  F#
I count hours; they’re only waiting 

    E          F#         G
But in between you find something so real 

         A
You’re elated 
SOLO: E F# G G A A G A CHORUS 3:
D     F#        B
Just before you go 

      G        D          A
Your glass is only half empty 

            D          F#           B
But you’re full on so where is the show

But you’re full on so where is the show

            D          F#           B      E
But you’re full on so where is the show
