So Beautiful or So What (2011) [Verse 1]
F
I'm workin' on my rewrite, that's right

Bb               F
Gonna change the ending

Bb              F
Throw away the title

    Bb             F
And toss it in the trash

      Bb           F
Every minute after midnight

        Bb       F
All the time I'm spending

            Bb            F
Is just for workin' on my rewrite, that's right

      Bb           F
Gonna turn it into cash
[Verse 2]
       Bb             F
I been workin' at the car wash

     Bb          F
I consider it my day job

            Bb           F
'Cause it's really not a pay job

    Bb             F
But that's where I am

     Bb             F
Everybody says "The old guy

    Bb             F
Workin' at the car wash?"

Bb           F
Hasn't got a brain cell left

Bb        F
Since Vietnam
[Chorus]
Bb
But I say

F7
Help me, help me

F
Help me, help me

Bb
Ohhh

F
Thank you

Bb
I'd no idea

              F
That you were there

     Bb     F7
When I said help me, help me

F
Help me, help me

Bb
Ohhh

F
Thank you

    Bb              F
For listening to my prayer

[Verse 4]
     Bb            F
I'll eliminate the pages

          Bb            F
Where the father has a breakdown

       Bb               F
And he has to leave the family

       Bb              F
But he really meant no harm

      Bb           F
Gonna substitute a car chase

      Bb               F
And a race across the rooftops

          Bb               F
Where the father saves the children

       Bb                F
And he holds them in his arms
[Chorus]
Bb
I said

F7
Help me, help me

F
Help me, help me

Bb
Ohh

F
Thank you

Bb
I'd no idea

              F
That you were there

Bb
When I said

F7
Help me, help me

F
Help me, help me

Bb
Ohhh

F
Thank you

    Bb              F
For listening to my prayer
