      C               G
I’ve done too much of some things

     C            G  
And not enough of others

          C          G            C          G
Just like all life lovers

      F               C
I’ve changed and changed 

      F              C
and changed and changed

      F             C            F            C  
From one thing to another

         C             G
I’ve had complicated dealings

       C          G      
With complicated feelings

      C              G        C            G
And I’ve cut and bruised and torn

       F            C               F
I made blinds on the windows of my mind 

         C            F            C         F         C
with the time that my back once wore

    G
I’m a single person in this universe

And I am here to say to you:

         C
On the day that I die I’ll just give a smile

And fly into the blue CHORUS (Cause we’re all just)

   G#
Protons, Neutrons, Electrons

                Gmin
That rest on a Sunday

                             G#
Work on a Monday and someday soon

                     A#
We’ll be singing the old tunes

Gmin G# Zip-A-dee-doo-dah, Zip-A-dee-doo

        G#                A#
I’ll be sitting on the porch with you

                    G#                  G
Then I’ll die and I’ll fly off into the blue

Verse 2 (same) Some night I see the world with its winds and its whirls And I feel undefeated But every day I see the girl with the strawberry curl And I’m too shy to meet her Some nights I go to bed There’s a ghost in the air above my head And I tremble Sometimes I eat KFC Other times I give up meat And I just eat lentils I’m a singe person in the universe And I am here to sing a song About the day that I was born Till the day that I’ll be gone And the song won’t last for long (Cause we’re all just…) CHORUS (different lyrics) Verse 3 And enemy is a remedy to a malady in your melody If you’re strong not brittle And a friend is a friend Is a friend to the end and it’s oh so simple A man is a man and a woman is a woman But the times we are living in demand That a man can change from a man to a woman And a woman can demand to be a man We’re just flesh with socks and locks and frocks And I am here to say to you On the day that I die I’ll just give a smile and fly into the blue (Cause we’re all just…)
