Gm Bb Eb

[Verse 1]
Gm        Bb               Eb
So your presentation went terrible
Gm         Bb                    
All wrong dongles, sweat stains 
     Eb
and stares
Gm         Bb             Eb    
Leave the TV on with the sound 
         Gm Gm/A Bb       
down low             in your 
       Eb
underwear

[Chorus]
C                      Eb        
Don't despair, you'll get it 
     Bb              F
right tomorrow night in Thunder Bay,
 maybe
C                  Eb            
Don't delay, your day is short, 
    Bb              F
you can't afford to wait

[Verse 2]
Gm   Bb                
I believe in you and your 
    Eb
Powerpoints
Gm      Bb                  Eb
I know why you can't stay awake
Gm      Bb               Eb     
Out on Highway 1 with a rental 
    Gm Gm/A Bb              Eb
car             and a lot to say

[Chorus]
C                     Eb         
Don't despair, you'll get it 
    Bb              F
right tomorrow night in Nipigon, 
maybe
C                 Eb             
Don't delay, our day is short, 
   Bb              F
you can't afford to wait

[C Part]
F                Cm              
    So take that laminate out of 
     Eb         Bb       F
your wallet and read it
        Cm                   Eb   
and recommit yourself to the 
          Bb     F
healing of the world
           Cm              Eb     
and to the welfare of all 
  Bb       F
creatures upon it
         Cm                
pursue a practice that will 
   Eb            Gm     Bb Eb
strengthen your heart
