[Chorus]
  Ab      Gm            Fm
Life is good, who's askin'?
                         Gm
Wrote my number down on too many 
napkins
 Ab          Gm             
Got tired of, "we'll see what 
           Fm
happens"
Lights, camera, she 'bout that 
  G     Ab
action

[Verse 1]
           Gm
Which is good when I'm stagnant
      Fm                        
And stuck to the mattress, stuck 
       G       Ab
like a magnet
          Gm                Fm
Life is good, but it's taxin'
                 G      Ab
Discourse, distractions
      G                  F
Discotheque, mathematics
                          G      Ab
Gave her my number after dancin'
         Eb
Life is good, who's askin'?
 Fm                                
You are not entitled to my time or 
    Eb
my passion
      Ab   Eb           Fm
Nights out ran me ragged
                               Eb  
Got tired of bein' nice out of 
   Ab
habit
         Ebm
You can ask, you can't have it
Fm                                
Shorty back home snack wrapped in 
         Ab
a blanket

         Eb                Fm
Life is good, who's askin'?
                       Eb
Wrote my number down on too many 
napkins

Got tired of, "we'll see what

action
           Eb              Fm  Eb Ab
Life is good, who's askin'?

[Verse 2]
Eb
She ask in Spanish
Fm                                
Can't understand it, still, 
      Eb     Ab
somehow it's magic
G
Gave up on fashion
Fm                           G   
Changed up my balance, ate a 
   Ab
salad
           G
She got me Nikes, we went hiking
        Fm
We got Popeye's, hopped a red-eye
                          G
We caught sunrise out in Bedstuy
         Ab                        
Know her bedtime I slip out the 
    Eb
crib too late, I meet my fate
               Fm                  
That's bad for me, a casualty, say 
                      G
it's a meeting, it's a date
            Ab                   
Feel like a dog, set my alarm for 
  Eb
5am, and then I left
           Fm
Snuck into bed, disturbed her breath
                     G         Ab 
I attest it's better to have loved
     Eb
 and lost
        Fm                         
Than to never have loved anything 
     G
at all
           Ab                      
But I loved it all too much and now
     Eb
 I gotta fall
           Fm
'Cause it's far

[Bridge]
Eb  Ab    Eb          Fm          Eb
It's been good, shouldn't complain
Ab        Eb    Fm              Eb
But even when I win, I'm drained
  Ab       Eb            Fm      Eb
I know I'm only gon' be sad again
       Ab       Eb      Fm     
'Cause none of this is 
Eb   Ab
permanent

[Chorus]
         Gm                F
Life is good, who's askin'?
Wrote my number down on too many 
napkins
Ab            Gm           
Got tired of, "we'll see what 
   Fm
happens"

Lights, camera, she 'bout that 
action
        F               Eb
She think it's funny how
  Fm                           G   
We always spendin' money goin' out
Eb

              Ab
All the while we
Fm                         Eb
Have everything we need at home
       Fm
Now she
                               G  Eb
Wants me to start goin' out alone
   Ab            Eb              Fm
So I drive away, smile on my face
