The Good Don't Last

Intro: D (And variations with Dsus4 and D9)


D                              Dsus4
We could have been God's dream
                D         Dsus4
We could have lived the LIFE!
D                     Dsus4
Could have done great things
                     D       Dsus4
Man, it would have been so nice
                       Em
It could have been me
                A
Could have been you
                       G                     D
We could have done anything we wanted to do
                              Em
Ant I don't know how it happened
                  A
But we got it all wrong
G
The bad don't mean anything
                                     D
And the good don't last too long

D                                         Dsus4
We could have watched 'Black Like Me'
             D               Dsus4
Instead we watched the big guns
D                       Dsus4
And everybody knows the words
    D              Dsus4
To "Seasons In The Sun"
                   Em
Could have had give
               A
Could have had take
                     G                     D
We could've made anything we wanted to make
                     Em
So we made 'Wheel Of Fortune'
                        A
And all the popular songs
G
We made a land where crap is king
                                    D
And the good don't last too long

G                    F                 E7
Now there's darkened doorways creaking in my bed
G                    F                E7
I got the Mannix theme song playing in my head
                    D
Put this one to bed


A            A/B A/C#
No Words
     A     E/G#
No denying
    F#m     E
The Radiant is
         B7
Is still here
A           A/B A/C#
Watching
         G#
And multiplying
           F#m       E
And it's not going to
       B7
Disappear
