The Good Guys (transcribed by Jim McGuire)

 

I’m tired of seeing the picture

G………………………..C…

You’re painting of yourself

G7……………………C….

You with the borrowed colours

G7………………………..C……

That you picked from someone else

C…………F………………………G7.

Maybe you’re a movie

G7……………….C…

Or some best selling book

G7…………………C…….

I know your mirrored mornings

G7……………………..C…….

In rehearsal of your look

……..F……………..G7

 

Oh your cause is oh so beautiful you’re ready to begin

G7……..F…………………..C……………F………..G7

You’re going to play the good guys by singing the good guys hymn

G7……………………………….C……….G7…………………….C….

Ah you’re building the halls with the outer walls

G7……………………………………….C……..

But you haven’t got a thing within

………G7……………………C….

G7..C..G7..C..

 

SAME CHORDS AS BEFORE

 

The innocence of children is the manner you suppose

And you can describe in full detail what we already know

 

Ah your cause is oh so pretty and we’re ready to begin

We’re going to play the good guys by singing the good guys hymn

Ah we’re building the halls with the outer walls

But we haven’t got a thing within

 

But if we keep on trying though our purpose isn’t clear

We just may move the universe we’ll learn to really care

Eventually the whole faηade becomes more than a whim

By starting to build on the outside we’ll fill up the walls within

By starting to build on the outside we’ll fill the walls within

 

Eventually the whole faηade becomes more than a whim

And by starting to build on the outside we’re gonna fill up the walls within

We’re gonna fill up the walls within
