Intro/Main Riff
[G] [C] [D]
[G] [C] [D]
It’s just[G] another reason wh[C]y
It [D]all comes [G]down to you and I[C]
[D]Have another [G]drink
[D]Waste some time with [Em]me
We’re happy in th[C]e meantim[D]e
I’ve gotta[G]’ make up for los[C]ing t[D]ime
‘Cause I’ve b[G]een spinning my wheels [C]all night
And [D]I can’[G]t wait, can’t har[C]dly wait[D] to see you
[G]Things seem [D]better off [Em]now
I [G]think I’[D]m better of[Em]f now
It’s just[G] another reason wh[C]y
It [D]all comes [G]down to you and I[C]
[D]Have another [G]drink
[D]Waste some time with [Em]me
We’re happy in th[C]e meantim[D]e
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/l/lit/happy_in_the_meantime_crd.html )
I guess the [G]rain’s gonna’ fol[C]low[D] me
‘Cause its bee[G]n dropping in mino[C]rity
And [D]I can’[G]t wait, can’t har[C]dly wait[D] to see if
[G]Things are [D]better off [Em]now
I [G]think I[D]m better o[Em]ff now
It’s just[G] another reason wh[C]y
It [D]all comes [G]down to you and I[C]
[D]Have another [G]drink
[D]Waste some time with [Em]me
We’re happy in th[C]e meantim[D]e
We’re happy in th[C]e meantim[D]e
Save a little [E5]rain
And wash away the [Eb5]pain
I’ll try and keep i[D5]t clean
I’ll show you what [A]I mean
I don’t wanna[C]’ keep you hold[D]ing on
‘Cause in th[C]e morning I’ll[D] be gone
So long
[G] [C] [D]
[D]Have another [G]drink
[D]Waste some time with [Em]me
We’re happy in th[C]e meantim[D]e
It’s just[G] another reason wh[C]y
It [D]all comes [G]down to you and I[C]
[D]Have another [G]drink
[D]Waste some time with [Em]me
We’re happy in th[C]e meantim[D]e
We’re happy in th[C]e meantim[D]e
We’re happy in th[C]e meantim[D]e
Chords:
G: 32003x (see Main Riff)
C: x3201x
D: 20023x
Em: 02200x
E5: x799xx
Eb5: x688xx
D5: x577xx
A: 5776xx
It’s kind of tricky never hitting the high E string. Good luck.
