Hi, girl.
How you doing?
You alright?
[D] This is called the best part of the day.
[Gbm]
[G] [Bm] [Em] [D]
[A] [D] I keep singing
[Gbm] I shall be released
[G] Like a chainsaw running
[D] To a [Gbm] masterpiece
[A]
[Em] But that's alright, that's [G] okay
[C] Grab the bottle [Bb] and [C] slide [D] my way
You dreamt of a devil [Gbm] down below
[G] Sprinkle cayenne pepper [D] in your sugar [Gbm] bowl
[A]
[Em] He's a fool and he's a thief
[C] Got silly little [Bb] horns and [C] pointed [D] teeth
[Eb] So light the cup, [Bb]
raise the shade
[Cm] Ain't no [D] mess [Gm] out on the best part of the day
[Eb] For my best [Bb] friend, he shared [Cm] my crazy ways
[Ab] Now we don't [Eb] wanna mess out [Ab] on the best [F] part of [Bb] the day
[D]
There's a canyon where [Gbm] the echo hangs
[G] Like the ancient bell [D] of Notre [A] Dame
[Em] It's beyond the hill, out of [C] sight
All I [Bb] heard [C] all [D] that night
Is the mating call [Gbm] of the morning dove
[G] Like a Romeo in [D] the roof [A] above
[Em]
Playful, dumb, squealing [C] quick
Let the dears [Gm] of God [C] come [D] out and greet
So [Eb] light the cup,
[Bb] raise the shade
[Cm] [D] Don't wanna mess out [Gm] on the best part of the day
[Eb] For my best [Bb] friend, he shared my [Cm] crazy ways
Now [Ab] we don't wanna [Eb] mess out [Ab] on the best part [F] of the [Bb] day
[D]
[Gbm] [G]
[D] [A] [Em]
[C] [Bb] [C] [D]
[Eb] One big sun [Bb] coming up, almost going [F] down
[Cm] Sun's a [G]-raking in the east, [Ab] I'm gonna love you
Till you [Fm] come [Bb] around
[Eb]
Roll back the cup, [Bb] raise the shade
[Cm]
