I [D] feel good, I knew that I would not
I [G] feel good, I knew [D] that I would not
[A] So good, [G] so good, I got [F#m] you
[Em] I [D] feel nice, the sugar is fine
[Gm] I feel nice, the [D] sugar is fine
[C] [A] So nice, [G] so nice, I got you
[F#m] [Am] When [F]
[Gm] I hold you, I [Em]
[D] know that I can't do no wrong
[Gm] And when [G] I hold you in my arms
[B] I [D] feel nice, the sugar is fine
I [G] feel nice, the sugar [D] is fine
[A] So nice, [G] so nice, I [D] got you
[C] [B] [F]
[A#] When I hold you, [D]
I know that I can't do no wrong
[G] And when I hold you in my [E] arms
My love can't do me no harm
And [D] I feel nice, the sugar is fine
I [A#] feel nice, [G] the sugar [D] is fine
So [A] nice, [G] so nice, I [F#m] got you
[Am] [G#] I feel good, [D] I knew that I would not
I feel [G] [Dm] good, [G] I knew that [D] I [C] would

[F]
[Am] [E]
[C#] Somebody once told me [G#] the world [G#m] is gonna [F#] roll me
I ain't the sharpest [A#m] tool in the [D#m] shed
She was looking kind of dumb with [G#m] her finger and her thumb
And the shape of an L on her forehead
[C#] Well, years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed [B] to the rules and [F#] I hit the ground running
Didn't [C#] make sense not to [B] live for fun
Your brain gets smart, your head [F#] gets dumb
So much to do, so much to see
[F] So what's wrong [B] with taking the back streets?
[D#m] You'll never know if you don't [F] go
[B] You'll never shine if you don't [N] glow
