Stuff That Works chords
Start Jamming...
Got an old blue shirt and [G] it suits me [E] just fine.
I like the way it feels [G] so I wear it all [D] the time.
Got an old guitar, [G] won't ever stay [D] in tune.
I like the way it sounds [A] in a dark and empty [D] room.
Got an old pair [G] of boots and they fit [D] just right.
I can work all day [G] and I can dance [D] all night.
Got an old used car [G] that runs just like [D] a top.
I get the feeling it [A] ain't ever gonna [D] stop.
Stuff that [G] works, stuff [D] that holds up.
The kind of stuff you [A] don't hang on [D] the wall.
Stuff [G] that's real, stuff you [D] feel.
The kind of stuff you [A] reach for when [D] you fall.
[A] [D] I got a pretty good friend [G] who's seen me at [D] my worst.
He can't tell if I'm [G] a blessing or [D] a curse.
But he always shows [G] up when the chips [D] are down.
That's the kind of stuff [A] I like to be [D] around.
Stuff [G] that works, stuff [D] that holds up.
The kind of stuff you [A] don't hang on [D] the wall.
Stuff [G] that's real, stuff [D] you feel.
The kind of stuff [A] you reach for when [D] you fall.
[G] [D]
[A] [D]
Got a woman I love, [G] she's crazy and paints [D] like God.
She's got a playground sense [G] of justice she won't [D] take off.
I got a tattoo with her [G] name right through [D] my soul.
I think everything [A] she touches turns [D] to gold.
Stuff [G] that works, stuff [D] that holds up.
The kind of stuff you [A] don't hang on [D] the wall.
Stuff [G] that's real, stuff [D] you feel.
The kind of stuff [A] you reach for when [D] you fall.
[G] Stuff that works, stuff [D] that holds [G] up.
