intro : Em

a sunset is just a sunset
but driving with you over the ’25th of april bridge’
now that’s a ride
so let’s go

verse :

Em C
somewhere good , we’re getting by
G Bm
we take the car , it’s an 85
Em C
and we do , what we’re doing best
G Bm
over the bridge , to the seaside
Em C
and that’s me in the surf
G Bm
see those kids do summersaults
Em C
and that’s you , you got some nerve
G D
you give me things that i don’t deserve

chorus :

Cmaj7 G
and i love to see you walk
Em Cmaj7
under this clear starry night
Cmaj7 Bm
if above is where we look
D Cmaj7
down here is where we find
Cmaj7 G
on the beach we never seem
Em Cmaj7
to end a dream like this
Cmaj7 Bm D
this is what the good life is

verse : Em C G Bm

this is what the good life is
heaven’s round the corner where we shelter
heaven as a harmless sin
it’s the sun on your skin

watch it glow
i can almost see
the soft fall
of your dress on me
there’s a show
going on tonight
do you wanna go
or should we skip the light
and that’s me behind some wine
( honey , can you pass me those icecubes in the shape of stars )
and that’s you you are my kind
you are the tonic and the gin combined

chorus : Cmaj7 G Em
Cmaj7 Bm D

and i love to see you walk
under this clear starry night
if above is where we look
down here is where we find
on the beach we never seem
to end a dream like this
this is what the good life is

bridge :
Am
you cannot know if you don’t try
G Em
( this is what they say it’s like )
Am
you cannot try if you’re too shy
Bm D
( this is just the world inside reflected in your eye )
so don’t be too shy

Am
cause it’s my intention
D
to not let the good life

and good times pass me by

Em C G Bm
Em A C D

chorus : Cmaj7 G Em
Cmaj7 Bm D

and we know the world is ill
so nurse it back to health
it’s that time when you don’t care
about all the pain you felt
oh my love
it can not ever get as good as this
this is what the good life is
to meeeeee
