F Dm
Another perfect day

They keep piling up

I got happiness

I had shoes to fill

Walkin' barefoot now

Can't tell north from south

but no split hair's gonna get me down now

A# Dm
Stayin' 'bove the flat line
A# F
I'm ahead of the curve

Take a piece of the sunshine with me
A# C
on a red eye flight to another world

It isn't any trouble

if you wanna come with me

and a place to be

Now the sky is pink

Roof top swimmin' pool

when the night comes, when the night comes loose

All the things you've put up on the mantle
