Intro: G C Am (x2) *CAPO 4th Fret

[G]Everything is going up [C] [Am] [C]
[G]Everything is going as planne[C]d [Am] [C]
[G]Everything moves alon[C]g [Am] [C]
[G]Everything is fine, f[C]ine, fine[Am] [C]

Well I could be[G] condemned to Hell[C] for ev[Am]ery sin, but l[C]ittering [G] [C] [Am] [C]
Well I could s[G]lip on the East River[C] and crash into[Am] Queens all skit[C]tering [G] [C] [Am] [C]
Well I’ve seen the[G] cops and the rob[C]bers
And I k[Am]now they dance the s[C]ame, well [G] [C] [Am] [C]
I’ve seen a h[G]alf a zillion g[C]irls
And haven’t sp[Am]oken to a si[C]ngle one of them [G] [C] [Am] [C]

Humming part: [Em] [C] [Am] (x4)

[G]Everything is going up [C] [Am] [C]
[G]Everything is going as planne[C]d [Am] [C]
[G]Everything moves alon[C]g [Am] [C]
[G]Everything is fine, fi[C]ne, fine [Am] [C]
Bat[Em]ting in the light
My re[C]ptile-lidded eyes
And [Em]all this strung end to end
Is w[C]ider than the mind

Humming part: [Em] [C] [Am] (x4)

And what is c[G]ool, I’ve been playing [C]
I have been pl[Am]aying too long [C]
Now my capa[G]cities are dwindling [C]
Till they’re g[Am]one, gone, gone[C]
And I said, "Ev[G]erything is going up [C] [Am] [C]
[G]Everything is going as planne[C]d [Am] [C]
[G]Everything moves alon[C]g [Am] [C]
[G]Everything is fine, f[C]ine, fine [Am] [C]
Baby can I ch[Em]ange my mind?
I just want to ch[C]ange my mind
Baby can I cha[Em]nge my mind?
I just want to c[C]hange my mind

Humming part: [Em] [C] [Am] (x4)

[G]Everything is going up [C] [Am] [C]
[G]Everything is going as plann[C]ed [Am] [C]
[G]Everything moves alo[C]ng [Am] [C]
[G]Everything is fine, f[C]ine, fine [Am] [C]
[G]Everything is fine, f[C]ine, fine [Am] [C] [G]
