The intro starts out with a little riff.  They are based on these chords and shouldn't
be too hard to figure out.


Into: G      Bm G Bm
    C D  G D

G            Gm7                        Bm
I got up and drove to work on the wrong side of the road,
   C                  G            D
and what the hell would I do, I must admit I didn't know,
   C                  G            Em    /D        C
and Andrew came along y'all to add a couple of lines or so,
    G                    Bm                  C      G      D
i've got one I finished yesterday, and i've got 3.6 to go. 


G           Em
One down and 3.6 
C            D
tomorrow and im out of here 
G           Em
one down and 3.6 
C            D      G    Bm   G   D
tomorrow and im out of here 


G            Gm                        Bm
People tell me Ben, just make up junk and turn it in,
   C                  G            D
but I never was alright with turning a bunch of sh*t,
   C                  G            Em    /D        C
I don't like wasting time on music that won't make me proud, 
    G                    Bm                  C            G           D
but now I've found a reason, to sit right down and sh*t some out. 


G           Em
One down and 3.6 
C            D
tomorrow and im out of here 
G           Em
one down and 3.6 
C            D
tomorrow and im out of here 

yeah, yeah 


C          D
I love you more than 
Bm         Em    /D
any man has love before 
C          D              Bm         Em    /D 
I love you more all the stars up in the sky 
C           D                  Bm            Em     /D     C
I think that we should settle down and live happily forever, after 
 D                   G     Bm   G   D
what do you think of that? 


   G          Em
I'm really not complaining, 
  Bm
I realize it's just a job 
      C               G           D
and I hate hearing belly-aching rockstars whine and sob 
        C             G
Cause I could be busing tables 
    Em      /D       C
I could well be pumping gas 
     G             Bm               C
but I get paid much finer for playing piano 
          G
and kissing ass 


 G                     Bm
this is one I wrote just an hour ago 
 C        G
and 3.6 at last 


 G          Em
One down and 3.6 
C              D
tomorrow and im out of here 
G           Em
one down and 3.6 
C           D
tomorrow and im out of here 
G          Em
one down and 3.6 
G          A
one down and 3.6 
C           Cm        G
tomorrow and im out of here


That's about all there is too it.
