Intro: 
A A D A D D G A 4x 
 
A 
It's 4am and I just got home  
D 
In my motel room so I picked up the phone 
A                                         E 
Figured you'd like to hear about the day I had. 
A 
It's been a real peach of a day to day  
D 
The van had a blowout on the way  
A                 E 
And by 11am it was already lookin bad 
 
(Play Intro) 
A 
Well we drove all the way to Amarillo  
D 
The people are are warm but it's always cold 
A                                          E 
It was raining outside and all our gear got soaked 
A 
But I didn't know the croud would dig our stuff 
D 
Cuz new towns are usually tough 
A                              E                         A 
They were singin along and they knew every song I wrote 
A              F#m  
And things look good around here 
D                            E        
The boys are in the parking lot still drinkin beer 
D                  E                       A 
I don't know if I'm ever gonna get them inside 
F#m             E      
Sounds like a party out there 
D            E 
No worries and no cares 
D              E           A 
Things look good around here  

(repeat intro) 
 
Verse 2: 

Sing all night and drive all day 

Hey there's got to be a better way 

When are we supposed to get our sleep? 

Sometimes I love doing what I do 

Other times I hate being away from you  

And sometimes I cant believe I'm in this deep 

Most times i get nervous inside 

Try to hide if that's my pride 

But I need a little encouragement now and then 

Step out on the stage eyes wide 

It always feels like my first time 

I kick off a tune and I'm alright again 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Bridge: 
D            E       F#m                Gm 
What was I thinkin callin you this late? 
E                   F#m                   E 
I guess i needed to hear your voice and say 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Verse 3: 
I know we need some time alone 
It's not too long till I get home 
Sorry I woke you hope that you're not mad 
But it's 4am and I just got home 
In my motel room 
I figured you would like to hear about the day I had 
 
2nd Chorus: 
Things look good around here 
I'm headed to the parking lot to grab me a beer 
There's a party goin on outside 
This ain't the first time through 
And it won't be the last one true 
But things look good around here
