INTRO: G People talking so loud
C I can't hear myself think
G And that's not a bad thing
 The waiter keeps smiling
C As I'm riding on this river of caffeine
G And that's not a bad thing
D I used to feel sorry for someone like me
C In a corner booth pretending to read
G On a Friday night
DG I used to say, it just ain't right
D How could anybody ever have any fun
C Without somebody, without someone
EmCC-G-G-C It never dawned on me, the possibility
G That it's not a bad thing
 'How will I live without you'
C Tonight you know they're few and far between
G The waiter's name is Joey
 He told me and that's when I noticed
C He ain't wearing any ring
G And that's not a bad thing
D There's a tug on the edge of my heart
C It's you again saying, "Don't you start
G Letting go of me"
DG But I'm not listening
D For once in my life, I'll feel what I feel
C Let it be, let it be real
EmCC-G-G-C Let it flow through me and wash me clean
GC Yeah, it's not a bad thing____
GCC-G-G-C It's not a bad thing____
G As I'm driving home I'm thinking
 The worst might be over
C Or maybe I'm a little bit naïve
G But the streetlights seem brighter
 As I walk up to my front door
N.C. C I'm all alone when I turn the key
N.C. G And it's not a bad thing
