Am Em C
Am Em C


[VERSE 1]
     G              Cmaj7        
They served you champagne like a 
Em
hero
         G              C         
When you landed someone carried 
      Em
your bag
     G           C              Em
From here on out you're patient zero
         G             Cmaj7      
Smelling ether as they hand you 
  Em
the rag


[CHORUS]
C/G     G
Life is good
    D
You look around and think I'm in the
C/G           G         D
Right neighborhood, but honey you 
just moved in
C/G     G
Life is grand
    D                            
And wouldn't you like to have it 
Am Em C
go as planned
Am Em C      Cmaj7
Go as planned


[VERSE 2]
G           Cmaj7         Em
Hip hip hooray, hocus pocus
          G             Cmaj7     
With some magic you can fly 
      Em
through the air
     G              Cmaj7       
But when you're the guy pulling 
Em
focus
          G               C       
There are people who will wish you
              Em
 weren't there


[CHORUS]
C/G     G
Life is good
    D
You look around and think I'm in the
C/G           G         D
Right neighborhood, but honey you 
just moved in
C/G     G
Life is grand
    D                            
And wouldn't you like to have it 
Am Em Cmaj7
go as planned
Am Em Cmaj7
Go as planned


[BRIDGE]
   D
Go west young man, go west
                   Am
Take a real screen test, doesn't 
count as a job well done
    D
The locusts had their day, the 
suckers pay and pay
Am
Carmen Sternwood probably pulled 
that trigger for fun
           Em          Cmaj7
And in the hills where hope is such 
a
Am          Em      Cmaj7
Constant companion, constant 
companion
Am     Em       Cmaj7            
Close enough to almost touCh the 
Am            Em
lights of the canyon
Cmaj7                     Am     
Lights of the canyon, the lights 
       Em
of the canyon


[VERSE 3]
    G             C        Em
The news filtered over the transom
       G             Cmaj7         
That a villain ended up   with the 
Em
part
    G           Cmaj7         Em
You paid your respects like a ransom
     G               Cmaj7        
To a moment that was doomed from 
   Em
the start


[CHORUS]
C/G     G
Life is good
    D
You look around and think I'm in the
C/G           G         D
Right neighborhood, but honey you 
don't belong
C/G     G
Life is grand
    D                            
And wouldn't you like to have it 
Am Em Cmaj7
go as planned
Am Em Cmaj7
Go as planned


[OUTRO]
Am         Em          Cmaj7
And in the hills where hope is such 
a
Am          Em      Cmaj7
Constant companion, constant 
companion
Am     Em       Cmaj7            
Close enough to almost touch the 
Am            Em
lights of the canyon
Cmaj7                     Am     
Lights of the canyon, the lights 
       Em
of the canyon
Cmaj7                     Am     
Lights of the canyon, the lights 
       Em
of the canyon
Cmaj7                     Am     
Lights of the canyon, the lights 
       Em     Cmaj7
of the canyon
    Am            Em      C
The lights of the canyon
