Intro (x4): Dmaj7 E

Verse 1:
Dmaj7                        E
   What if the truth is required but your tongue is dry and you can't get it
out now?
Dmaj7                        E
   What if you're floating away but you get too high and you can't come back
down?
Dmaj7                        E
   Up, up and away, looking back at the rest of the flocks to the down, down back
Dmaj7                        E
   What if you oughta go home but you bump again, and you bump again

Chorus:
Dmaj7               E
Most of us just won't make it
Dmaj7               E
Most of us just gotta fake it
Dmaj7            E
But ninety's close and ninety nine is almost true
Dmaj7    E                     Dmaj7
       Ninety nine and half, it just won't do
E
It just won't do
Dmaj7                  E
It just won't do, ooh, ooh, ooh

It just won't do

Verse 2:
Dmaj7                        E
   What if your man steps out and you're stuck with the junk and they're working on the clamp down?
Dmaj7                        E
   Oh, I thought I told you before, you never take it so far that you can't take it back down
Dmaj7                        E
   But if you wanna fix something broken, man, it's bad enough we exist on this stolen land
Dmaj7                        E
   'Cause if you just can ignore the past, she says, "What the hell you talking about baby, Of course you can" Ooh

Chorus:
Dmaj7               E
Most of us just won't make it
Dmaj7               E
Most of us just gotta fake it
Dmaj7            E
But ninety's close and ninety nine is almost true
Dmaj7    E                     Dmaj7
       Ninety nine and half, it just won't do
E
It just won't do
Dmaj7                  E
It just won't do, ooh, ooh, ooh    
 
It just won't do
