Chords for Behind The Vinyl: "Tonight Is A Wonderful Time" with Myles Goodwyn from April Wine

Okay, here we go.
_ I feel like I'm in _ a casino.
You know where they_
You spend_
Everybody ready?
Everybody got their money down?
Here we go!
_ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ [F#] _ _ [E] _ _ _
[F#] _ [B] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
[F#] _ [B] _ _ [F#] _ _ [E] This [F#] song is an [B] example of taking three [E] chords _ _
[F#] _ [B] and having a whole composition that [F#] sounds like [B] it's going places when it_
Not really is, not musically anyway.
If [Bm] anybody can play three chords, they can play [F#] this song.
_ [B] _ _ [C#] And it's [Em] nice when that [F#] happens.
_ [B] And it's one of the things you learn as a songwriter. _
_ That you can change_
You can have the cake, but it's the icing that changes.
It's the ear candy.
[F#] There's always some [E] little twist on those chords [F#] here.
[B] _ _ It's exactly the [E] same as the verse.
[F#] It's identical.
_ I just changed the melody, [E] _ added a [F#] celeste, [B] which is a keyboard.
_ [F#] _ [C#m] And then I bring it down to a really [B] rock feel.
_ _ [F#] _ [E] _ _ _
_ [B] Same [E] chords.
[F#] Nothing's changed.
Rest.
Same chords.
[Bm] And of course there's [E] cowbell.
You can't have too much [F#] cowbell, as [B] Will Ferrell told us on Saturday Night Live.
So the cowbell is wonderful.
I still really like the cowbell, [F#] actually.
[Bm] _ There's [F#] something about it that's [Bm] rock solid [F#] somehow.
_ [E] _ And [B] of course when you're recording cowbell, a lot of things determine if it works.
And when it's having the right cowbell.
_ Because they can sound pretty [E] horrific if you have the wrong one.
Especially [F#] if it's a [B] cow.
But _ _ _ anyway, no_
And then [F#] you've got to play them.
[E] _ _
[B] There's no sampling, man.
You've got to be on your mark.
_ [E] In the moment.
[F#] _ And you've got to have it mic'd right.
All [E] these things to make it [A#] sound [B] good.
_ And not like some kind of annoying noise in the background.
[F#] It's cool.
_ [E] _ And the funny [B] thing about this song is it's one of [F#] our most popular [E] songs.
I mean, I still do [F#] this song.
We still do this song.
Or I'll do it at my solo show.
[E] And the whole place [F#] erupts.
[B] They know all the words.
[F#] _ _ [E] They [F#] sing along.
They're just [B] having [F#] a great old time.
[E] _ _ _
[B] So I [E] have fondness for this.
[F#] _ And _ [C#] _ a little modulation.
[F#] Otherwise the same progression.
[C#] _ _ _ _ [G#] _ [F#] _ _ [C#] _
_ _ _ [G#] _ _ [F#] _ This song [G#] still [C#] stands the test of time.
People just really like it.
I do [F#] a songwriter circle with Ruth Guss, [C#] their old Matt Anderson, Matt [G#] Minglewood and other people.
[F#] We all sit around and [C#] we sing and we sell [G#] stories.
We sing our [F#] songs.
Typically [G#] in [C#] Halifax Casino [G#] in the school and the room.
[F#] Wonderful venue.
It's been [D#m] going on for years.
It's a [C#] pleasure to work with these [G#] gentlemen.
And [F#] when we do this song, it becomes the [C#] closer for the show.
Because [G#] everybody starts to sing along.
Everybody starts [F#] singing and dancing.
[G#] And so _ [C#] _ _ [G#] the [F#] song works.
[C#] It worked then.
It works now.
[G#] It's amazing how [F#] _ [G#] people can identify with [C#] a song for a long [G#] time.
[F#] And still hold it [G#] dear.
[C#] _ [G#] So it's cool.
_ [F#] _ _ [G#] _
_ [C#] _ _ And it's so [F#] juvenile.
_ [G#] _ _ [C#] _ _ [G#] _ _ [F#] _ [B] _ [E] _
