Chords for Howard Jones & Nik Kershaw 'Wouldn't It Be Good' - LIVE in 2008

This is a gentleman who is a great friend of mine, one of the most absolutely talented writers [F] and
artists and producers that came out of the 80s, still making fabulous new records and
it's a total privilege and a great pleasure to welcome him to here tonight. _
Please welcome [N] Mr Nick Kershaw. _ _

[Eb] _ [G] _ _ _ [C] _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ We're not getting too lovey about it, I just want to say what an honour and [N] a privilege it is to
be here tonight and thank you so much for asking me how I am.
So pleasantly.
Love and respect to
this man.
Thank you. _ _ _ _

_ [Em] _ _ [Bm] got it bad, [E] you don't know how [B] bad I got it.
You got it easy, you [A] don't know when you've got it [B] good.
It's getting harder, [E] just keeping life in the soul [Bm] together.
I'm sick of fighting,
[C]
even though [G] I know I should.
The cold is biting [Gbm] through each [Dbm] and every knob and fiber.
My broken spirit [E] is frozen [Bm] to the core.
[D] _ No, I'll be here.
[F] No, would [Bb] it be good [F] to be in [C] your [F] shoes?
Even [Bb] if it [Gm] was for just [C] one day.
[F] Would it [Bb] be [Dm] good if we could [C] wish [Dm] ourselves away?
_ [C] _
[Dm] _ _ _ [F] Wouldn't [Bb] it be good [Dm] to be [C] on your side?
The grass [Bb] is always [F] greener [C] over there.
_ [F] Wouldn't it [Bb] be [F] good if [Gm] we could [C] live [Am] without [Dm] a care?
Yeah, [G] _ [Dm] _ _ _ [E] _ _ [Bm]
you must be [E] joking.
You don't know [A] a thing about [Bm] it.
You [B] got no problem.
I'd stay right [E] there if I were you.
[B] I got it harder.
You [E] couldn't dream how hard [B] I got it.
Stay out of my shoes [C] if you know [G] it's good for you.
The heat is stifling, [Gbm] burning me up [Dbm] from the inside.
The sweat is flowing [E] through each and [Bm]
every [D] pore.
Don't wanna be here no more.
I don't wanna be here no more.
Don't wanna be here no _ more. _ _ _
