Life Is Good Blues

Beautiful song from the incredible Laura’s July Flame album.

The chords are easy but this one is very best suited to alternate picking for the 
bass notes on the Em, Am7 and C chords. 

I've put the picking patterns at the foot of the tab!

Ok. It's in standard tuning, capo 3rd fret. 

Chords relative to capo’d position
i.e. Am7 is actually a Cm7, G is actually Bb and so on!


Intro
=====
Em


Verse 1
=======

Em
Life is good when you dance all night

        Am7         C             Am7    C
And the world trans-mits electric power

Em 
Messages you send to Mars 

     Am7             C       Am7    C
Came from a crown of flowers


Chorus 1
========

         G        F       Am7   C
Have you danced a-way the hours?

         G        F       Am7   C
Have you danced a-way the hours?


Verse 2
=======

Em
Life is good when the band is smokin' hot

Am7            C                     Am7                 C
   The drummer drums 'cause it's the last chance that he got

Em
Boats light up the river in a string of flame

Am7        C    Am7    C
   Life is good


Chorus 2
========

         G       F         Am7       C
When you know he feels the same thing

         G       F         Am7       C
When you know he feels the same thing


inst
====

Em   Am7   C    Am7    C
Em   Am7   C    Am7    C


Verse 3
=======

Em
Go in soft like the dawn

                                    Am7
And tender green like the shoots of spring

           C           Am7   C
Un-furling on the lawn

Em
Over dale over dale

                        Am7
Over sea swell over sea swell

      C                Am7    C
Never play the devil's pawn


Chorus 3 / out
==============

          G         F      Am7       C
Cause you know he'd do the same thing

         G         F      Am7       C
Yeah you know he'd do the same thing

         G         F      Am7       C
Yeah you know he'd do the same thing

         G         F      Am7       C
Yeah you know he'd do the same thing



Em           Am7        C



Nb the G and F chords are strummed simply!!!



I hope I've done it justice!
