[Intro]
C F C
G6sus4 G7(omit5) C
Am G6sus4 F
C F C
[Verse]
C F C
With his back against the san frisco traffic
G6sus4 G7(omit5) C
On the bridges side that faces towards the jail
Am G6sus4 F
Setting out to join a demographic,
C F C
He hoists his first leg up over the rail.
C F C
And a phone call is made, Police cars show up quickly.
G6sus4 G7(omit5) C
The sergeant slams his passenger door.
Am G6sus4 F
He says, Hey son why dont you talk through this with me,
C F C
Just tell me what youre doing it for.
[Chorus]
Am C
Oh, its a little bit of everything,
Am Em
Its the mountains, Its the fog,
Am C
Its the news at six oclock,
G6sus4 G7(omit5)
Its the death of my first dog,
C F
Its the angels up above me,
C C/B Am
Its the song that they dont sing,
G6sus4 G7(omit5) C
Its a little bit of everything.
[Verse]
C F C
An older man stands in a buffet line,
G6sus4 G7(omit5) C
He is smiling and holding out his plate,
Am G6sus4 F
And the further he looks back into his timeline,
C F C
That hard road always had led him to today,
C F C
And making up for when his bright future had left him,
G6sus4 G7(omit5) C
Making up for the fact that his only son is gone,
Am G6sus4 F
And letting everything out once, His server asks him,
C F C
Have you figured out yet, what it is you want?
[Chorus]
Am C
I want a little bit of everything,
Am Em
The biscuits and the beans,
Am C
Whatever helps me to forget about
G6sus4 G7(omit5)
The things that brought me to my knees,
C F
So pile on those mashed potatoes,
C C/B Am
And an extra chicken wing,
G6sus4 G7(omit5) C
Im having a little bit of everything.
[Solo]
[Verse]
C F C
Somewhere a pretty girl is writing invitations,
G6sus4 G7(omit5) C
To a wedding she has scheduled for the fall,
Am G6sus4 F
Her man says, Baby, can I make an observation?
C F C
You dont seem to be having any fun at all.
C F C
She said, You just worry about your groomsmen and your shirt-size,
G6sus4 G7(omit5) C
And rest assured that this is making me feel good,
Am G6sus4 F
I think that love is so much easier than you realize,
C F C
If you can give yourself to someone, Then you should.
[Chorus]
Am C
Cause its a little bit of everything,
Am Em
The way you choke, the way you ache,
Am C
It is waking up before you,
G6sus4 G7(omit5)
So I can watch you as you wake.
C F
So in the day in late September,
C C/B Am
Its not some stupid little ring,
G6sus4 G7(omit5) C
Im giving a little bit of everything.
Am C
Oh, its a little bit of everything,
Am Em
Its the matador and the bull,
Am C
Its the suggested daily dosage,
G6sus4 G7(omit5)
It is the red moon when its full.
C F
All these psychics and these doctors,
C C/B Am
Theyre all right and theyre all wrong,
C F
It's like trying to make out every word,
C Am
When they should simply hum along,
C F
It's not some message written in the dark,
C C/B Am
Or some truth that no one's sees,
G6sus4 G7(omit5) C
It's a little bit of everything.
