"Good" by Dave Barnes
Tabbed by: Casey Truman
Note: The lick in the opening and chorus is easiest played on the piano so
I'm just gonna put the notes. It's C# D E A quick then D C# B A half-time.
Play it over an A bass 2 times then a D bass 2 times for the intro.
*In the verses, you can play around with sus2, sus4, or just a 5 on any of the chords.
A
As the sun slowly rises above the river
I look out over all that God has made
Dsus2
Listen as the day starts to awaken
A E5
I thank God for things that never change
A
I can hear her laughing in the kitchen
And the sounds of little footsteps on the stairs
Dsus2
I’ve got all I’ll ever need: a wife, a home, a family
A E5
And I thank God for all those answered prayers
Dadd9
And it’s good
Dadd9 A
I got more than I ever thought I would
A E5
I can finally see how all the wrong turns and the heartaches
Dadd9 A
The lessons in the mistakes
Dadd9 A/C# Bm E5 (Quick change from Bm to E5)
Help me count these blessings like I should
A Dadd9 (Lick begins on good)
And it’s so good
A
Every day’s a gift that I’ve been given
Every breath feels like a second chance
Dsus2
And everything I’ve done heaven has seen
And God just keeps on forgiving me, and I
A E5
Do my best to change what I can
Dadd9
And it’s so good
Dadd9 A
I got more than I ever thought I would
A E5
I can finally see how all the wrong turns and the heartaches
Dadd9 A
The lessons in the mistakes

Help me count these blessings like I should

Good to have her laying by my side
Dadd9
I’ve been given more than I deserve
A
For a past so full of bridges burned
Dadd9 A/C# Bm E5
I couldn’t make this better if I tried
Dadd9
And it’s so good
Dadd9 A
I got more than I ever thought I would
A E5
I can finally see how all the wrong turns and the heartaches
Dadd9 A
The lessons in the mistakes
Dadd9 A/C# Bm E5
Help me count these blessings like I should
A Dadd9 A Dadd9
And it’s so good
