x--------------------------------------------------------------------------- I FEEL FANTASTIC - Jonathan Coulton --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Intro: [A] [A] [E] I get up early when the sleeping pill wakes me [Bm] [D] I take a wake up pill and fill with energy I power on hard and I check my messages But I don't have any messages I take a driving pill and head to my car I drive around a bit cuz work isn't very far I call my phone and I check my messages But I don't have any messages [E] [G] [D] [A] All I know is driving on drugs feels better when they're prescription [E] [G] [D] [E][Esus4][E] All I know is the world looks beautiful, the world looks so damn beautiful Chorus: [N.C.] [A] And I feel fantastic [D] [E] [A] And I never felt as good as how I do right now [D] [E] [C#m] [F#m] Except for maybe when I think of how I felt that day [D] [Dm] [A] When I felt the way that I do right now. And I feel fantastic And I never felt as good as how I do right now Except for maybe when I think of how I felt that day When I felt the way that I do right now, right now, right now. [A] [E] Work is anything but quiet these days [Bm] [D] I try to medicate my concentration haze I can feel the day unfold in front of me So I take the stairs and hit the gym The phone is ringing when I get to my desk What was a stinging's now a sharp pain in my chest So I take a Calminex and just chill And then it's time for lunch again [E] [G] [D] [A] All I know is work is easy when you don't stress out about deadlines [E] [G] [D] [E][Esus4][E] All I know is I take my medicine I always take my medicine Chorus [B] [Em/C#] (x42000) [B] Sometimes I'd like to slow things down [Em/C#] [B] Enjoy the moment [Em/C#] [B] [Em/C#] But when I look the moment's gone Same as intro: [A] [A] [E] Work is over but I can't stay to work late [Bm] [D] Got to leave and get ready for my second date With a pretty girl that I met at the pharmacy Right in the prescription line I take a pill for my social anxiety I get a table and a nice bottle of chablis Now it's getting late and there's still no sign of her I have another glass of wine [E] [G] [D] [A] All I know is the wine lasts longer when you don't gotta share it with someone [E] [G] [D] [E][Esus4][E] All I know is my steak tastes better when I take my steak-taste-better pill Chorus
