This song is too simple to be true:

For the verse, just play:

Em, D, C, D,

And at the line with the *, play C, C, then play the normal part again.

And the chorus is:

G, D, C, D,

I've been to this bar where I met a girl

she told me life was hard livin' in this world

next day I went to an old friend of mine

he told me his job payed good

*but he was lookin' for better times

lookin' for better times

Last night I watched tv in my room

I was so tired I didn't care what channel I tuned

I saw colours no grey or black and white

it's good to have nothing on your mind and

*you know what I mean

you know what I mean

There must be some kind of a slow change

getting hold of me

I can see the colours don't seem

the same as they used to be

there must be some kind of a slow change

getting hold of me

some kind of a slow change

getting hold of me

I got a letter from a girl she said she loved me so

I didn't answer 'cause I had a girl of my own

I got your name and number in my mind

you'll never know when you'll be

*lookin' for better times

lookin' for better times

Then repeat the chorus,

Next there is a solo, but we didn't write it down (Hey, we're no

geniusses, so if you want to play it, just fool around in E, that's what

they do on the record.....)

Repeat the chorus again.

All together this is a really nice song to play, but if you don't sing

with it it's rather boring (I know: the doctor doesn't allow me to sing,

because I don't seem to do it right). It doesn't matter if you sing out

of tune, that's what he does.... (You should listen to Henk Koorn when

he's singing 'Eugene' during a gig)
