D                       G 
I hitched a ride with a vending machine repair man 
D                              G 
   He says he's been down this road more than twice 
D                  G 
    He was high on intellectualism 
D                             G 
I've never been there but the brochure looks nice 
Am       D 
Jump in, let's go 
Am          D 
Lay back, enjoy the show 
Am                   D 
Everybody gets high, everybody gets low, 
Am                      C 
These are the days when anything goes 
 
{Chorus} 
     D7               G 
Everyday is a winding road  
D7                       G 
      I get a little bit closer 
     D7             G 
Everyday is a faded sign  
D7                     G 
    I get a little bit closer (to feeling fine)   
 
 
Intro 2 
D                            G 
He's got a daughter he calls Easter 
        D         G 
She was born on a Tuesday night 
         D               G 
I'm just wondering why I feel so all alone 
          D              G 
Why I'm a stranger in my own life 
Am       D 
Jump in, let's go 
Am          D 
Lay back, enjoy the show 
Am                   D 
Everybody gets high, everybody gets low 
Am                      C 
These are the days when anything goes 
 
{Chorus 2 times, pause on D7 4 measures, followed by slide guitar solo} 
          D             G 
I've been swimming in a sea of anarchy 
D                   G 
I've been living on coffee and nicotine 
D                      G 
I've been wondering if all the thing I've seen 
          D          G 
Were ever real, were ever really happening 
 
{Chorus 2 times with 2 part harmony, 2 more times 3 part}
