Intro 
E  E  E  E  D 

E 
Riding along on the words of a song in my head 
E 
Thinking all day of the thoughts in my mind never said 
D                E      D               E 
I have needed a friend, over and over again 
D 
Everyone sings of a God they have known 
                       E 
Now I have a God of my own 

                E   A                  E            A 
And it's better now, been a long, long time 
                E  A                   E            A 
And it's better now that the words can rhyme 

E           A           E                    A           E 
Gotta have something to sing about, everyone must have a song 
E          A           E                      A          E 
Now I got something to sing about, everyone's singing my song 
E           A           E                    A           E 
Gotta have something to sing about, everyone must have a song 
E          A           E                      A          E 
Now I got something to sing about, everyone's singing my song 

E  E  E  E 

Dreaming away, never wishing to be anyone 
Never a question or reason to find right or wrong 
When I looked at the end, over and over again 
Riding along on the words of a song 
Thinking my time had all gone 

And it's better now, been a long, long time 
And it's better now that the words can rhyme 

Gotta have something to sing about, everyone must have a song 
Now I got something to sing about, everyone's singing my song 
Gotta have something to sing about, everyone must have a song 
Now I got something to sing about, everyone's singing my song
