Version 1 Version 2 Version 3WOULDN'T IT BE GOOD - NIK KERSHAW transcribed by David Poulet - Simon A's version was almost there, but a few chords were off. Note the chord charts to show where on the neck the chords should be played - important in the chorus to get the sound right. Also, you could play regular major/minor chords instead of the add4 versions, I just think they sound closer to the original.

Bm[2] You got it easy, You don't know when you got it good. Bm[2] It's getting harder, just keeping life and soul together. Bm[2] C[2] G I'm sick of fighting, even though I know I shouldn't. G F#m C#m The cold is biting through each and every nerve and fibre. C#m E Bm My broken spirit is frozen to the core. Asus4/D I Don't wanna be here no more. [Chorus 1] Cadd4 Bb Dmadd4 C Wouldn't it be good to be in your shoes, Cadd4 Bb Dmadd4 C even if it was for just one day. Cadd4 Bb Dmadd4 C C[2] Dm And wouldn't it be good, if we could wish ourselves away. Cadd4 Bb Dmadd4 C Wouldn't it be good to be on your side. Cadd4 Bb Dmadd4 C The grass is always greener over there. Cadd4 Bb Dmadd4 C C[2] Dm Wouldn't it be good, if we could live without a care. [Verse 2] E[2] Bm[2] You must be joking, You don't know a thing about it. Bm[2] You've got no problem, I'd stay right there if I were you. Bm[2] I got it harder, You couldn't dream how hard I got it. Bm[2] C[2] G Stay out of my shoes, If you know what's good for you G F#m C#m The heat is stifling, burning me up from me inside. C#m E Bm The sweat is coming through each and every pore. Asus4/D I Don't wanna be here no more. I Don't wanna be here no more. I Don't wanna be here no more.

Cadd4 Bb Dmadd4 C C[2] Dm And wouldn't it be good, if we could wish ourselves away. Cadd4 Bb Dmadd4 C Wouldn't it be good to be on your side. Cadd4 Bb Dmadd4 C The grass is always greener over there. Cadd4 Bb Dmadd4 C C[2] Dm Wouldn't it be good, if we could live without a care.
