Subject: Just About Right Revision

Before you go on and read this revision, I want to say thanks to

Melissa who pointed out that what I was saying made no sense at all...

Yeah, I feel kinda stupid. Oh well. This should fix many of the

problems! (Greg, thanks in advance for posting this and allowing me to

kinda save face!)

Just About Right

As recorded by Blackhawk

Progression 1-first 4 lines of every verse (2 beats each):

C Dm Bb F

My old friend lives up in the mountains

He flew up there to paint the world

He says even though interpretation's what I count on

This little picture to me seems blurred

Am Bb

Hard lines and the shadows come easy

F C

I see it all just as clear as a bell

Am Bb

I just can?t seem to set my easel to please me

Dm F C

I paint my heaven but it looks like hell

CHORUS:

Bb C F

Your blues might be grey, your less might be more

Repeat

Your window to the world might be your own front door

Bb C F Bb

Your shiniest day might come in the middle of the night

C Dm

That's just about right

He says that I ain't coming down till my picture is perfect

And all the wonders gone from my eye

Down through my hands and on to the canvas

Still like my vision but still a surprise

Real life, he says, is the hardest impression

It's always moving so I let it come through

That my friend you see is the glory of true independence

Just to do what you do what you do what you do

CHORUS

Progression 1

My old friend came down from the mountain

Progression 1

Without even looking he found a little truth

Am Bb

You can go through life with the greatest intentions

F Bb C

But you do what you do what you just gotta do

CHORUS
