[Verse]
D
Mike got out of school with a rep for raising hell
D A7
No one was buying those and he had nothing else to sell
A7 D
So he turned his life on a dime, seemed like a good idea at the time.
D
He went down to inquire about being all he could be
D A7
And the uniform man gave a verbal guarantee
A7
So he borrowed a pen and he signed the line, seemed like a good idea at the
D
time.

[Chorus]
D G
Some people leave charmed lives
G D
Don't spend it checking their backs for knives
A7
They find that every single thing they thought
D
Leads them right to the place they want
D7 G
But thinking only led us here
D E7
3,000 miles from a decent beer
D C G D
and all we can say is that it seemed like a good idea at the time

[Verse]
D
Jimmy worked the fryolater down at Chelsea Piers
D A A7
When his girl came in to advise him to switch careers.
A7 D
She showed a test with a clear blue line, seemed like a good idea at the time

[Chorus]
D G
Well Some people leave charmed lives
G D
Don't spend it checking their backs for knives
A7
They find that every single thing they thought
D
Leads them right to the place they want
D7 G
But thinking only led us here
D E7
3,000 miles from a decent beer
D C G D
and all we can say is that it seemed like a good idea at the time

[Bridge]
Bm G D
Standing around in scenic Baghdad
Bm G D
Spittin' out the sand between your teeth
Gb G
Makes a man start to wonder
C G
Why life dumped him out right here
C G A
In a Kevlar vest in 100 degree dry heat.
