Nik Kershaw - Wouldnt It Be Good
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.

[Verse 1]

    
     I got it 

bad, you don't

 know how bad 

I got it
           
You got it eas

              
y, you don't k

         
now when you g

ot it good
  
It's getting h

arder, just ke

eping life and

 soul together
           
I'm sick of fi

             
ghting, even t

*            
hough I know I

 shouldn't
             
The cold is bi

             
ting through e

#            
ach and every 


nerve and fibr

e
           
My broken spir

             
it is frozen t

       
o the core

     I don't w

anna be here n

o more

[Chorus 1]

         
Wouldn't it be

       
 good to be in

      
 your shoes
       
even if it was

        
 for just one 

    
day
         
And wouldn't i

            
t be good, if 

        
we could wish 

        
ourselves away
         
Wouldn't it be

       
 good to be on

     
 your side
         
The grass is a

            
lways greener 

    
over there
         
Wouldn't it be

        
 good, if we c

           
ould live with

      
out a care

[Verse 2]

    
     You must 

be joking, You

 don't know a 

thing about it
  
You've got no 

problem, I'd s

tay right ther

e if I were yo

u
  
I got it harde

r, You couldn'

t dream how ha

rd I got it
           
Stay out of my

              
 shoes, If you

            
 know what's g

     
ood for you
             
The heat is st

           
ifling, burnin

             
g me up from m

#
e inside
             
The sweat is c

#            
oming through 

             
each and every

  
 pore

[Bridge]

     I don't w

o more

     I don't w

anna be here n

o more

     I don't w

anna be here n

[Chorus 2]

         
Wouldn't it be
