Something good

oh something good
    Em               D                     G
Oh something good tonight will make me forget
               Bm
about you for now

Em   C  G
Get high
         Em      C        G
hit the floor before you go
Em   C  G     Em           C         G
Matador, estocada, you're my blood sport

Chorus:
     Em        D G Bm
But something good
    Em         D G Bm
oh something good

about you for now

Em C                   G
Forty-eight thousand seats bleats
     Em           C           G
And roars for my memories of you
Em    C              G
Now that I'm fully clean
         Em        C                        G
The matador is no more and is dragged from view

Get high,
hit the floor before you go
Matador, estocada, you're my blood sport

Forty-eight thousand seats
Bleats and roars for my memories of you
Now that I am clean
The matador is no more and is dragged from view

Chorus
