One Republic - Good Life


(Whistle)
Woke up in London yesterday
Found myself in the city near Piccadilly
Don't really know how I got here
I got some pictures on my phone
New names and numbers that I don't know
Address to places like Abbey Road
Day turns to night, night turns to whatever we want
We're young enough to say

(Chorus)
Ohh this has gotta be the good life
This has gotta be the good life
This could really be a good life, good life
Say ooh, got this feeling that you can't fight
Like this city is on fire tonight
This could really be a good life
A good, good life

Ooohh (whistle) oohh (whistle) oohh (whistle)

To my friends in New York, I say hello
My friends in L.A. they don't know
Where I've been for the past few years or so
Paris to China to Colorado
Sometimes there's airplanes I can't jump out
Sometimes there's bullshit that don't work now
We are god of stories but please tell me e e e
What there is to complain about

When you're happy like a fool, let it take you over
When everything is out, you gotta take it in

(Chorus)

Ooohh (whistle) oohh (whistle) oohh (whistle)
Oooh a good good life, yeah oohh
Ooohh (whistle) oohh (whistle) oohh (whistle)

Hopelessly
I feel like there might be something that I'll miss
Hopelessly
I feel like the window closes oh so quick
Hopelessly
I'm taking a mental picture of you now
Cuz hopelessly
The hope is we have so much to feel good about

(Chorus)

Oh yeah, oohh (whistle) oohh (whistle) oohh (whistle)
Good good life, good life
Ooh, Ooohh (whistle) oohh (whistle) oohh (whistle)

Listen
My friends in New York, I say hello
My friends in L.A. they don't know
Where I've been for the past few years or so
Paris to China to Colorado
Sometimes there's airplanes I can't jump out
Sometimes there's bullshit that don't work now
We are god of stories but please tell me e e e
What there is to complain about

One Republic - Secrets


I need another story
Something to get off my chest
My life gets kinda boring
Need something that I can confess
'Til all my sleeves are stained red

From all the truth that I've said
Come by it honestly I swear
Thought you saw wink, no
I've been on the brink, so

(Chorus)
Tell me what you want to hear
Something that were like those years
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect line
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

My God, amazing how we got this far
It's like we're chasing all those stars
Who's driving shiny big black cars
And everyday I see the news
All the problems that we could solve

And when a situation rises
Just write it into an album
Singing straight, too cold
I don't really like my flow, no, so

(Chorus)

Oh, got no reason, got not shame
Got no family I can blame
Just don't let me disappear
I'ma tell you everything

(Chorus) 2x

One Republic - Marchin On


For those days we felt like a mistake
Those times when love's what you hate
Somehow, We keep marchin on

For those nights that I couldn't be there
I've made it harder to know that you know
That somehow, We'll keep movin on

(Chorus)
There's so many wars we fought
There's so many things we're not
But with what we have
I promise you that
We're marchin on 3x
For all of the plans we've made
There isn't a flag I'd wave
Don't care where we've been
I'd sink us to swim
We're marchin on 3x

For those doubts that swirl all around us
For those lives that tear at the seams
We know, We're not what we've seen

Oh
For this dance we move with each other
There ain't no other step
Than one foot, Right in front of the other
Oh

(Chorus)

Right Right Right Right Left 2x
Right Right Right Marchin On

We'll have the days we break
And we'll have the scars to prove it
We'll have the bombs that we saved
And we'll have the heart
Not to lose it

For all of the times we've stopped
For all of the things I'm not

Oh oh oh
You put one foot in front of the other
We move like we ain't got no other
We go where we go we're marchin on
Marchin on

There's so many wars we fought
There's so many things we're not
But with what we have
I promise you that
We're marchin on 2x

Right Right Right Right Left 2x
Right Right Right Marchin On
We're marchin on
2x ooh oohh
