3rd Chorus
**This chorus is played with only one strum per chord
except for G which is six eighth note strums with eighth
rests before the first and fourth strum**

All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
You don't like my point of view you think that I'm insane
It's not sane It's not sane
(As the old saying goes....Everybody together!!!)
Second verse same as the first!! (I couldn't resist)
(end solo) w/
D E
I'll have it made (I'll have it made)
I'll have it made (I'll have it made)
I'll have it made (I'll have it made)
No no no
You know I'm really gonna really gonna
have it made (I'll have it made)
(I'll have it made) (I'll have it made)
End with Figure one fading.
Thanks for listening....I'm outta here
