Dm                              Gm
I ain't tryna see what's on the newscast this evening
F                           Bb
Nah, I don't need no reason
                          Dm                  Gm
Music in the air, got the Grammys on the cable
                           F
Dinner on the plate, whole family at the table
Bb                              Gbm             Gm
This that home-cooked, hit your soul, take your shoes off
                             F                 Bb
This that feel good, yell it loud from the rooftop
                            Dm                 Gm
This that snow day, all the kids taking school off
                                F                 Bb
This that "Billy Jean," Michael Jackson first moonwalk
                            Dm                   Gm
And I been waitin' for some good news, good news
                      F              Eb
I'm just tryna get my footloose, footloose
                             Dm              Cm
And we been dealin' with the wrong things so long
                                                     F
The smallest things can make it right, that's why we hold on
         Bb
For some good news

Uh, yeah, I'm feelin' like we never talk about what's going right
                                 F                    Bb
My daughter's smiling 'cause her braces fixed her overbite
                             Dm                     Gm
And she's excited 'cause her friends are staying overnight
                                        F             Bb
It's just the simple things that we get out of life
                                        D            Gm
Forget the drama all around me, I don't wanna hear it
                                       F
I swear the more you talk about what's goin' wrong
                         Eb
That's when you start to fear it
                             Dm                Cm
And this ain't that, this is payday with a pay raise
                                 F           Bb
This that walkin' away with the W on game day
                              Dm             Gm
This that good luck, yeah, we prayin' for it
                                                   F              Eb
This that McDonald's drive-through when the guy in front's payin' forward
                        Dm                        Cm
Help somebody, all that other shit just ain't important

And watch what happens tomorrow when you be waitin'
         Bb

                               Dm                Gm
It's a lesson well learned, so praise is well due
                                   F                            Bb
Let's-let's tell 'em, Classified, so-so-so what you wanna do? (Yeah-yeah-yeah)

                            F                Bb
No script to be waitin' on scenery (Yeah, oh)
                              Dm           Gm
From nine in the mornin' 'til eight o'clock
                              F                      Bb
We in the thick of it, and it don't stop (And it don't stop) (Oh, yeah)
             Dm                  Cm
Where is the trust? Where is the truth?
           F                  Bb
It's about time for some good news, yeah
