The chapter is opened and the pages are turned The writting say many things but who was concerned
Where can we run to now, when will we learn? When it′s lost gone forever
For years they told me what I should to do Down to the places I go and who I should talk to But that don′t matter no more since I found out the truth And it feels good to me
The world is turnin′ Forever turnin′ Forever yearnin′ For the love of life And you′re wrong if think that I′m afraid to love
I wonder, I wonder does it not seem strange to you Just how the tables have turned on me and you?
How long can we go on livin′, livin′ the way we do? When it′s lost it′s gone forever
[Talking:] This is dedicated... To all the good men
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Everyday is getting worse Do the same things and it hurts I don′t know if I should cry All I know is that I′m tryin′ I wanna believe in you I wanna believe in you But you make it so hard to do
What′s the point of makin′ plans You break all the ones we had I don′t know where we went wrong Cuz we used to be so strong I wanna believe in you I wanna believe in you
So why can′t you be Be good to me
I don′t ask for much All I want is love Someone to see That′s all I need Somebody to be Somebody to be Good to me Good to me Can you be good to me Good to me Please
I used to think I had it all Then one day we hit a wall I had hoped you were the one Where′s my dream, where has it gone I wanted to be with you Forever just me and you
So why can′t you be Be good to me
I don′t ask for much All I want is love Someone to see That′s all I need Somebody to be Somebody to be Good to me Good to me Can you be good to me Good to me Please
Where do I go from here You′ve gotten under my skin And I don′t know how To get out of this place that I′m in
I don′t ask for much All I want is love Someone to see That′s all I need Somebody to be Somebody to be Good to me Good to me Can you be good to me Good to me Please
I don′t ask for much All I want is love Someone to see That′s all I need Somebody to be Someone to be Somebody to be Good to me Good to me Can you be good to me Good to me Please
Well I can′t believe I′m sittin′ here today Picking on my banjo with a big smile on my face Writin′ new words to an old school melody Hey there ain′t no doubt that God′s been good to me
Oh the sun is shinin′ on down in Tennessee And right now where I′m right where I wanna be I′ve never felt so loved, so peaceful and so free Hey there ain′t no doubt that God′s been good to me
Chorus: ′Cause he put me smack dab in the middle of Paradise In the heart of the city where my dreams have come alive And everything I have, and everything I see Is just another reminder that God′s been good to me
This golden road′s been long And sometimes I′ve lost my way I′ve been down some darkened detours Leanin′ heavy on my faith But where the devil had me chained Lord your love done set me free Hallelujah! God′s been good to me
