(ver. 1)
John Fogerty
[Intro]
D  G A D Bm G A D
 
 
[Verse 1]
  D                G              D               G
I went to a garden party to reminisce with my old friends
  D                   Bm  D    G            A      D
A chance to share old memories and play our songs again
                         G      D                G
When I got to the garden party, they all knew my name
D          Bm       D G        A        D
No one recognized me, I didn't look the same
 
 
[Chorus]
         G   A     D      G          A      D
But it's all right now, I learned my lesson well
             G            D                G      A          D
You see, you can't please everyone, so you got to please yourself
 
 
[Verse 2]
D                G             D            G
People came from miles around, everyone was there
D                Bm      D         G     A      D
Yoko brought her Walrus, there was magic in the air
                G       D             G
And over in the corner, much to my surprise
D                 Bm      D     G       A      D
Mr. Hughes hid in Dylan's shoes wearing his disguise
 
 
[Chorus]
         G   A     D      G          A      D
But it's all right now, I learned my lesson well
             G            D                G      A          D
You see, you can't please everyone, so you got to please yourself
G       A       D    G      A       D
Lott-in-dah-dah-dah, lot-in-dah-dah-dah
 
 
[Lap Steel Solo]
G  D  G A D
 
 
[Verse 3]
D                   G          D                       G
Played them all the old songs, thought that's why they came
D                Bm  D  G         A        D
No one heard the music, we didn't look the same
                G         D              G
I said hello to Mary Lou, she belongs to me
       D                   Bm    D     G      A       D
When I sang a song about a honky-tonk, it was time to leave
 
 
[Chorus]
         G   A     D      G          A      D
But it's all right now, I learned my lesson well
             G            D                G      A          D
You see, you can't please everyone, so you got to please yourself
G   A       D                     G      A       D
Lot-dah-dah-dah (lot-dah-dah-dah) lot-in-dah-dah-dah

[Verse 4]
D                   G               D                     G
Someone opened up a closet door and out stepped Johnny B. Goode
D                     Bm        D    G           A       D
Playing guitar like a-ringin' a bell and lookin' like he should
                            G          D                G
If you gotta play at garden parties, I wish you a lotta luck
       D   A         Bm    A     G          A       D
But if memories were all I sang, I'd rather drive a truck
 
 
[Chorus]
         G   A     D      G          A      D
But it's all right now, I learned my lesson well
             G            D                G      A          D
You see, you can't please everyone, so you got to please yourself
G   A       D                     G      A       D
Lot-dah-dah-dah (lot-dah-dah-dah) lot-in-dah-dah-dah

G  D  G A D
 
 
[Out-Chorus]
         G   A     D      G          A      D
But it's all right now, I learned my lesson well
             G            D                G      A          D
You see, you can't please everyone, so you got to please yourself
