I've seen a few tabs of this great song around but they're all a bit off.
The song is played without a capo which makes it a bit more difficult than at first
but don't let that stop you playing it! There's a great live video of Mic playing this song
Chords
I've just put in the main chords as some of the shapes aren't whole chords or there are
strings being played
VERSE & CHORUS
E-A-D-G-B-E
A 5-7-7-6-0-0-|
D X-5-7-6-0-0-|

STRUM
The strum is fairly easy; for the chorus hit the base note of the chord then strum the
chord Up/Down/Up. Play it a little harder for the Chorus. For the Bridge don't pick the
note and strum quite softly. listen to the song for the exact timing.
[intro/verse 1]
A D C# Bsus7 x2
A D
For the sun, for the light
C# Bsus7
For the ride and for the masters
A D
Oh we come to be kind
C# Bsus7
To be warm here and after
A D
We've been out, but we're back
C# Bsus7
Because we're graced in these matters
A D C# Bsus7
And we'll rise.
[verse 2]
A D
And we did a little love, but we walked,
C# Bsus7
We make a sound for the mesto
A D
Make a little call to the right
C# Bsus7
To the ball and to the mast-top
And we...
[Bridge]
B7/F#
...We fool around now and again, we're looking good
Dsus2/G
But just as friends
[Chorus]
A D C# Bsus7
And this is our heyday baby
A D C# Bsus7
And we're not gonna be afraid to shout
A D C# Bsus7
'Cause we can make our heyday last forever
A D C#
And ain't that what it's all about, oh living,
Bsus7 A D C# Bsus7
in our own terrible way
A D C# Bsus7
[Verse 2]
A D
And we lack a little love, but a sign
C# Bsus7
A sign to get a little messed up
A D
Picking up the rules, for the chimes
C# Bsus7
Making up minds and making it last us
A D
'Cause we live alone, and now we're grown
C# Bsus7
And we know what we're after
A D C# Bsus7
And we'll rise
[Bridge]

'Cause we can make our heyday last forever
A D C# Bsus7
And ain't that what it's all about,
[Bridge]
B7/F#
We fool around now and again, we're looking good
Dsus2/G
Just as friends...
[Outro]
A D
So we have ourselves a break, and when we're done
C# Bsus7
And we come to our senses,
A D C# Bsus7
And we rise...
A D C# Bsus7
Oh then we'll rise
A D C# Bsus7
'Cause this is our heyday baby,

This is our heyday baby,
