Intro: #1 x 2

#1  The cracks appear along the wall...
#1  See the people stoop that, that once stood tall...
#2  See the buildings crumble, see  the empires fall
#1  But I see no more and, I don't recall
   

#3  'cause I see                       (Repeat 3 times)
#3  Nothing but the good things

#3  Nothing but the good, good, good, good, good, good,
#3  Nothing but the good things

etc.

   Nothing but the good things


   
   Well, nothing mentioned, nothing lost
   Count the changes, count the cost
   Reformations, so uncertain
   Keep your station, draw the curtain
   'cause out there the snipers work the ridges
   Building bombs and blowing bridges
   Out there on a darkened road
   The lines are dead and the cars explode
	
   But,

   In here                             (Repeat 3 times)
   Nothing but the good things

   Nothing but the good, good, good, good, good, good
   Nothing but the good things

   I see a green, see a pleasant land...
   Nothing mean or, underhand
   On the fence, or in the sand
   Where I take no chances, and I take no stand
   Against the wall, against the wire
   Against the fall, against the fire
   Against the sale, against the hire
   They say the profit's high but, 
   I know the cost is higher


   Still I see                         (Repeat 2 times)
   Nothing but the good things

   Still I see, hear, speak, do, talk, see	
   Nothing but the good things
   Nothing but the good, good, good, good, good, good,
   
   Nothing but the good things         (Repeat 3 times)
