   D         G             D     G D 
Be good and you will be lonesome 
   D            G            A      
Be lonesome and you will be free

On a timeless beach in Hispanola 
Young girl sips a diet cola 
She?s worlds apart 
Worlds apart  


The sprit of the black king still 
Reverberates through Haitian hills 
He rules the sea and all the fish 
What if he had a T.V. dish 


Chorus 
    

Be good and you will be lonesome 
Be lonesome and you will be free 
Live a lie and you'll live to regret it 
That's what living is to me 
That's what living is to me 


  Em                     Bm 
In the far off regions the foreign legions 
           G                          A 
Keep the thieves and the predators at bay 
    Em                        Bm 
While closer to home, some bad boys still roam 
      G                                      A 
The streets aren't safe, so give it one more day 
A        G    G Em G A          
One more day 

The stories from my favorite books 
Still take on many different looks 
And now I'm gone 
Home again 


The time has come the Walrus said 
And little oysters hide their heads 
My Twain of thought is loosely bound 
I guess it's time to Mark this down 

Chorus 
    
Be good and you will be lonesome 
Be lonesome and you will be free 
Live a lie and you'll live to regret it 
That's what living is to me 
That's what living is to me 

That's what living is to me 
That's what living is to me
