Anyone got chords for this?

SO RELAX
(Leon Redbone & Beryl Handler)

(1) Anytime you choose, kick off your shoes.
Rest your weary eyes and catch up with the news.
A favorite book will be the perfect company,
So, relax.

(2) Forget about your blues. You're doing fine.
Leave your cares and worries far behind.
Loosen up your tie. Let the world speed by.
Relax.

(3) Life and all its troubles start to get you down,
Laugh and click your heels up and turn yourself around.

Never heard the original , but Terry Docherty did a rewrite after a delayed journey on British Rail (needs Barre G on 3rd fret , and drop back for the F# , and C7 on 3rd for The D !) - Intercity Blues :-

G                     F#7
Any time you choose , kick off both your shoes ,
G                      E7
Buy yourself a one way ticket to the blues
A                                     D7      C#7    D7
Resign yourslf to fate , you know that train's always late
   G C G C#7 D7
Relax

G                               F#
Forget about the garbage on the carriage floor
G                               E7
Ignore the vomit sticking to the lavatory door
A                   D7       C#7    D7
Rely on us to fail , Good old British Rail
   G C G C#7 D7
Relax

E                         C7
No investment , no repairs No more safety code
A                                           D7         C#7    D7
Derailments may be commonplace ,but we'll keep death off the roads

   G                         F#   
So take your tranquilisers or just get pissed
G                            E7
Either way you end up on the undertakers list
       A                         D7   C#7 D7
Slacken off your tie , kiss your arse good bye
G          F#            F          E
Abide with me cos we're coming into Clapham
A7                         D         G B7 E
Relax with those mean old Intercity Blues

A7                         D       G C G D7 G
Relax with those mean old Intercity Blues
