Dm          F
You gotta get loose to get lifted
G                 Bb   C
Baby don’t get it twisted
              Dm           F
You gotta get loose to get lifted
 Gm
Ohhhh

[Verse 1]
 Dm
When I was a child
  Gm
Worried drove me wild
       Bb                    Dm
I was painted bad by my own shadows
       Dm
Like a train off his rails
       G
I was always chasing my tails
     Bb                          Dm
The only place it lead me to was sorrow
        Am
I never saw the simple fact
 Gm
This is how I relax

[Chorus]
               Dm          F
You gotta get loose to get lifted
Gm                Bb   C
Baby don’t get it twisted
              Dm           F
You gotta get loose to get lifted
 Gm
Ohhhh
               Dm          F
You gotta get loose to get lifted
Gm                 Bb   C
Baby don’t get it twisted
              Dm           F
You gotta get loose to get lifted
 Gm
Ohhhh

[Verse 2]
    Dm
The word going round
    Gm
From Memphis to my hometown
  Bb                         Dm
Happiness is just around the corner
 Dm
I’ve followed that wild goose
       Gm
But it only tightened my loose
 Bb                  Dm
A total overhaul was in order
         Am
I don’t know all the facts
     G
But this is how I relax

[Chorus]
               Dm          F
You gotta get loose to get lifted
Gm                Bb   C
Baby don’t get it twisted
              Dm           F
You gotta get loose to get lifted
 Gm
Ohhhh
               Dm          F
You gotta get loose to get lifted
Gm                Bb   C
Baby don’t get it twisted
              Dm           F
You gotta get loose to get lifted
 Gm
Ohhhh
