Before you go on and read this revision, I want to say thanks to 
Melissa who pointed out that what I was saying made no sense at all... 
Yeah, I feel kinda stupid. Oh well. This should fix many of the 
problems! (Greg, thanks in advance for posting this and allowing me to 
kinda save face!) 
 
Just About Right 
As recorded by Blackhawk 
 
Progression 1-first 4 lines of every verse (2 beats each): 
C Dm Bb F 
 
 
My old friend lives up in the mountains 
 
He flew up there to paint the world 
 
He says even though interpretation's what I count on 
 
This little picture to me seems blurred 
Am Bb 
Hard lines and the shadows come easy 
F C 
I see it all just as clear as a bell 
Am Bb 
I just can?t seem to set my easel to please me 
Dm F C 
I paint my heaven but it looks like hell 
 
Bb C F 
Your blues might be grey, your less might be more 
Repeat 
Your window to the world might be your own front door 
Bb C F Bb 
Your shiniest day might come in the middle of the night 
C Dm 
That's just about right
 
 
 
He says that I ain't coming down till my picture is perfect 
 
And all the wonders gone from my eye 
 
Down through my hands and on to the canvas 
 
Still like my vision but still a surprise 
 
Real life, he says, is the hardest impression 
 
It's always moving so I let it come through 
 
That my friend you see is the glory of true independence 
 
Just to do what you do what you do what you do 
 
CHORUS 
 
Progression 1 
My old friend came down from the mountain 
Progression 1 
Without even looking he found a little truth 
Am Bb 
You can go through life with the greatest intentions 
F Bb C 
But you do what you do what you just gotta do 
 
CHORUS
