music for "Bright Side of Life"

[Jesse HB]

I was just wondering if anyone could point me in the general direction or even
tell me of where i could find something that has to do with the song, such as
the lyrics and possibly even a guitar tab or chord progression or something
like this. Oh yeah, in case i got the name of the song wrong, you know it's
the one Eric signs at the end of Life of Brian when they're up on the crosses
being crucified (not that you would be up on a cross doing anythign other than
being crucified) and has been redone by such people as Art Garfunkel (for As
Good As It Gets) and Bruce Cockburn (a Canadian musical artist who i did a
report on a long time ago, not that you care.)
Oh what the hell, just anyhting about any of the songs will do, Bright Side of
Life or the Penis song or that one about the universe or anything that Eric
wrote would do.

Thanks in advance.

Jesse:

Can't remember exactly where I got this, but I suspect from OLGA
http://www.olga.net/
They're having a little legal problem right now, but some of their links
may have what you want.
I also have the Lumberjack song, The Philisopher's song, and the
Universe song, if you can't find
them through OLGA. Just e-mail me or if anyone else wants them, I could
post them here.

Some [Am]things in life are [D7]bad
they can [G]really make you [Em]mad
o[Am]ther things just m[D7]ake you swear and [G]curse[Em]
when you're [Am]chewing on large [D7]gristle
don't [G]grumble - give a wh[Em]istle
and wh[A7]istles help things turn out for the [D]best

{soc:}
And a[G]lways l[Em]ook at the br[Am]ight s[D7]ide of l[G]ife
([Em]fl\370jt..[Am].....[D7]...)
a[G]lways l[Em]ook on the l[Am]ight s[D7]ide of l[G]ife
([Em]fl\370jt..[Am].....[D7]...)
{eoc:}

If [Am]life seems jolly [D7]rotten
there's [G]something you've for[Em]gotten
and [Am]that's to laugh and [D7]smile and dance and [G]sing[Em]
when you are f[Am]eeling in the [D7]dumps
[G]don't be silly ch[Em]ums
just [A7]purse your lips and whistle that's the [D]thing

{c: Chorus}

For [Am]life is quite ab[D7]surd
and [G]death's the final [Em]word
you must [Am]always face the [D7]curtain with a [G]bow[Em]
for[Am]get about your [D7]sin
give the [G]audience a [Em]grin
en[A7]joy it's your last chance any[D]how

{soc:}
So a[G]lways l[Em]ook on the br[Am]ight s[D7]ide of d[G]eath
([Em]fl\370jt..[Am].....[D7]...)
j[G]ust be[Em]fore you [Am]draw your [D7]terminal b[G]reath.
([Em]fl\370jt..[Am].....[D7]...)
{eoc:}

L[Am]ife's a piece of sh[D7]it
[G]when you look at [Em]it
l[Am]ife's a laugh and [D7]death's a joke - it's [G]true[Em]
[Am]you see it's all a [D7]show
keep them [G]laughing as you [Em]go
just re[A7]member that the last laugh is on [D7]you

{c:Chorus (3x)}
