[Verse 1]
The good life is what I need
Too many people stepping over me
The only thing that's been on my mind
Is the one thing I need before I die

[Chorus]
All I want is a little of the good life
All I need is to have a good time
Oh oh oh
The good life
All I want is a little of the good life
All I need is to have a good time
Oh oh oh
The good life
The good life

[Verse 2]
I don't really know who I am
It's time for me to take a stand
I need a change and I need it fast
I know that any day could be the last

[Chorus]
All I want is a little of the good life
All I need is to have a good time
Oh oh oh
The good life
All I want is a little of the good life
All I need is to have a good time
Oh oh oh
The good life

[Bridge]
Hold on hold on
I always wanted it this way
We never wanted it this way
Hold on hold on
I always wanted it this way
We didn't ask for it this way
I always wanted this way
The good life

[Chorus]
All I want is a little of the good life
All I need is to have a good time
Oh oh oh
The good life
All I want is a little of the good life
All I need is to have a good time
Oh oh oh
The good life
The good life

Three Days Grace

Three Days Grace is a Canadian alternative rock band formed in 1997 and now based in Toronto. Consisting of lead vocalist Matt Walst, lead guitarist Barry Stock, drummer Neil Sanderson, and bassist Brad Walst, the band is best known for their metal-influenced, hard rock sound and clever songwriting.

TDG grew out of Groundswell, a five-member high-school band founded in 1992. With Adam Gontier as lead vocalist, Neil Sanderson as drummer, Brad Walst as bassist, Phil Crowe as lead guitarist, and Joe Grant as rhythm guitarist, Groundswell released one album, Wave of Popular Feeling in 1995. That same year, the band broke up, and it was not until 1997 that Adam Gontier, Neil Sanderson, and Brad Walst got together as “Three Days Grace”.

Working with local producer Gavin Brown, the trio re-worked a number of their past songs and compiled a demo album. After handing it to EMI Music Publishing Canada, TDG produced their smash single “I Hate Everything About You”, which would be released in 2003 alongside their eponymous debut album Three Days Grace through American label Jive Records.
