When I Get A Feeling

A D A   E   A D A

[Chorus]
             A      D         A
When I get a feeling I try to feel it
                       E                          A
I want to know what it is and what it's trying to say
            A      D            A
Whether I'm reeling or quietly feeling
               E                   A
It's a part of me, I was made that way

[Verse 1]
D
Hello anger, you sure look mad
A
Hello blues, why you feeling so sad
E
Anxious, grateful, eager, afraid
A
These are just a few of the friends I've made

D
Frustrated tells me it's time to relax
A
Thoughtful quietly gives me the facts
B7
Tired tells me to get some rest
E
Satisfied says, "You've done your best"

[Chorus]
             A      D         A
When I get a feeling I try to feel it
                       E                          A
I want to know what it is and what it's trying to say
            A      D            A
Whether I'm reeling or quietly feeling
               E                   A
It's a part of me, I was made that way

[Verse 2]
            D
Things like worried and jealous used to be
   A
An incomprehensible language to me
E
Twitches and tingles, an inner sensation
A
I finally learned to do the translation

    D
Now greedy tells me, "You want too much!"
A
Tenderness is asking for a gentle touch
B7
Confidence tell me "you're doing okay"

E
And joyful shouts, "It's a wonderful day!"

[Chorus]
             A      D         A
When I get a feeling I try to feel it
                       E                          A
I want to know what it is and what it's trying to say
            A      D            A
Whether I'm reeling or quietly feeling
               E                   A
It's a part of me, I was made that way

[Bridge]
D
Happy or sad, there's no good or bad
A                          E            A
A feeling's a feeling with something to say
           D
There's at least one a minute with wisdom within it
     B7                   E
They help me to grow as I go on my way

[Chorus]
             A      D         A
When I get a feeling I try to feel it
                       E                          A
I want to know what it is and what it's trying to say
            A      D            A
Whether I'm reeling or quietly feeling
               E                   A
It's a part of me, I was made that way
               E                   A  D  A E A
It's a part of me, I was made that way
