Eric Hutchinson (born September 8, 1980) is an American singer-songwriter. He signed with Madonna's Maverick Records, but the label shut down before his album was released. Hutchinson recorded and released the album Sounds Like This on his own. The album won praise from gossip blogger Perez Hilton, which sent it to the top ten on the iTunes Store, where it peaked at number five in September 2007 and debuted at #1 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart.

Tuning: Standard
-Intro- AC#mFDAE
-Verse I- AC#mF# I get myself up every day DAE To fight this "woe is me" demeanor AC#mF# If things had gone another way DAE Now would my grass be any greener?
-Pre Chorus- BmAE And as I'm struggling on my own BmAE I have to think I'm not alone
-Chorus- AF# Give and take, we catch our breaks DE We all learn to survive A But don't look now F# said don't look now D Cuz here we are, E Living the best days of our lives AF#DE These are the best days of our lives
-Verse II- AC#mF# I fly around the world to spend DAE My nights with strangers and their lovers AC#mF# I notice happiness depends DAE On if we share it with each other
-Pre Chorus- BmAE So when this craziness is through BmAE I'll spend my happiness with you
*Chorus*
-Bridge- BmAE As we're walking through the fire BmAE Isn't it great to be alive?
*Chorus*
-Outro/Chorus- AF# Give and take, we catch our breaks DE We all learn to survive A Oh, but don't look now F# I said don't look now D Cause here we are, E Living the best days of our lives AF#DE These are the best days of our lives
Notes: The chorus should use the barred version of the (A) chord.
The general progression goes something like this: AC#mF#DAE ----------------------------------------------------------------------- e| 5 4 2 2 x x B| 5 5 2 3 2 x G| 6 6 3 2 2 1 D| 7 6 4 x 2 2 A| 7 4 4 x x 2 E| 5 4 2 x x x ------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you want, you can add a little lick after the E chord, harder to do on the guitar than the piano. e|------------------------------------| B|------------------------------------| G|------------------------------------| D|---------2----------2---------------| A|---2h4--------2h4-------------------| E|------------------------------------|
