[Verse 1]
Bm                   G
Moved to a new town, didn't make a penny
        D
For the better part of two plus years
Bm                   G
Got through somehow, losing to winning
      D
And I ended up standing here
Bm               G
Wake up one day, look back
          D
Can't say knew it when you started out
Bm                  G
Me and my lady luck riding in my old truck
D
Got me to the here and now


[Chorus]
    Bm                G
The key to life ain't opening the lock
     D
To a bag full of money (a bag full of money)
    Bm                G
The key to life ain't under the mat
        D
To some greener grass sunny (out in the country)
         Bm                 G
It's the simple things like you and me
D
East-bound down no place to be
     Bm              G                   D
Just driving around, turning that key to life
         Bm                 G                  D
It ain't all worked out but everything'll be alright
         Bm                       G                   D
I'm just living that dream, yeah, turning that key to life


[Verse 2]
           Bm                         G
Yeah, it's something in your ice tea, homemade ice cream
D
Colder beer and closer friends
       Bm                    G
It's a good back porch and a four by four
      D
And a summer that's slow to end
      Bm                    G                      D
It's Amazing Grace when you think it ain't coming along
       Bm                   G                       D
It's a second wind when you thought that breeze was gone, come on


[Chorus]
    Bm                G
The key to life ain't opening the lock
     D
To a bag full of money (a bag full of money)
    Bm                G
The key to life ain't under the mat
        D
To some greener grass sunny (out in the country)
         Bm                 G
It's the simple things like you and me
D
East-bound down no place to be
     Bm              G                   D
Just driving around, turning that key to life
         Bm                 G                  D
Yeah, we drink too much but everything'll be alright
     Bm                       G                   D
Just living that dream, yeah, turning that key to life

[Bridge]
Bm                    G           D
Some doors swing wide open, some stay forever closed
  Bm              G       D
I may not know it all, but one thing I know is


[Chorus]
    Bm                G
The key to life ain't opening the lock
     D
To a bag full of money (a bag full of money)
    Bm                G
The key to life ain't under the mat
        D
To some greener grass sunny (out in the country)
         Bm                 G

         Bm                 G                  D
It ain't all worked out but everything'll be alright
     Bm                       G                   D
Just living that dream, yeah, turning that key to life
