C
When you find out things about yourself 
        F               C  
That you hadn't ought to know 
         F
When your grandma calls and books you 
      G 
On the Jerry Springer Show 
       C
And you find out you and your wife of 10 years 
F              C
Just might be related 
F                    C
Brother, life's not over 
         G      G7     C   
It's just simply complicated. 


There's other situations that might challenge you I guess 
When your daughter tries out for the football team 
And your son tries on her dress. 
And you start to think that the devil's in charge 
Of how you're situated. 
Life is still worth living 
It's just simply complicated 

Chorus 

G                            G7               C
Life is complicated with it’s ifs and ands and buts 
F                 C                 G      G7        C
It's alright to be crazy, just don't let it drive you nuts. 

My daughter wants to go on dates 
I think I'll let her go. 
But she better not be moving at the moving picture show. 
Or stop by all those conchy tonks and get inebriated 
Ain't it all a caution, it's just simply complicated. 

Now I'm having a big problem with my present day career 
My ship, she has a rudder, but I don't know where to steer. 
Am I country, pop, or rock n roll 
I know they are related 
So I'll just let you be the judge 
It's simply complicated 

Chorus 

F            C  
Life is complicated 
NO  S**T!
