Simple Life

             G                               D
I love the simple life, front porch and my lover’s eyes
                    C                   G          G D C G
Green grass and an open sky, I love a simple life


[Verse 1]

 G                  D
Born and raised by God’s good Grace
       C               D                      G
In a Texas town where life moves at a slower pace
            G                      D
Learned to work with my hands and say “yes ma’am”
              C                   D         G
And that’s a part of me that’ll never fade away


[Chorus]

             G                               D
I love the simple life, front porch and my lover’s eyes
                    C                   G
Green grass and an open sky, I love a simple life
                     G                                  D
Got my guitar and a Waylon tune, ringing out under a southern moon
                   C                     G
One thing that’s always true, I love a simple life


[Verse 2]

         G                 D
Got the real smoke, good drink in my hand
         C                         D                 G
A few friends on the way and it’s sure to be a fine night
      G                                 D
The sun’s hangin’ low, and I’ve got a piece in my soul
       C                        D           G
And I think to myself God it’s good to be alive


[Chorus]

             G                               D
I love the simple life, front porch and my lover’s eyes
                    C                   G
Green grass and an open sky, I love a simple life
                     G                                 D
Got my guitar and a Petty tune, ringing out under a southern moon
                   C                     G
One thing that’s always true, I love a simple life


[Bridge]

Em  D/F#   C          Em    D/F#   C
All  we  need are the sim - ple  things
    G                                D
To see the world with open eyes and arms to hold you close at night
    Em               D                C
But it ain’t always easy, it’ll be alright
