[Verse 1]
  Am7    G        Am            Am7 G Am
I try to run in a different race
    Am7   G      Am                Am7 G Am
But every time I seem to lose faith
      Am7          G         Am            Am7 G Am
Well, making it is hard, but taking is easy
      Am7         G         Am            Am7 G Am
But I got to keep trying to lessen my pace
       Am7    G Am       Am7     G       Am
Doobie-die-die    Doobie-die-die-die-die-die
       Am7    G Am       Am7     G       Am
Doobie-die-die    Doobie-die-die-die-die-die


[Verse 2]
  Am7    G           Am         Am7 G Am
I try to walk down a city street
  Am7    G         Am           Am7 G Am
I say hello to the people I meet
        Am7           G    Am                Am7 G Am
They're walking their way, thinking I'm crazy
      Am7          G            Am              Am7 G Am
But I have so much trouble just keeping the beat


[Chorus]
         G              C                Dm             Em
Well, my way of life is simple, 'cause I just do what I please
    F                           E                Am
Whatever I was blessed with, it wasn't a life of peace

[Verse 3]
    Am7   G          Am         Am7 G Am
Oh, maybe I'm just a country boy
    Am7  G         Am             Am7 G Am
The city life will bring me no joy
          Am7         G          Am              Am7 G Am
Well it's bringing me down, it's making me lonely
            Am7          G           Am          Am7 G Am
You see I'm fooling with life and it ain't no toy


[Chorus]
        G              C                Dm             Em
Well my way of life is simple, 'cause I just do what I please
        F                           E          Am
And whenever I got problems, I just call upon Aries

[Outro]
       Am7    G Am       Am7     G       Am
Doobie-die-die    Doobie-die-die-die-die-die
       Am7    G Am       Am7     G       Am
Doobie-die-die    Doobie-die-die-die-die-die
