My List

 D                   A         Bm        G              D     Em
Under an old brass paper weight is my list of things to do today
G                         D       Em     G                       D  Em
Go to the bank and the hardware store, put a new lock on the cellar door
D                      G                Bm              A
I cross 'em off as I get 'em done but when the sun is set
 Bm                        A                   G
There's still more than a few things left I haven't got to yet


Chorus
D              A
Go for a walk, say a little prayer
Bm                        A
Take a deep breath of mountain air
G                   D
Put on my glove and play some catch
Em                      D
It's time that I make time for that
D                   A
Wade the shore and cast a line
Bm                  A
Look up a long lost friend of mine
G               D                   Em
Sit on the porch and give my girl a kiss
        A                  G                D
Start livin', that's the next thing on my list


Verse 2
D                    A         Bm         G                D     Em
Wouldn't change the course of fate but cuttin' the grass just had to wait
G                        D           Em      G             D      Em
'Cause I've bot more important things, like pushin' my kid on the backyard swing
D                      G                 Bm              A
I won't break my back for a million bucks I can't take to my grave
Bm                      A                   G
So why put off for tomorrow what I could get done today


Repeat Chorus
E                    B
Raise a little hell, laugh 'til it hurts
C#m                       B
Put an extra five in the plate at church
A                 E
Call up my folks just to chat
F#m                    E
It's time that I make time for that
E              B
Stay up late, then oversleep
C#m                B
Show her what she means to me
A                   E                      F#m
Catch up on all the things I've always missed
             B                  A                E
Just start livin', that's the next thing on my list
E                   G      C#m
Under an old brass paper weight
      E                  E    F#m
Is my list of things to do today
