[Verse 1]
      D                     A           D
Got a briefcase from work I left in the trunk
                                   G             D
Thought I'd take this vacation and finally catch up
     D                             Bm         G
So I checked out the view, and let go of that ladder
  D                  A            D
I thought to myself, this is what matters


[Verse 2]
       D                      A              D
Got my eye on the kids makin' castles in the sand
                                   G          D
Got my back in the chair with your hand in my hand
                                 Bm           G
Couple umbrella drinks, and some shrimp cajun platter
    D                 A            D
Hey this is the life, this is what matters


[Bridge]
      G           A         D
And I ain't gonna answer my cell phone
        G          A        D
I don't care about goin' on line
    G           A               Bm           A
The office, the boss, what this trip's gonna cost
       G                A
Is the last thing on my mind


[Verse 3]
        D                        A      D
Let the kids fall asleep to that movie again
                    G          D
Talk on the balcony long as we can
                               Bm               G
I can't hardly wait, wish this night would come faster
       D                      A            D
Makin' love to you baby, yeah this is what matters

[Verse 4]
  D                         A              D
I wish these six days would stretch on and on
                             G             D
But I'll realize 5 days from now that they don't
                             Bm             G
And right now I'm soakin' up sun, love, and laughter
    D                A            D
God help me remember this is what matters



[Outro]
          D
When it's all said and done
      A            D
Yeah, this is what matters
