Capo 2


Intro Chords:
D   A   G    G    A


D        A 
I live a simple life
  G              A
I work all day I sleep all night
D                  A 
A couple kids that need a nap
G             A 
Big dog and a little cat
Bm        A                G
Wife that barks but rarely bites
     A               D    A    G    G    A
So I live the simple life


I live a simple life
A good coat when the cold winds bite
Leather boots for my bare feet
Now and then a steak to eat
I pick with the boys on Friday night
So I live a simple life


Chorus:
Bm          A                      G
My favorite book was wrote about a man that died to save my soul
Bm              A                G
And my favorite thing to hear is Daddy, I’m so glad you home
Bm              A          G                                 E7
And my favorite woman is 5’3” with long black hair and green eyes
G       A             D
Still I live a simple life


Instrumental


I live a simple life
Couple of friends I really like
A little house outside of town
An old car that gets me around
Complications may arise
But I live a simple life


And I live a simple life 
Cell phone when my old car dies
The Internet to show me where
GPS to get me there
Everywhere there’s satellites
Oh I live a simple life


Chorus
