D G I ain't had nothin to drink A D I knew thats probably what you'd think G A D If I dropped by this time of night D G Remember way back when A D I promised you I'd drop in G A D At one of those meeting down at the Y G A Well, they started talkin 'bout steps you take D* Mistakes you make the hearts you break G And the price you pay A I almost walked away G A You could hear a pen drop when this old man D* Stood up and said I'm gonna say it again G Like I do every week A For those who don't know me
Chorus:
D G Its the simple things in life A D Like the kids at home and a loving wife G A That you miss the most, when you lose control G A And everything you love starts to disappear D* The devil takes your hand and say say no fear G A Have another shot, just one more beer G A D(*) G A Yeah, I've been there, thats why I'm here
Verse 2:
D G This ole boy stood up in the aisle A D Said he'd been livin a life of denial G A D And he cried as he talked about the wasted years D G I couldn't believe what i heard A D It was my life word for word G A And all of a sudden it was clear
Chorus:
D G Its the simple things in life A D Like the kids at home and a loving wife G A That you miss the most, when you lose control G A And everything you love starts to disappear D* The devil takes your hand and say say no fear G A Have another shot, just one more beer G A D(*) Yeah, I've been there, thats why I'm here
Bridge:
G A I know for us it may be too late G But it would mean the world to me A If you were there when I stand to say
Chorus:
D G Its the simple things in life A D Like the kids at home and a loving wife G A That you miss the most, when you lose control G A And everything you love starts to disappear D* The devil takes your hand and say say no fear G A Have another shot, just one more beer G A D* Yeah, I've been there, thats why I'm here G A D(*) G A D Oh, I've been there, that's why I'm here
