Ricky Skaggs

^{D A G G A D
D} I live a ^A simple life,
I ^G work all day I ^A sleep all night.
^D A couple kids that ^A need a nap,
^G A big dog and a ^A little cat.
^Bm A wife that ^A barks but rarely ^G bites.
So I ^A live a simple ^D 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
Oh I live a simple life.
(Chorus:)
^Bm My favorite ^A book was wrote about a ^G man that died to ^A save my soul.
^Bm And my favorite ^A thing to hear is " ^G Daddy, I'm so ^A glad you're home!"
^Bm And my favorite ^A woman is 5' ^G 3" with long black hair and green ^Em eyes.
^G Still I ^A live a simple ^D 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,
But I live a simple life
(Chorus)
