Blackberry Smoke – The Good Life (Guitar)

D/F#                   Cadd9
He was not the kind of man

           Em7                        D/F#
That would walk you to school hand in hand

       D/F#                    Cadd9
He was hard work leathered and tan

       Em7                         D/F#
And he spoke with a throat full of sand

Em          G        A
Me I'd hang on every word

Em             Bm             A
You never know what you might learn

     G              C                D
Son, don't let your horseshoes point down

G           F            D
Never put a blade in the ground

G             C         Bm                  Bm A
Always look a man right square in the eye

      G            A             D
Don't let the good life pass you by

D/F#                  Cadd9
Any little problem of mine

     Em7                        D/F#
He'd spit and say boy you'll be fine

D/F#                        Cadd9
He knew that there'd come a time

     Em7                        D/F#
When I'd find real mountains to climb

Em          G           A
Life can be cruel to us all

Em        Bm        A
Sooner or later we fall

     G              C                D
Son, don't let your horseshoes point down

G           F            D
Never put a blade in the ground

G             C         Bm                  Bm A
Always look a man right square in the eye

      G            A             D
Don't let the good life pass you by

D/F#                   Cadd9
Only ever once saw him cry

    Em7                     D/F#
The day that his own mother died

         D/F#                      Cadd9
Just one tear in the corner of his eye

        Em7                      D/F#
Then he smiled and said, softly, goodbye

Em          G         A
Me I've got two of my own

      Em           Bm       A
And a love that is solid as stone

       A
Like a stone

     G              C                D
Son, don't let your horseshoes point down

G           F            D
Never put a blade in the ground

G             C         Bm                  Bm A
Always look a man right square in the eye

      G            C             D
Don't let the good life pass you by
