By Chris Ledoux [Intro] E A D A E x2 [Verse 1]
             E
Been like a rollin' wheel

           A
In these fertile fields

     D       A          E
Since I was five years old

        E
Between then and now

            A
I bet I've pulled this plow

         D       A        E
About a million miles or so

             E
I have never been nowhere

       A
Oh but I don't care

               D         A       E
To me there is no where else to go

                E
And in all and all I am

          A
Its just who I am

           D           A          D
It's as complicated as new plowed earth

           E
Simple as dirt
[Chorus]
          Dbm                         A
I love my wife and kids just like my daddy did

         A              E
And my daddy's dad before

            Dbm                  A
And their philosophy was handed down to me

             D        A          D
Life is as easy as a hard days work

           E
Simple as dirt
[Verse 2]
         E                  A
Well I live my life one day at a time

            D    A     E
That's the only way I know

                 E                     A
Oh lord I have paid my debts and have no regrets

       D         A       E
And I reap the things I sow

                E                 A
And I'll keep pulling weeds and planting seeds

           D       A          E
Until I reach the end of the road

             E
But you can lay me down

       A
This familiar ground

           D           A           D
And on my stone carve just three words

           E
Simple as dirt
[Chorus]
          Dbm                         A
I love my wife and kids just like my daddy did

         A              E
And my daddy's dad before

            Dbm                  A
And their philosophy was handed down to me

             D        A          D
Life is as easy as a hard days work

           D
Simple as dirt

             E
Been like a rollin' wheel

                A
Through these fertile fields

      D        A        E
Since I was five years old
E A D A E
