         C                     F                C
I got an ol’ blue shirt and it   suits me just fine

           C                 F                C
I like the way it feels so I wear it all the time

           C                   F            C
I got an ol' guitar, it won’t ever stay in tune

           C                   G              C
I like the way it sounds in a dark an' empty room
[Verse 2]
         C                      F            C
I got an ol’ pair of boots an' they fit just right

           C                F                C
Well I can work all day an' I can dance all night

           C                 F                 C
I got an ol’ used car an' it runs just like a top

           C               G           C
I get the feelin’ it ain’t ever gonna stop
[Chorus]
           F                 C
Stuff that works, stuff that holds up

    C                 G                  C
The kinda stuff you don’t hang on the wall

              F               C
Stuff that’s real, stuff you feel

    C               G                  C
The kinda stuff you reach for when you fall
[Link] | C G | C [Verse 3]
         C                        F             C
I got a pretty good friend who’s seen me at my worst

          C            F               C
He can’t tell if I’m a blessing  or a curse

        C               F                  C
But he always shows up when the chips are down

            C               G           C
That’s the kind of stuff I like to be around
[Chorus]
           F                 C
Stuff that works, stuff that holds up

    C                 G                  C
The kind of stuff you don’t hang on the wall

              F               C
Stuff that’s real, stuff you feel

    C                 G                  C
The kind of stuff you reach for when you fall

         C                   F                   C
I got a woman I love she’s crazy and paints like God

             C                   F                       C
She’s got a playground sense of justice, she won’t take odds

        C               F                      C
I got a tattoo with her name right through my soul

        C              G                C
I think everything she touches turns to gold
[Chorus]
           F                 C
Stuff that works, stuff that holds up

    C                 G                  C
The kind of stuff you don’t hang on the wall

              F               C
Stuff that’s real, stuff you feel

    C                 G                  C
The kind of stuff you reach for when you fall
[Outro]
           F                 C
Stuff that works, stuff that holds up

    C                 G                  C
The kind of stuff you don’t hang on the wall

              F               C
Stuff that’s real, stuff you feel

    C                 G                  C
The kind of stuff you reach for when you fall
