Chords

[Intro] G D G [Verse 1]
     G                      C               G
Well since you’ve left I’ve had no place to be

     D                              G
I’ll spend most everyday doing as I please

G                        G7            C             A7
I’ve got pockets full of money; hear a jingle when I walk

              G          D       G
Yeah it’s the good life from now on
[Verse 2]
         G               C                G        
Now when I walk down the street everybody knows my name

D                              G
They all step aside and let me go my way

         G         G7         C               A7
They all smile and snicker in subtle tones of awe

              G         D        G
Yeah it’s the good life from now on
[Chorus]
       C                               G
Oh and all the fancy restaurants won’t let me wait inside

     D                                   G                     
They serve me out the backdoor and never ask for a dime

       G                G7               C                     A7           
So you tell me what I’m missing and I’ll tell you where you’re wrong

            G         D        G
Yeah it’s the good life from now on
[Instrumental] G C G D G G G7 C A7 G D G [Chorus]
         C                       G
Well now I could go anywhere and live this way

  D                                    G                                
I could catch a first class trip on an outbound freight

            G                G7           C               A7
Yeah ‘cause I’ve got nothing left here to keep me hanging on

              G         D        G
Yeah it’s the good life from now on

              G             D           C  D  G
Yeah it’s the good life for me from now on
