[Intro]

D/F# Dsus4/F# Dsus4/G

[Verse 1]

     D/F#
This worlds on fire

Feels like a bad dream

        G
Did the hammer come down?

Feels like a kick in the teeth

         Asus4
All this down on my luck

                     G
Has been gettin' me down on my knees

                 D/F#
Might have been something I needed

[Chorus]

              G
'Cause I been chasin, rat racin'

Doin' anything to win

       D/F#
Now my grass looks like Augusta

I got around to paintin' that fence

       G
I been callin' up my mama, doin' some old friend checkin' in

    D/F#
It seems like where I'm going might be better than where I been

Bm                          Asus4
'Cause with all this goin' on

        G                                      Em7 Asus4
Findin' right in all this wrong and I finally see

                    D/F#
The good Lord knows better than me

G D/F# [Verse 2]

               D/F#
I got a little less in the bank

I get a little more sleep

        G
I get a little more use out of that old porch swing

        Asus4                         G
I got a little more her holdin' on to little more me

       D/F#
Feel a little more free

[Chorus]

              G
'Cause I been chasin, rat racin'

Doin' anything to win

       D/F#
Now my grass looks like Augusta

I got around to paintin' that fence

       G
I been callin' up my mama, doin' some old friend checkin' in

    D/F#
It seems like where I'm going might be better than where I been

Bm                          Asus4
'Cause with all this goin' on

        G                                      Em7 Asus4
Findin' right in all this wrong and I finally see

                    D/F#
The good Lord knows better than me

G D/F# [Verse 3]

D/F#
If the world does end

I'll take the last day slow

      G
If He does come back

I know where I'll go

       Asus4
But if He takes His time

          G
Well I've learned one thing

                    D/F#
The good Lord knows better than me

[Chorus]

              G
'Cause I been chasin, rat racin'

Doin' anything to win

        D/F#
I've made more time for fishin'

And got my old truck runnin' again

       G
I went home to see my mama, been good hearing from old friends

   D/F#
It seems like where I'm going might be better than where I been

Bm                    Asus4
With all this goin' on

            G                                  Em7 Asus4
I found the writin' on the wall and I finally see

                    D/F#
The good Lord knows better than me

G D/F# [Outro]

D/F#                    G
He knows better than me
