E B
I promised you the good life and all the finer things
E
Fancy clothes cadillacs and lots of diamond rings
E
The bible tells us that the lilies
A
Are the best dressed of the flowers
B E
But it's hard to dress a woman on $5.15 an hour
E B
This is the good life singing in a bar

Playing all these songs I love
E
Wondering where you are
E E7
Smoking all these cigarrettes
A
And drinking all this beer
B
This is the good life
E
So sad you weren't here

SOLO

E
Now you say that you don't love me
B
And honey that's alright
E
Cause I've got lots of better things that I can do tonight
A
Like wondering what became of all the stars of yester year
B E
As I watched the angels dancing in the bubbles in my beer
E B
This is the good life singing in a bar

Playing all these songs I love
E
Wondering where you are
E E7
Smoking all these cigarrettes
A
And drinking all this beer
B
This is the good life
E
So sad you weren't here
