Best recovery song I've ever heard. This is my story.

Verse #1

D G

No I ain't had nothing to drink

A D

I knew that's probably what you'd think

G A D*

If I dropped by this time of night

D G

Remember way back when

A D

I promised you I'd drop in

G A D D

At one of those meetings down at the Y

G A

Well, they started talkin bout steps you take

D** F#m Bm

Mistakes you made, the hearts you break

G G

And the price you pay

A A

I almost walked away

G A

You could hear a pin drop When this old man

D** F#m Bm

Stood up and said I'm gonna' say it again

G G

Like I do every week

A A*

For those who don't know me

Chorus: (chords or pick)

D G

It's the simple things in life

A D

Like the kids at home and a loving wife

G A

That you miss the most, when you lose control

G A

And everything you love starts to disappear

D F#m Bm

The devil takes your hand and says no fear

G A

Have another shot, just one more beer

G A no chord Intro tab

Yeah, I've been there, that's why I'm here

Verse #2

D G

This ole boy stood up in the aisle

A D

Said he'd been living a life of denial

G A D D

And he cried as he talked about wasted years

D G

I couldn't believe what I heard

A D

It was my life word for word

G A A*

And all of the sudden it was clear

G A

I know for us it may be too late

G

But it would mean the world to me

A

If you were there when I stand to say

Chorus: (chords or pick)

D G

It's the simple things in life

A D

Like the kids at home and a loving wife

G A

That you miss the most, when you lose control

G A

And everything you love starts to disappear

D F#m Bm

The devil takes your hand and says no fear

G A

Have another shot, just one more beer

G A D* 1 2 3

Yeah, I've been there, that's why I'm here

G A no chord Intro tab

Oh I've been there, that's why I'm here

Thanks, Allen. This song means so much to me because I'm an ex-drunk.

I hope country music will go back to it's roots. They rap now on country songs why. Thanks for keeping it real George. Awesome cover George.
