Verse 1
C 
I've got an  (C major) old blue shirt,
and it suits me just fine.
I like the way it feels,
so I wear it all the time.
I've got an old guitar that
won't ever stay in tune,
But I like the way it sounds in
G 
C 
a  (G major) dark and empty room.  (C major) 
I've got an old pair of boots
that fit my feet just right.
I can work all day,
and go out and dance all night.
I've got a new used car that
F 
C 
runs  (F major) just like a  (C major) top;
Yeah, I get the feeling it ain't
G 
C 
ever  (G major) gonna stop.  (C major) 
F 
C 
Stuff that  (F major) works; stuff that hold (C major) s up
Is the kind of stuff you don't
G 
C 
 (G major) hang on the wall.  (C major) 
F 
Stuff that's  (F major) real; that
C 
stuff you feel  (C major) 
G 
Is the stuff you always reach  (G major) 
for when you fall.

Verse 2
I've got a pretty good friend
who's seen me at my worst.
He don't care if I'm
a blessing or a curse,
F 
But he always shows up when  (F major) 
C 
the chips are down.  (C major) 
That's the kind of friend I
G

like  (G major) to be around.  (C major)

Verse 3
C 
There's a woman  (C major) I love; she's crazy,
F 
C 
 (F major) and she paint (C major) s like God.
She's got a playground sense of
F 
C 
 (F major) justice; she don't  (C major) give odds.
I've got a tattoo with her name
F 
C 
 (F major) right through my soul,  (C major) 
And I think everything she
G 
C 
touches  (G major) turns to gold.  (C major)
