Verse 1
(G major) Well, (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (Dsus4) (D major) (G major)
there's a storm brewin' (C major) o 'er this valley
And the (G major) clouds,
they've been (C major) rollin' in (G major) (C major)
(G major) The river's full of (C major) (D major) spring rain, (G major)
(D major) and my, my nerves are (G major) growing (D major) thin
But (C major) (D major) there's a (G major) story I (C major) want to tell you,
it's a (G major) sad one (C major) but it's true
(G major) I (C major) know (G major) that (C major) once that
you've (G major) heard it, (C major)
And (Dsus4) you'll agree (D major) it's a sad one, (G major) too.
(C major) Cause everybody want (D major) s the (G major) good life, (D major)
(C major) They want the cake you need it to,
They want the things that (D major)
the (G major) good life brings,
And don't care (D major) about me or you.
(G major) Well, (D major) I was (G major) born here, (C major) in this valley,
Back in (G major) nineteen an (C major) d fifty -t (G major) wo. (C major) (G major)
The grass was (C major) green, the air was clean,
(Dsus4) And (D major) everyone you (G major) saw you (D major) knew. (C major)
Well, (G major) Mom and Pa, (C major) they were (G major) farmers, (C major)
And (G major) so were our (C major) neighbors too. (G major) (C major)
Yes, our (G major) way of life (C major) was free of strife,
(D major) And that's the only way that we knew. (G major) (C major)
But everybody want (D major) s the (G major) good life, (D major) (C major)
They want the cake you need it to,
They want the things (D major) that
the (G major) good life brings,
And don't care (D major) about me or (G major) you.
Well, growin' up in (C major) this valley,
there were no (G major) problems that (C major) we (G major) knew.
(C major) We (G major) used to play and (C major) fish on the (G major) river,
once I (D major) even drank the (G major) water (D major) , too. (C major)
But it was (G major) clean and (C major) clear and (G major) beautiful, (C major)
full of (G major) life and (C major) memories, (G major) too.
We (C major) used to (G major) love the sound
as (C major) it would weave around in
(Dsus4) the (D major) valley that we knew. (G major) (C major)
But everybody want (D major) s the (G major) good life. (C major)
They want the cake you need it to.
They want the things (D major) that
the (G major) good life brings
and don't care (D major) about me or you. (G major)
Well, that was years (C major) ago in the valley
It's (G major) much, (C major) much different now
No (G major) peace, (C major) no calm, no tranquility
But (D major) lots of cars and (G major) homes (D major) and a factory
But (C major) the (G major) river tells the (C major) whole story
It's a (G major) sad one, but (C major) it's true (G major)
(C major) Now she's (G major) void of life
And (C major) though that just ain't right
They say (D major) there's nothing
that we can do (G major) (C major)
Cause everybody wants (D major) the (G major) good life (C major)
They want their cake and eat it too
They want the things that
(D major) the good (G major) life brings
And don't care (D major) about me or you (G major)
But that's not the end (C major) of the story
There's more to (G major) it than meets the eye (C major)
It (G major) may be hard to (C major) understand (G major) it, (C major)
(Dsus4) but you can (D major) do it if (G major) you (D major) try. (C major)
You see, I (G major) drive around (C major) in my (G major) big truck (C major) .
(G major) I have a fancy home and I'm no fool.
(C major) But when it (G major) looks like that,
(C major) you have to (G major) face the fact
(D major) you're no exception to (G major) the rule. (E minor)
(C major) Cause everybody wants (D major) the (G major) good life, (D major)
(C major) they want the cake you need it to.
They want the things
that (D major) the (G major) good life brings,
(D major) an d they go and do it too. (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (D major) (G major)
(D major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major)
(C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (Dsus4) (C major) (Dsus4) (D major) (G major)
Thank for watching! you
