E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
[Verse 1]
G
I set out on a road so long ago
Am D
On the path to nowhere and wound up here
G
I'm caught up in the middle of a life I know
Am D
Where the days roll by without a care
G
I see that trace of a smile on my face
Am D
It’s the places I go and the people I meet
G
And we’re all the same here, no reason to complain here
Am D
Pour another cold beer and pull up a seat
[Chorus]
G Am D
Where the nights are always young and nobody ever gets old
G Am D
It might not quite be heaven but it’s sure good for the soul
G Am D
The surf’s up and the sun is high, it’s a beautiful day, man...life’s alright
G Am D G
I'm sittin' around watching the clouds roll by...just another day in paradise
[Instrumental]
G Am D
G Am D
(Oh play it boy)
[Verse 2]
G
Well I don’t need to know where this life is going
Am D
My sails are full and the wind’s still blowing
G
When I'm watching the waves drift by at my pace
Am D
A little like a day goes by in this place
G
Sittin’ somewhere South of a little bit warm
Am D
Where the sun keeps shining through the rain and storms
G
And what do I need but a hammock and a tree
Am D
A warm breeze, cold drinks, and cut-off tees
[Chorus]
G Am D
Where the nights are always young and nobody ever gets old
G Am D
It might not quite be heaven but it’s sure good for the soul
G Am D
Well the surf’s up and the sun is high, it’s a beautiful day, man...life’s alright
G Am D G
I'm sittin' around watching the clouds roll by...just another day in paradise
[Instrumental]
