[Intro]

Em  G  
Am  Em
 
 
[Verse]
                        G
Another dawn's creeping in
Am                          Em
  I guess it's my bedtime again
                               G
And some old farmer fills his cup
Am                                        
 While I'm coming down 
                   Em
from last night's buzz
     G        Am   Em
Ooh oooooh ooh
 
 
[Verse]

Em                            G
I close my eyes and frame by frame
Am                            Em
  I recall it all except her name
                                    G
Sweet southern voice begging me to stay
Am                          Em
  Last week runs into yesterday
 
 
[Chorus]
          Em
It's the life and times 

of the guitar slinger
     G
The day and the night of 

the good-time bringer
 Am                                
Highs and lows of 
                 Em
a sad-song singer
 
       Em
I'm a simple man but 

it's complicated
           G
When your soul's on fire 

and your heart feels faded
Am                       Em
  But I ain't complaining
 
Em   G   Am   Em
Huh
 
 
[Verse]

Em                           G
  I hear that diesel engine slow
Am                                       
  It's my wake-up call 
                  Em
and it's time to load
                        G
I shuffle out into the cold
Am                                       
I try to shake the tired 
                Em
but it's in my bones
 
 
[Chorus]
          Em
It's the life and times 

of the guitar slinger
     G
The day and the night 

of the good-time bringer
 Am                                
Highs and lows of 
                 Em
a sad-song singer
 
       Em
I'm a simple man 

but it's complicated
           G
When your soul's on fire 

and your heart feels faded
Am                       Em
  But I ain't complaining
 
 
[Instrumental/Solo]

     Em   G   Am   Em
Ooh yeah
 
Em   G   Am   Em
 
 
[Verse]

Em                            
  I watch 'em line 
           G
up in the streets
Am                                      
  There's nothing left 
                 Em
but the shell of me
                             
Guitar sounds 
               G
ringing in my head
Am                                
I know I'm alive but 
             Em
I'm walking dead
 
 
[Verse]

Em                              G
  I tried before to just walk away
Am                               Em
  But the music always makes me stay
                               G
The years just keep on rolling by
Am                        Em
  Another day turns into night
 
 
[Chorus]
          Em
It's the life and times 

of the guitar slinger
     G
The day and the night 

of the good-time bringer
 Am                                
Highs and lows of 
                 Em
a sad-song singer
 
       Em
I'm a simple man 

but it's complicated
           G
When your soul's on fire 

and your heart feels faded
Am                       Em
  But I ain't complaining
 
 
[Outro]

     Em
Ooh yeah
     G
Ooh yeah
     Am
Ooh yeah
 Em
Oooooh yeah
 
Em   G   Am   Em
Em   G   Am   Em
Em   G   Am   Em
 
G   Em   G   Em
