Nothing But A Breeze

	  		
 



Intro: E A B7 E 

E 
Life is much too short for some folks  
    A                         E 
For other folks it just drags on  

Some folks like the taste of smokey whiskey  
A                        B7  
Others figure tea is too strong  

E 
I'm the type of guy who likes to ride it down the middle  
A                                       E 
I don't like all this bouncing back and forth  
A                          E 
Me, I want to live with my feet in Dixie  
       B7                    E 
And my head in the cool blue North  

E 
In a small suburban garden  
A                               E 
Not a single neighbor knows our names  

I know the woman wishes we would move somewhere  
          A                     B7 
Where the houses aren't all the same  

       E 
Jessy, I wish you would take me  

Where the grass is greener  
  A                                E 
I really couldn't say where it may be  
A                      E 
Somewhere up high on a mountain top  
   B7                    E 
Or down by the deep blue sea  

    A                         E  
And there we'll do just as we please  
Fm                     B7  
It ain't nothing but a breeze  

E 
One day I'll be a old gray grandpa  
A                                 E 
All the pretty girls will call me Sir  

Now, they're asking me how things are  
 A                              B7 
Soon they'll ask me how things were  

      E 
Well, I don't mind being an old gray grandpa  
A                         E 
If you'll be my gray grandma  
A                               E 
But I'll suggest we go have our milk and cookies  
       B7                   E 
In the shade of the old paw paw

A                         E 
There we'll do just as we please  
Fm                     B7 
It ain't nothing but a breeze  

E 
Life is just too short for some folks  
A                         E

    E 
Now I'm the type of guy who likes to ride it down the middle  
A                                       E

A                          E

And my head in the cool blue North  

     A                         E 
Yea, me I want to live with my feet in Dixie  
       B7                    E  
And my head in the cool blue North
