Thats Why Im Here

	  		Verse 1  
  
D              G   
No I ain't had nothing to drink   
A                      D   
I knew that's probably what you'd think   
G            A               D    
If I dropped by this time of night   
D        G   
Remember way back when   
  A             D   
I promised you I'd drop in   
G               A                    D   D   
At one of those meetings down at the Y   
      G                   A   
Well, they started talkin bout steps you take   
     D         
Mistakes you made, the hearts you break   
        G             G   
And the price you pay   
         A         A      
I almost walked away   
          G               A   
You could hear a pin drop When this old man   
   D            
Stood up and said I'm gonna' say it again   
       G            G   
Like I do every week   
              A            A    
For those who don't know me   
   
     
   
D               G   
It's the simple things in life   
         A                  D   
Like the kids at home and a loving wife   
         G                        A   
That you miss the most,  when you lose control   
         G                        A   
And everything you love starts to disappear   
    D                   
The devil takes your hand and says no fear   
          G         A   
Have another shot,  just one more beer   
                 G       A                      
Yeah,  I've been there,                that's why I'm here 
  
   
Verse 2   
D                  G   
This ole boy stood up in the aisle   
A                       D   
Said he'd been living a life of denial   
       G           A                   D      D   
And he cried as he talked about wasted years   
D            G   
I couldn't believe what I heard   
A              D   
It was my life word for word   
G                     A            A    
And all of the sudden it was clear   
   
Chorus   
   
           G                A       
I know for us it may be too late    
             G   
But it would mean the world to me   
            A   
If you were there when I stand to say   
   
   
   
D               G   
It's the simple things in life   
         A                  D   
Like the kids at home and a loving wife   
         G                        A   
That you miss the most,  when you lose control   
         G                        A   
And everything you love starts to disappear   
    D                   
The devil takes your hand and says no fear   
          G         A   
Have another shot,  just one more beer   
                 G       A                  D      
Yeah, I've been there,      that's why I'm here   
                 G   A  no chord                   
Oh I've been there,              that's why I'm here
