G7    
Well I don't drink as much as I used to, lately it just ain't my style,
                                                                                                                                
 Em                         Am-C7                       
F                G7  
And the hard times don't hurt like they ought to, they pass quickly like
when I was a 

  C-G7
child,

G   Am-C7
And some how I've learned how to listen,  for a sound like the sun goin
down, 

F                G7           C-F           C              
Em            Am-C7
In the magic the mornin is bringin,  there's a song for the life I have
found,

 
F             G7        C - G7
It keeps my feet on the ground,


C              Em             Am-C7    F                              
G7            C- And a mid-summer days sits so heavy, but don't they
flow like the breeze through your 

 G7
mind,
          
C               Em            Am-C7          F                 G7   
C-G7
When nothin appears in a hurry,  to make up for someone's lost time,
 
  
        F                         G           C-C7          F           
G    Am-C7
And some how I've learned how to listen,  for a sound like the sun goin
down,
   
     F                 G7          C-F                  C              
Em    Am-C7
In the magic the mornin is bringin, there's a song for the life I have
found,

F            G7               C
It keeps my feet on the ground,

(add-lib Lead)
 
       F                            G          C-C7            
F          G  Am-C7
And some how I've learned how to listen, for a sound like the breeze
dyin down,

    F                G7           C-F                   
C                Em  Am-C7
In the magic the mornin is bringin, there's a song for the friend I have
found,

F                    G7             C-C7          F          G7    C
She keeps my feet on the ground,   she keeps my feet on the ground.
