[G] [Am]
[D] [G]
Well since you've left [C] I've had no place [G] to be
I'll [Bm] spend most every day doing [G] as I please
I got pockets full [Dm] of money
Hear [C] it jingle when [C#] I walk
It's [G] a good [D] life
from now [G] on
[D]
[G] Now when I walk down [C] the street
Everybody [G] knows my name
They [D] all step aside and let [G] me go my way
They all smile [Dm] and snicker
[C] in subtle tones of [E] awe
[C#] It's [G] a good [D] life
from now [G] on
Oh and [C] all the fancy [G] restaurants
Won't let me wait inside
They [D] serve me out the back door and [G] never ask for a dime
So you tell me what I'm missing
[C] I'll tell you where [A#] you're wrong
It's a [G] good [D] life
from now [G] on
[D]

[C] [C#]
[G] [Am]
[D] [G]
Well [C] now I could go
Anywhere [G] and live this way
I [D] could catch a first-class trip on [G] an outbound train
[Gm] [G] Because I've got nothing left here
[C] To keep me hanging [A]
[C#] on
It's [G] a good [D] life
from [G] now on
It's a good [D] life for me from [C] now on
