Chords for Merle Haggard - "I Wish Things Were Simple Again" [Live from Austin, TX]

_ [C] _ _ _ I wish things were simple [F] like they _ [C] used to be
_ When _ _ _ cowboys rode horses [D] and were heroes [G] to me
_ My _ _
[C] mama was a lady [F] and my dad was [C] a man _ _ _
And I wish things [G] were simple _ [C] again
_ I _ _ wish things were [Gm] simple like [F] when I [C] was a kid
_ _ A _ man just got paid for [D] the work [G] that he did
_ And _ [C] a song could be played for [F] a nickel [C] back then
_ _ And I wish [G] things were simple _ [C] again
_ But _
[Am] _ even the blue skies [E] roar _ with thunder
_ Men fly above us [Am] like _ birds _
_ Nothing _ is simple, _ [D]
not even _ a love song
When the story gets lost in [G] the _ _ words
[C] But there's no way to rewind, [F] it's gone [C] with the wind _ _
_ Yet I wish [G] things were simple _
[C] again
