C#sus,          E,      C#sus,          E
Thanks for your letter your kind words of comfort
C#sus,     E,           Esus
It's good to hear from you again
C#sus,     E,  C#sus,   E
I'm going ok, taking it day by day
C#sus,            E,         Esus
You know what they say can't complain
C#sus,                     E
It's just these little aches and pains
Esus,  Ebsus,   C#sus,  
I got 'em always now
             E
Sunshine or rain.

Must be nice out there on the river
C#sus,        E,                        Esus
Maybe I can visit, haven't had a trip in a while
C#sus,                          E,  
There's nothing much keeping me here
C#sus,                    E
I see the gang maybe once or twice a year
C#sus,               E,                     Esus
You and me can walk a rambling country mile
C#sus,                  E
Test out these little aches and pains
Esus,  Ebsus,   C#sus,
When all else goes
         E
They remain.

C#sus,      E,     C#sus,      E
Disable we're born, disable we die
C#sus,       E,  
Is that a cliché, I'll make it one
Esus
Hope it doesn't get too creaky
C#sus,    E,                    C#sus,           E
I have found that what you don't know will hurt you
C#sus,                 E,       Esus
What doesn't kill you makes you weaker
C#sus,                      E,
Leaves you little aches and pains
Esus,  Ebsus,   C#sus,
I got em always now
            E
Sunshine or rain
C#sus,                        E,
Oooh these little aches and pains
Esus,  Ebsus,   C#sus,
I don't count my losses now,
           E (end with slow rake strum)
Just my gains.
