CAPO on the First Fret

Intro: G,  Dm,  C,  G
Verse 1:
             G
Sometimes I'm mad at the world, Mad at this town
 Dm
Mad 'cause I can't lose the same five pounds
     C                                          G
That I've been tryin' to lose for three or four years now.
            G
Sometimes I feel like a truck that just won't run
       Dm
On the side of the road in the July sun
       C                                      G
There ain't another car for miles That I can thumb down.

Prechorus:
         F                           C             G
I guess every now and then, You're gonna land on a bad day
       F            C                   D
Though I still do,  I know I can't complain.

Chorus
        G
'Cause I love what I do.  Love where I'm at
       F
Love a strong cup of coffee and my old black hat
   C                                  G
My big wool blanket Sleepin' in my cowboy boots
          G
I love my old bird dog, I like to watch him run
   F                           C
My red guitar I bang around on some
       Dm  C F   C  G            Dm  C F  C   G
And I love lovin' you.  Baby, I love lovin' you.

Verse 2:
     G 
Now heaven to me it's a simple thing
          Dm
It's just you and me, And a phone that don't ring
 C                              G
Popcorn poppin' on a lay around Friday night.
  G
Seein' you smile when I wake up
             Dm
The way you slide to the middle of my pick up truck
     C                                   G
The way you say baby, it's all gonna be all right

Prechorus:
     F                C                 G
When I walk in at the end of a worn out day
     F              C            D
And I see you baby, how can I complain.

Chorus:
         G
'Cause I love what I do.  Love where I'm at
       F
Love a strong cup of coffee and my old black hat
    C                                     G
My big wool blanket, Sleepin' in my cowboy boots
          G
I love my old bird dog, I like to watch him run
   F                           C
My red guitar I bang around on some
       Dm C  F  C   G             Dm C  F  C  G
And I love lovin' you.  Baby, I love lovin' you.  Yes, I do.

Chorus 2:
        G
Well, I love where I've been. I don't look back
        F
I thank God for the life he lets me have
    C                                       G
My big wool blanket, Sleepin' in my cowboy boots
          G
I love my old bird dog, I like to watch him run
  F                             C
My red guitar I bang around on some
       Dm  C F  C  G             Dm  C  F C  G
And I love loving you.  Baby, I love lovin' you.
