Intro: Am C G D/F# Am C G

         G                     
I got an old coffee mug that my 
  Cadd9           G
granddad used to own
    G                    Cadd9    
Im sippin it slow on the porch and
                D/F#
 its good to be home
            Em7               D/F#
Watchin the sun come up and a dove 
on the wing
     G                           
Im thinkin while I listen to the 
Cadd9
mockingbird sing
   Em7 D/F#     G       Cadd9
That I sure do love the simple 
things

Chorus:
     Am                      C
The best things in life you dont 
plug in
   G                     D/F#
A sky full of stars or a hand in the
 wind
   Am           C          G   D/F#
A long kiss, a good ol memory
  Am                     C
Keepin you grounded and makin you 
whole
   G                      D/F#
Remindin you youve got a soul
 Am                     C*        
Long as Ive got a full belly, and 
           C
a song to sing
                F C
Ill be thankin God for the simple 
things

           G                       
You got an egg in the skillet, I 
   Cadd9               G
can smell it startin to fry
 G                    Cadd9       
Hair pulled back in a ponytail out
         D/F#
 of your eyes
          Em7                   
Sayin good morning, I love you, how 
D/F#
did you sleep
 G                        Cadd9
Might as well be poetry I feel it so
 deep
     Em7      D/F#     G         
And you, you sure do know how to 
         Cadd9
do those simple things

A sky full of stars or a hand in the
 wind
   Am           C          G   D/F#
A long kiss, a good ol memory
  Am                     C
Keepin you grounded and makin you 
whole
   G                      D/F#
