[Verse 1]
[Am]I am[C] just [Dm]my father's son[G]

right [G]and wrong
Where I [Em]do or do[C]n't belong
[F]To think fas[G]t and answer slo[C]w[G]

[Verse 2]
The better part of [F]living[C]
Can't be measured out in [G]pain
These days, a lot of taking
Not much [F]giving[Am]
All this talk without much [G]said
There's less traffic on [Am]the high [G]road
[C]It might get lonely, that's oka[F]y
Well I [Dm]be st be on my wa[Am]y

[Verse 3]
[C]
Questions [Dm]asked and options [G]weighed
Hands are [Em]dealt [C]and cards [F]are played

All [Dm]is fair [G]in fairytales
And going [Em]out of business [F]sales
Sure as [G]young turns into [C]old[G]

[Verse 4]
The better part of [F]living[C]
Can't be measured out in [G]pain

There's less traffic on
[Am]the high [G]road[C]
It might get lonely, that's [F]okay[Dm][F]
Well I [Dm]be st be on my wa[Am]y

[Verse 5]
If what [F]it's all about is coming
out [C]ahead
There'd [Em]be a lot m[Dm]ore happy
rich [G]folks than there [C]are
[Dm]And if i[Em]t matt[F]ered much what people think
Or [Em]what somebody [C]said
Then [D]i'd be in more trouble
than I've [C]seen [F]so [G]far

[Verse 6]
The better part of [F]living[C]
Can't be measured out in [G]pain
These days, a lot of taking

All this talk without much [G]said
There's less traffic on
[Am]the high [G]road[C]
It might get lonely, that's [F]okay
Well I best be [Dm]on my w[Am]ay
