F C Dm F
I don't drink as much as I ought to
Bb C F C
Lately it just ain't my style
F C Dm F
The hard times don't hurt like they used to
Bb C F
They pass quicker like when I was a child
Bb C7 F
Somehow I've learned how to listen
Bb C F
For a sound like the sun going down
Bb C F Bb
In the magic that morning is bringing
F C7 Dm F7
There's a song for the life I have found
Bb C F C
It keeps my feet on the ground
Solo
F C Dm F
The midsummer days ain't so heavy
Bb C F C
They just flow like the breeze all the time
F C Dm F
When nothing appears in a hurry
Bb C F
To make up for some old lost time
Bb C F
Somehow I learned how to listen
Bb C F
For a sound like the sun going down
Bb C F Bb
In the magic that morning is bringing
F C7 Dm F7
There's a song for the life I have found
Bb C F
It keeps my feet on the ground
Bb C7 F
Somehow I learned to how to listen
Bb C Dm F
To a sound like the sun going down
Bb C F Bb
In the magic that morning is bringing
F Eb Dm F
There's a song for the friend I have found
Bb C7 F
She keeps my feet on the ground
