[Verse 1]
[G]We got a world [G7]full of right and wrong
[A]But I prefer [A7]just writin' songs
[C]Kick back and [D]just get along
[G]Just take [Am]it easy
[C]Never understood why all the [D]time people gettin' caught up
[G]In the newest thing, [G7]guess they're lookin' for love
[Am]Should've tried looking for [C]someone instead of something
[D]And maybe you [G]can tell me why
[C]People staring straight [G7]up to the heavens
[A]Want to get this [A7]thing right, live forever
[C]Alright, you better get [D]started sometime this life

[G]Kick back and just get along
[Fmaj7]Just take [C]it easy
[G]Never understood why all the people at the bottom
[Fmaj7]Lookin' up to the [C]big egos on TV shows
[G]I know I prefer the non-fiction kind of life
[Fmaj7]I think gettin' it [C]right is the hardest part
[G]Maybe that's just why it's not the best place to start
[Fmaj7]I think gettin' it [C]right is the hardest part
[G]Maybe that's just why it's not a good place to start
[G7]Maybe time [A]is running out
[A7]Maybe the only time we got is now
