Intro- G B C D
G B
Opened up my eyes, looked around
C D
Everything I needed was so easily found
G B
I got a couch, a chair, a lamp up on the table
C D
Dishes and a stove so I can cook when I am able
G B
I got clothes that I put on my back,fresh towels hangin on the rack
C D
Two dogs layin in my backyard and six strings on this old guitar
Chorus
C D G
But what do I possess?
C D G
What can I really call my own
C D G D Em
Open up my eyes I realize
C D G
Much to my surprise I'm broke
I got a 9-5 good payin job
I gotta bossman that i work for but he don't work me to hard
I got bills pilin up that i know that i can't pay
I got a ten dollar bill stuffed in my shoe and I'm savin it for a rainy day
Chorus
I got two brothers, and i got two sisters
I got a grandma in a nursing home and i really miss her
I got another brother that broke my heart,cuz we don't see eye to eye
A mom and dad that love me, but sometimes i just don't know why
Chorus
Open up my eyes, looked around
Everything I needed was so easily found
I got my health, and i got time
And dispite myself I've got peace of mind
I've got a pretty girl I call my girlfriend
and I can call her whenever I'm so inclined
Chorus
