What It Is

Capo: 4th fret

[Intro]
G  D  Em  C
 
 
[Verse 1]
G                          C
Turned off my phone today, stuck it in the drawer
         G                               D
It's too loud inside this empty house so I walked out the door
   G                               C
Surrounded by what God had made, I couldn't help but stare
  G                                        D
I need a little face to face time with the man upstairs
        Em               D              C
Looking at my life, it's time to make a change
              Am7          G                C
So, I'm gonna spend my day slowing down the pace
 
 
[Chorus]
      G                    C          G
I got breath to breathe, a heart that beats
      D
And a life that's full of simple things
      C                                              D
And a little piece of Heaven right here in front of me
        G                  C        G
I got a truck that runs, a dog that hunts
       D
With a good old fashion woman's love
      C                                  D
Might not be much but it's all I'll ever need
              Em           D               C
And you don't have to understand this life I lead
               G
Just trying to live, it is what it is
            D                       G  D  Em  C
And what it is, is good enough for me
 
 
[Verse 2]
G                               C
Seems like when I hit my knees, I just ask for more
       G                                          D
Always praying for the next best thing, 'stead of what I'm thankful for
G                                 C
Kneeling by my bed last night the good Lord spoke to me
        G
He said son what do you lack
             D                             C
Look around, tell me what you see, and now I see
 
 
[Chorus]
      G                    C          G
I got breath to breathe, a heart that beats
      D
And a life that's full of simple things
      C                                              D
And a little piece of Heaven right here in front of me
        G                  C        G
I got a truck that runs, a dog that hunts
       D
With a good old fashion woman's love
      C                                  D
Might not be much but it's all I'll ever need
              Em           D               C
And you don't have to understand this life I lead
               G
Just trying to live, it is what it is
            D                       Em
And what it is, is good enough for me

You don't have to understand this life I lead
               G
Just trying to live, it is what it is
            D                       G  D  Em  C  G
And what it is, is good enough for me
