  			B  E 
 
E                                B 
I promised you the good life and all the finer things 
                             E 
Fancy clothes cadillacs  and lots of diamond rings 
E 
The bible tells us that  the lilies  
        A 
Are the best dressed of the flowers 
         B                                  E 
But it's hard to dress a woman on $5.15 an hour 
E                      B 
This is the good life  singing in a bar 
 
Playing all these songs I love 
E 
Wondering where you are 
E                 E7 
Smoking all these cigarrettes 
    A 
And drinking all this beer 
B 
This is the good life  
                   E 
So sad you weren't here 
 
SOLO 
 
E 
Now you say  that you don't love me 
    B 
And honey that's alright 
                                          E   
Cause I've got lots of better things that I can do tonight   
                                       A 
Like wondering what became of all the stars of yester year 
     B                                               E      
As I watched the angels dancing in the bubbles in my beer 
E                      B 
This is the good life  singing in a bar 
 
Playing all these songs I love 
E 
Wondering where you are 
E                 E7 
Smoking all these cigarrettes 
    A 
And drinking all this beer 
B 
This is the good life  
                   E 
So sad you weren't here
