Trace Adkins - Thankful Man
Intro - C - G - Am - F
(verse 1)
[C]My daddy was blue co[G]llar,
He wo[Am]rked for the man a[F]ll of his life,
He[C] showed up when he didn't want to [G]be there,
A m[Am]an of his word, believed in d[F]oing things right,
(bridge)
I re[Am]member when [G]I was a kid,
He'd [F]say time and time a[D7]gain,
It's a g[C]ood life, it's a r[G]eal good life,
[F]And I'm a t[G]hankful m[C]an,
(chorus)
I'm a [Am]thankful man for e[F]very turn,
On every h[G]ighway I've been do[C]wn,
Every [Am]mile I've lost, every cross[F]road stop,
Every s[C]torm that turned me aro[G]und,
Oh, it's b[Am]etter than I c[G]ould have pla[F]nned,
[Am]It's made me [G]who I [F]am,
It's a [C]good life, it's a r[G]eal good life,
[F]And I'm a th[G]ankful [C]ma[-]n,[G] [-] [Am] [-] [F]
(verse 2)
My mama was a dreamer,
But she was the rock that we all leaned on,
She taught me about the lessons in life,
The difference between what's right and wrong,
(bridge)
And every word was a gift from her,
That helped me understand,
It's a good life, it's a real good life,
And I'm a thankful man,
(chorus)
I'm a [Am]thankful man for e[F]very turn,
On every h[G]ighway I've been do[C]wn,
Every [Am]mile I've lost, every cross[F]road stop,
Every s[C]torm that turned me aro[G]und,
Oh, it's b[Am]etter than I c[G]ould have pla[F]nned,
[Am]It's made me [G]who I [F]am,
It's a [C]good life, it's a r[G]eal good life,
[F]And I'm a th[G]ankful [C]man,
(lead chords - Am - F - C - G - Am - F - C - G)
(ending)
It's be[Am]tter than I co[G]uld have plan[F]ned,
[Am]It's made me [G]who I [F]am,
It's a [C]good life, it's a r[G]eal good life,
[Am]And I'm a thankful m[F]an,
It's a [C]good life, it's a r[G]eal good life,
[F]And I'm a th[G]ankful m[C]an[-] [G] [-] [Am] [-] [F] [-] [C]
