(Verse I)
[E]
It was early one mornin'
[Asus2]
Playa del Carmen
[Bsus2] [E]
That's when I first met Jose
[E]
He had a 12 foot Schooner
[Asus2]
A 3 foot cooler
[Bsus2] [E]
Full of the catch of the day
[E]
And he was wrinkled from grinnin'
[Asus2]
From all of the sun he had been in
[Bsus2] [E]
He was barefoot, cerveza in hand
[E] [Asus2]
He said "Gracias senor", when I paid him too much for
[Bsus2] [E]
All of the Snapper he had
[Asus2] [E]
Now I told him my friend it ain't nothin'
[Bsus2] [E]
In the best broken Spanish I knew
[Asus2]
I said I make a good livin'
[E]
Back home where I'm from
[Bsus2] (NC)
He smiled and said Amigo me too
(Chorus)
[E] [Asus2]
He said I fish and I play my guitar
[Bsus2] [E]
I laugh at the bar with my friends
[E]
I go home to my wife
[Asus2]
I pray every night
[Bsus2]
I can do it all over again

(Verse II)
[E]
Somewhere over Texas
[Asus2]

I thought of my Lexus
[Bsus2] [E]
And all the stuff I work so hard for
[E]
And all the things that I've gathered
[Asus2]
From climbing that ladder
[Bsus2] [E]
Didn't make much sense anymore
[Asus2] [E]
They say my nest egg ain't ready to hatch yet
[Bsus2] [E]
They keep holding my feet to the fire
[Asus2]
They call it paying the price
[E]
So that one day in life
[Bsus2] (NC)
I'll have what I need to retire
(Chorus)
[E] [Asus2]
And just fish, and play my guitar,
[Bsus2] [E]
Laugh at the bar with my friends,
[E]
Go home to my wife
[Asus2]
And pray every night,
[Bsus2] [E]
I can do it all over again
(Bridge)
[Fm] [E] [Asus2] [E]
And to think that I thought for a while there that I had it made
[Fm] [E] [Asus2]
When the truth is I'm really just dying
[Bsus2]
To live like Jose
(Chorus)
Single Downward Strums
(NC) [E]
And just fish
[Asus2]
Play my guitar
[Bsus2] [E]
Laugh at the bar with my friends
[E]
Go home to my wife
[Asus2]
Pray every night
[Bsus2] [E]
I can do it all over again
Instrumental:
[E],[E],[E],[E],[E],[Asus2],[Asus2],[Asus2],[Asus2],[Asus2],[Bsus2],[Bsus2],[Bsus2],
[Bsus2],[Bsus2],[E],[E],[E] until end.
Wouldn't that be the life?
Wouldn't that be the life?
