2. Getting Good (Capo on the 4th Fret)


Intro:

G


Verse:
G                                 C
Once I fall in love then I'll be happy
      G                                        D
But then you fall in love and there's still a hole
 G                                 C
Once I get some money it'll all be easy
      G                                       D
But then you get that money, you still feel broke


Chorus:
        C                           G
Once I get a little older, I won't worry
             Em                                D
Then you get older and it don't feel like it should
             G                 D                     C
I'm thinking once I learn to grow right where I'm planted
                   D                   G
Maybe that's when life starts getting good


Verse:
 G                                        C
Once I get a car that don't stall in the morning
       G                             D
I can make it anywhere I want, just wait
           G                               C
But I can see it right now sitting in my driveway
       G                                 D
Afraid if I take it out, I'll chip the paint


Chorus:
        C                              G
Once I get a house that I can hang my hat on
            Em                               D
I bet I'll want to build a bigger one if I could, yeah
               G                D                    C
I'm thinking, once I learn to grow right where I'm planted
                   D                   G
Maybe that's when life starts getting good
             Em   C    G
Oh, getting goooooooooood
          Em   C   D
Getting goooooooooood
                     Em   C   G
Life starts getting gooooooooood
                                D                    G
I'm thinking maybe that's when life starts getting good

            That's when life starts getting good, oh


Verse:
 G                             C
I'm afraid of both my parents dying
   G                              D
I call my dad, he answers right away
       Em                               C
And I didn't hear a word 'cause I was thinking
            G                                 D
About what hasn't happened yet but will someday


Chorus:
     C                              G
And we hang up the phone before I know it
           Em                             D
I'm crying over the conversation my fear took
              G               D             C
I'm thinking once I learn to soak up every moment
                 D               G
I'll realize my life's already good
         Em   C   G
Already goooooooood
         Em   C   D
Already goooooooood
                Em   C   G
Life's already gooooooooood
                 D              Em
I'll realize my life's already good
  C                D               G
Thank God that my life's already good

We got issues and we can't solve 'em
                       G                  Em
It's time to treat my heart like that old car

Breaking down when it's raining
              G                Em                Am    D
Maybe she'll give you a better rating, I'm just sayin'

                            C
Underneath the front porch light
         D                      G
You make me feel just like I'm back in my first love


Chorus:
                           G
And I can't get enough of you

You look like a small town southern dream
         C                        D                         G

You bring out the country in me

How you do it? 'Cause you do it
      G
Your kisses like sweet lemonade
     Am
The kind that your mama homemade
    C                        D
It taste better out in the shade
      G

Verse 1:
C                      F
He said, I see my mama, she looks about 23
G                                  F
She's running my way with the angels

Right next to Jesus
C                    F                                  G
Yeah, his eyes lit up, staring at the living room ceiling
                              F
And with his last few breaths, he said, I wish you could see it


Chorus:
 C
Don't you cry for me 'cause I'm in God's glory
    G
And I can see his face, it's amazing
   Am
I know you have doubts but I see it right now
    F
I promise it's real, keep praying
 C                G
I'll be waiting, take your time
                 Am
And go write a story
                        F
That you can't wait to tell me
              C
On the other side

Oh, oh, on the other side, oh, oh

Better find a way to be up in the rafters
                            F
When I have you a grandbaby
                                      C
I got somebody good to name 'em after
                              F
There's gonna be a lot of sadness
                       G
On a lot of happy days
                                F
I'll try to think of this moment

This place and hear you say


Chorus:

Don't you cry for me 'cause I'm in God's glory

And I can see his face, it's amazing

I promise it's real, keep praying

I'll be waiting, take your time

That you can't wait to tell me
              C     G
On the other side
              Am       F
On the other side


Bridge:
C               G
All my pain, I get to leave it
      Am             F
It's time for me to get my healing


Chorus:
 C
Don't you cry for me 'cause I'm in God's glory
    G
And I can see his face, it's amazing
   Am
I know you have doubts but I see it right now
    F
I promise it's real, keep praying
 C                G
I'll be waiting, take your time
                 Am
And go write a story
                        F
That you can't wait to tell me
              C
On the other side
