He always did the best that he could
                                D
Took care of mama and us pretty good

He never got rich but he never did try
                      G
He was just a regular guy
D
Well, the world goes around
    C            G
And I can't stop it
                                D
So I'll sit back and watch the sun go down
                          C             G
If it comes back up then this day's a good one
                       F        D
You know I wouldn't be that surprised

G
I'm just a regular guy
                                 D
Never get rich, but I always get by

Never got rich never did try

                   G
I'm just a regular guy

Dont know the term:
G D G

Chorus:
G
I'm just a regular guy and I'll work
                     D
Until the day that I die

I'm too young to quit, too old to hire
G
These days a man can't afford to retire

Didn't vote for nobody last time
Gm                                   G    D
Because they wasn't worth a trickle down dime

But one man's promise is another man's lie
                       G
And I'm just a regular guy

Bridge:
D
Well, the world goes around
    C            G
And I can't stop it
                                D
So I'll sit back and watch the sun go down
                          C             G
If it comes back up then this day's a good one
                       F        D
You know I wouldn't be that surprised

Chorus/Outro?:
G
I'm just a regular guy
                                 D
Never get rich, but I always get by
                             Bm  D
Never got rich never did try
                   G   D G
I'm just a regular guy

I'm just a regular guy
                   D
I'm just a regular guy

Never got rich never did try
                   G
I'm just a regular guy

I'm just a regular guy
                   D
I'm just a regular guy

Never got rich never did try
                   G
I'm just a regular guy
