Pretty Freaking Close (v2)

[Intro] [strummed acoustic guitar, clean electric guitar melody] [Verse 1] [acoustic guitar continues, bass and drums enter] Woke up today and looked around the room Sunlight's peeking through the morning gloom Sometimes I focus on what's gone or wrong But I've got enough to make my life a song Got a decent job, keep the lights turned on Money in the bank till the week is gone It ain't a dream and I ain't rolling in gold But it's a living and it rarely gets old [Chorus] [full band, organ pads enter] My life is blessed, though it's easy to forget I haven't seen the best of everything just yet It ain't a mansion, it ain't a movie screen It's the quietest beautiful you've ever seen No it's not perfect, not by a long shot But it's pretty freaking close [Verse 2] [acoustic guitar, bass, and drums] Got a family that loves the best they can They're a little bit messy but they're all here man A couple good friends, a shoulder for the tears One's a long distance call away for all these years My car starts up, gets me through the day Gas costs a fortune but it knows the way Got a cozy home when heat gets too hot And plenty of space beneath the sky [Bridge] [electric guitar fills] Ain't running marathons but I can walk the street Got all five senses and shoes on my feet I've had my lovers, I've had some big loves Now I've got the memories I'm proud of I've got some flaws and I've got a lot to learn But I've got a good heart despite the bridges I've burned [Chorus] [full band] Yeah, my life is blessed, though it's easy to forget I haven't seen the best of everything just yet It ain't a mansion, it ain't a movie screen It's the quietest beautiful you've ever seen No it's not perfect, not by a long shot But it's pretty freaking close [Outro] [acoustic guitar solo] Yeah, it's a good life Yeah, a bit more sure would be nice ;) But it's a good life
