[Intro]
D D/C# Em7 A

[Verse 1]
D               D/C#            Em7       A
Sittin' on the front porch on a Sunday afternoon
               G/A            D/F#            Em   A
Just me and a buddy who I've known for a few years
    D                 D/C#
We figured since the weather's nice
    Em7                A
We might as well soak up the sights
     G/A              D/F#            Em   A
Of Nashville with no suits and ties around


[Chorus]
G                         A
Conversation covers everything and in between
                 D         D/C#         Em7  A
From grandpa's health to marrying good girls
    G               A
Oh, we ain't up to nothing
       G                A             D
Just solving all the problems of the world

D/C# Em7 A

[Verse 2]
    D                     D/C#
We joke and laugh at the present and past
     Em7                A
How some things do and some don't last
      G/A                    D/F#            Em               A
Like friends you make 'round here sometimes somehow just disappear
          D           D/C#
Oh, it's funny to the two of us
     Em7                  A
The folks back home make such a fuss
 G/A                 D/F#         Em
About the way we're livin' day to day
              A
And guitars pickin'


[Chorus]
    G                        A
The conversation covers everything and in between
             D        D/C#           Em7   A
From modern music to "Mama Tried" by Merle
    G               A
Oh, we ain't up to nothing
       G                A             G
Just solving all the problems of the world


[Bridge]
        D/F#                 Em         D/F#
As they come and go like us wannabes on music row
       G                 D/F#          Em              A
We're made to just burn out the way a star is made to glow


[Verse 3]
    D                 D/C#
We light us one last cigarette
      Em7                 A
Make plans to do what we ain't done yet
    G/A           D/F#              Em                    A
He wants to buy a Jeep, I'd like to make it through next week
     D              D/C#            Em7        A
If I do and he does too I bet we'll do it all again
          G/A               D/F#            Em         A
Shoot the bull about what's new on another Sunday afternoon


[Chorus]
          G                        A
Where the conversation covers everything and in between
             D       D/C#        Em7  A
From life is good to giving it a whirl
    G               A
Oh, we ain't up to nothing
      G                 A             G
Just solving all the problems of the world
