Ordinary Life

D  Em D  Em7  Bm7  D


[Verse 1]

D                              Em
Shelley's at the kitchen table, cup 
of coffee  the morning paper
D                                 
When he walks in she's so 
      G                    Gmaj7
surprised, to see the tears in his 
eyes
   D                           Em
He says I love you I'm so sorry, but
 bigger dreams are waiting for me
D/F#                    G  A
And I can't do this anymo -re


[Chorus]

          D            A          
I pay the bills, watch TV, day in 
    G               A
day out the same routine
          Bm             A/C#     
I mow the grass, fix the leak just
    G/D      A
 to fix it again
          D           A      
We go to church go to work, so 
          G              Em6
picture perfect that it hurts
  D             D6        A      
I feel like I'm trapped inside 
   A7       D      Em
this ordinary life.

[Verse 2]

D                              Em
Shelley's at the kitchen table,  
crayons, construction paper
D                         G
Hey mom look what I drew, it's a 
picture of me and you
D                                 
Then later when he says his 
      Em
prayers, she runs her fingers 
through his hair
   D                  G  A
So thankful for every d-a-y


[Chorus]

               D            A     
They pay their bills, watch TV, 
       G                 A
day in day out it's all they need
             Bm              
They mow the grass, fix the leak 
A/C#        G/D     A
just to fix it again
            D            A     
They go to church, go to school, 
       G                  Em6
everyday it's something new
 D               D6              
Precious are the days as they go 
A            A7       D
by, in their ordinary lives.


[Bridge]

Bm               Bm7              
Phone rings he's calling from the 
E7
airport
     A                 A7     D
It's midnight he's all alone again
G         G/F#              Em7 
He'says I can't believe how much
      Esus4
 I've missed
G         G/F#      A
And what I wouldn't give


[Chorus]

           D            A         
To pay the bills, watch TV, day in
     G               A
 day out the same routine
            Bm            A/C#    
To mow the grass, fix the leak 
     G/D     A
just to fix it again
          D            A          
To go to church, go to work I 
  G                 Em6
can't tell you how this hurts
 D             D6       A        
I miss my son I miss my wife, and
     A7      D    Em  D
 my ordinary life!
