               C  F G                      C   F G 
Billy's at the bar....he's been there all night 
C           F G               C  
First ten beers he's had....since her goodbye 
 
(repeat intro chords) 
 
              C   F G               C   F G 
She left him broke.... in his new truck 
           C  F G                   C   F G 
He don't smoke... but he lights one up 
           C  F G              C   F G 
Temporary fix... for his heartache               C  F G                    C  
He's hurtin' bad.... but he's feelin' great 
C           Dm           F               G 
He's on the dance floor yellin': "Free Bird" 
C            Dm           F           G 
Singin' off pitch but he knows every word 
C            Dm          F        G 
Grabs him a girl and he holds on tight 
C     Dm           F         G 
He's chasin' everything in sight 
Dm                    F 
He'll fall apart when he gets home 
          Dm                   G 
But right now his worries are gone 
            Dm 
Life looks good, good, good 
G                            C 
Billy's got his beer goggles on  
(repeat intro chords) 
 
          C    F G            C  F G 
A lot of drunks... get real mean 
                 C   F G             C  F G 
They'll pick a fight.... over anything 
                 C   F G                 C  F G 
Billy wants to laugh... that's why he's here 
                   C   F G                  C 
You won't see him cry unless you spill his beer

Last Chorus: 
C           Dm           F               G 
He's on the dance floor yellin': "Free Bird" 
C            Dm           F           G 
Singin' off pitch but he knows every word 
C           Dm              F        G 
Grabs him another girl and holds on tight 
C            Dm            F          G 
He don't see ugly through blood-shot eyes 
Dm                    F 
He'll fall apart when he gets home 
          Dm                   G 
But right now his worries are gone 
            Dm              G 
Life looks good, good, good 
   Dm               G 
So good, good, good 
            Dm            
Life looks good, good, good 
G                               C
