G C G
I've been sitting here thinking back oer my life
A7 D7
All of the good things the trouble and strife
G C
Well my share of heart ache yes so many I've had
G D7 G
But I still think the good things outweigh the bad
[Chorus]
C G
Well I've rocked my babies at night when they cried
A7 D7
I've seen the teardrops turned into smiles
G C
And that's when I realize all the bad luck I've had
G D7 G
And I know all the good things outweigh the bad
[Verse 2]
C G
Well I'll never have riches no money to spare
A7 D7
Just a sharecropper's wages is my only fare
G C
Yes making my living just working the land
G D7 G
But I still think the good things outweigh the bad
[Chorus]
Well I've rocked my babies at night when they cried
A7 D7
I've seen the teardrops turned into smiles
G C
And that's when I realize all the bad luck I've had
G D7 G
And I know all the good things outweigh the bad
[Verse 3]
C G
Yes I've worked the cotton in the heat of the day
A7 D7
And then paid the landlord nearly all that I made
G C
Well I've seen high water take all that I had
G D7 G
But I still think the good things outweigh the bad
