VERSE:
 G
Church choir was the only high
Am7
 Monday morning was the only low
C
Momma's way was the only right
D
Straight and narrow was the only road

 G
The front porch was only built for
Am7
   Sipping ice tea
 C
The wild grass growing out in the back
D
 Was the only weed


CHORUS:
   G              Am7
If only life would   stay like that
   C                   D
If only this old world  wouldn't spin so fast
            G
If we more thankful, more grateful
      Am7
Loved everyone with all we have
         C
If we remember all the good and forget the bad
   D                       G  G  Am7  C  D
If only it was as easy as that


VERSE:
G
 Main street was the only way in
Am7
 Dreamin' big was the only way out
C
A simple prayer was the only way up
D
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound


CHORUS:
   G              Am7
If only life would   stay like that
   C                   D
If only this old world  wouldn't spin so fast
            G
If we more thankful, more grateful
      Am7
Loved everyone with all we have
         C
If we remember all the good and forget the bad
   D                       G  G  Am7  C  D
If only it was as easy as that


BDA K:
Am                 G            C
 Hard work was the only way to work
Am7                    G            C
 And true love was the only way to love


CHORUS:
   G              Am7
If only life would   stay like that
   C                   D
If only this old world  wouldn't spin so fast
            G
If we more thankful, more grateful
      Am7
Loved everyone with all we have
         C
If we remember all the good and forget the bad
   D                       G
If only it was as easy as that
