Nothing But A Breeze by Jesse Winchester
Nothing But A Breeze
Capo:3rd fret
Intro: E-A-B7-E
E
Life is much too short for some folks
A E
For other folks it just drags on
E
Some folks like the taste of smokey whiskey
A B7
Others figure tea is too strong
E
I'm the type of guy who likes to ride it down the middle
A E
I don't like all this bouncing back and forth
C#m A
Me, I want to live with my feet in Dixie
B7 E
And my head in the cool blue North
E
In a small suburban garden
A E
Not a single neighbor knows our names
E
I know the woman wishes we would move somewhere
A B7
Where the houses aren't all the same
E
Jesse, I wish you would take me
E
Where the grass is greener
A E
I really couldn't say where it may be
C#m A
Somewhere up high on a mountain top
B7 E
Or down by the deep blue sea
A C#m
And there we'll do just as we please
A B7
It ain't nothing but a breeze
E
One day I'll be a old gray grandpa
A E
All the pretty girls will call me Sir
E
Now, they're asking me how things are
A B7
Soon they'll ask me how things were
E
Well, I don't mind being an old gray grandpa
A E
If you'll be my gray grandma
C#m A
But I'll suggest we go have our milk and cookies
B7 E
In the shade of the old paw-paw
Instrumental - Verse Chords
A C#m
There we'll do just as we please
A B7
It ain't nothing but a breeze
E
Life is just too short for some folks
A E
Other folks it just drags on
E
Some folks like the taste of smokey whiskey
A B7
Others figure tea is too strong
E
Now I'm the type of guy who likes to ride it down the middle
A E
I don't like all this bouncing back and forth
C#m A
Me, I want to live with my feet in Dixie
B7 E
And my head in the cool blue North
C#m A
Yea, me I want to live with my feet in Dixie
B7 E
And my head in the cool blue North
