The third verse and final chorus of this song is played uptempo.
E
Oh if you love the life you live, Then you'll get a lot more done
E B
Be more inclined to take the reins Than turn away and run
E A
It's very rare it seems to get a lifetime guarantee,
E B
So I suppose self satisfaction be the key
E
My father is a wealthy, self made man
E B
But his wealth does not consist of riches or acres of land
A E
Instead he has a family who are his biggest fans
B
that's something that I one day hope to have
A
So I'll cherish the simple things
E
The easy took for granted things
B E
Like going round my Mum's house for my tea
A
And argue with my sister,
E
Only God knows how I missed her
B E
it's the simple things that mean the most to me
E
Oh he gets up each day at five starts the car and makes the drive
E B
Shutters up, starts the fryers serves out food to all the buyers
E
in the town as they stand there in the same old line
A
Get there every day at the same old time
E
No, you never gonna' hear him grumble and groan
B
Cause they're the people in the line that he built it on
A
And like me he cherished the simple things
E
The easy took for granted things
B E
Like going round his Mum's house for his tea
A
And argue with his sister,
E
Only God knows how he missed her
B E
it's the simple things that mean the most to... him
