[Verse 1]
D#m B
Moved to a new town, didn't make a penny
F#
For the better part of two plus years
D#m B
Got through somehow, losing to winning
F#
And I ended up standing here
D#m B
Wake up one day, look back
F#
Can't say knew it when you started out
D#m B
Me and my lady luck riding in my old truck
F#
Got me to the here and now
[Chorus]
D#m B
The key to life ain't opening the lock
F#
To a bag full of money (a bag full of money)
D#m B
The key to life ain't under the mat
F#
To some greener grass sunny (out in the country)
D#m B
It's the simple things like you and me
F#
East-bound down no place to be
D#m B F#
Just driving around, turning that key to life
D#m B F#
It ain't all worked out but everything'll be alright
D#m B F#
I'm just living that dream, yeah, turning that key to life
[Verse 2]
D#m B
Yeah, it's something in your ice tea, homemade ice cream
F#
Colder beer and closer friends
D#m B
It's a good back porch and a four by four
F#
And a summer that's slow to end
D#m B F#
It's Amazing Grace when you think it ain't coming along
D#m B F#
It's a second wind when you thought that breeze was gone, come on
[Chorus]
D#m B
The key to life ain't opening the lock
F#
To a bag full of money (a bag full of money)
D#m B
The key to life ain't under the mat
F#
To some greener grass sunny (out in the country)
D#m B
It's the simple things like you and me
F#
East-bound down no place to be
D#m B F#
Just driving around, turning that key to life
D#m B F#
Yeah, we drink too much but everything'll be alright
D#m B F#
Just living that dream, yeah, turning that key to life

[Bridge]
D#m B F#
Some doors swing wide open, some stay forever closed
D#m B F#
I may not know it all, but one thing I know is
[Chorus]
D#m B
The key to life ain't opening the lock
F#
To a bag full of money (a bag full of money)
D#m B
The key to life ain't under the mat
F#
To some greener grass sunny (out in the country)
D#m B
It's the simple things like you and me
F#
East-bound down no place to be
D#m B F#
Just driving around, turning that key to life
D#m B F#
It ain't all worked out but everything'll be alright
D#m B F#
Just living that dream, yeah, turning that key to life
