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