The Optimist
CHORUS
[E]I live each day like [Am]it's my last and I[D] think[C] today [E]will be
[E]But that is just the [Am]optimist that[D] lies[C] insid[E]e of me
VERSE 1
[F]Daddy he got drafted by the [Am]will of Uncle Sam
[F]By the hand of God and the Vietcong he d[Am]ied in Vietnam
[F]Mother couldn't raise three kids but [Am]she could raise her hand
[F]Every night my brother's and my[C] sister's hides go[B7]t tanned
VERSE 2
Daddy's little soldier girl is in Afghanistan
Me I wander 'round this country wondering who the hell I am
They said my brother was different but I didn't give a damn
He got married in Frisco and got murdered in Alabam'
