[Verse 1]
C/G F C/G
All I've ever wanted was an honest life
C/G G
To be the person that I really am inside
C/G F
To tell you all the things that I did that night
C/G G C/G
Sometimes it just ain't easy to live an honest life
[Verse 2]
C/G F C/G
All I've ever needed was a little time to grow
C/G G
A little time to understand all the things that I know
C/G F
So I can listen to you lovingly instead of getting up to go
C/G G C/G
Some people take a little more time to grow
[Chorus]
F C/G C C/B
Right when you have it all figured out
Am G G6 G7
Life comes to throw you another doubt
F C/G
But my head's up high
F C/G
And I ain't got nothing but time
C/G G C/G
To work at living an honest life

All I've ever asked for was a way to understand
C/G G
All of life's lessons the best that I can
C/G F
How to be honest, how to be wise, and how to be a good friend
C/G G C/G
Some things take a lifetime to fully understand
[Chorus]
F C/G C C/B
Right when you have it all figured out
Am G G6 G7
Life comes to throw you another doubt
