Subject: crd: "The Simple Life" from the movie " Father of the Bride"

This song comes from the movie "Father of the Bride".
I have no idea who wrote it or who performs it for the 
movie. I don't Know the title But I'm guessing that it is 
called:        
                 "The Simple Life"

slowly 
	Folks are blessed who make the most of everyday
                               #5b9
	living by their own philosophy 
	everyone beneath the sun must find a way
                                   #5
	and I've found the only way for me

	I don't believe in frettin' and grievin'
                  C7b5    
	why mess around    with   strife
	I never was cut out to step and strut out
	give me the simple life

	Some find it pleasant dining on pheasant
                             C7b5   
	but those things roll off      my    knife
	just feed me tomata's and mashed potata's    
	give me the simple life

	A cottage small is all I'm after 
                             #5b9
	not one too spacious and wide
	a house that rings with joy and laughter
	of the ones you love inside

	Life could be thrilling for one who's willing 
             C7b5    
	to be a far -- mer's wife
	kids calling me pappy could sure make me happy
	give me the simple life

	Some take the high road, I'll take the low road
                    C7b9     
	free from the care    and   strife
	sounds corny and seedy but yes indeedy
	give me the simple life

Ending: Give me the simple life
