God's Been Good to Me

[Verse 1] Well I can't believe I'm sitting here today Picking on my banjo with a big smile on my face Writing new words to an old school melody Hey there is no doubt that God's been good to me Oh the sun is shining on down in Tennessee And right now where I'm right where I want to be I've never felt so loved, so peaceful and so free Hey there is no doubt that God's been good to me [Chorus] Because he put me smack dab in the middle of Paradise In the heart of the city where my dreams have come alive And everything I have, and everything I see Is just another reminder that God's been good to me [Verse 2] This golden road's been long And sometimes I have lost my way I've been down some darkened detours Leaning heavy on my faith But where the devil had me chained Lord your love done set me free Hallelujah! God's been good to me [Chorus] Because he put me smack dab in the middle of Paradise In the heart of the city where my dreams have come alive And everything I have, and everything I see Is just another reminder that God's been good to me Because he put me smack dab in the middle of Paradise In the heart of the city where my dreams have come alive And everything I have, and everything I see Is just another reminder that God's been good to me
