Artist/Band: Kenny Chesney
Lyrics for Song: That's Why I'm Here
Lyrics for Album: Greatest Hits [2000]



I ain't had nothin' to drink

I knew that's probably what you'd think

If I dropped by this time of night

Remember way back when

I promised you I'd drop in

At one of those meetings down at the Y.



They started talkin' 'bout steps you take,

Mistakes you make and the hearts you break

And the price you pay

I almost walked away.



You could hear a pindrop when this old man

Stood up and said I'm gonna say it again

Like I do every week

For those who don't know me.



Chorus:

It's the simple things in life

Like the kids at home and a loving wife

That you miss the most when you lose control

Everything you love starts to disappear

The devil takes you hand and says no fear

Have another shot, just one more beer

I've been there, that's why I'm here.



Some boy stood up in the aisle

Said he'd been livin' a life of denial

And he cried as he talked about wasted years

I couldn't beleive what I heard

It was my life word for word

And all of the sudden, it was clear.



Chorus:

It's the simple things in life

Like the kids at home and a loving wife

That you miss the most when you lose control

Everything you love starts to disappear

The devil takes you hand and says no fear

Have another shot, just one more beer

I've been there, that's why I'm here.



I know for us it may too late

But it would mean the world to me

If you were there when I stand to say.



Chorus:

It's the simple things in life

Like the kids at home and a loving wife

That you miss the most when you lose control

Everything you love starts to disappear

The devil takes you hand and says no fear

Have another shot, just one more beer

I've been there, that's why I'm here.



Oh, I've been there, that's why I'm here...
