Track 16 Little Aggravations

Intro riff |A run down|G D G D|A boogie |A

Life's Little aggravations Are vexatious to the spirit | A bgy |A bgy |

But like the grit in an oyster They can lead you to a pearl | G1/4 |D 8ths |

Even minor approbation Can push you to the limit | A bgy |A bgy |

But without a little chiding It's too easy in the world | G1/4 |D 8ths |

We can sink into indolence And self satisfaction |F#m ^G|F#m^G|

If we stay within our comfort zone | Dbgy |A bgy |

Or we can rail at restriction and push out the boundaries |F#m ^G|F#m^G|

And find that our spirit has grown | Bm |A stop| and into riff

So for every problem, seize the opportunity to

change

For every setback there's a chance for you to

Rearrange your life

Certainty ‘s a prison and at times you must break

Free

At times you need excision If you hope to be all you can

Be all you can be

What's it all for If not to stretch and |Bm |Bm |

grow |A |A |

Who’s counting score When there's so much |Bm |Bm |

left out there, so much more to know |A |G A | A | riff

Life's Little aggravations Are vexatious to the spirit | A bgy |A bgy |

But like the grit in an oyster They can lead you to a pearl | G1/4 |D 8ths |

If your life’s to placid then it takes a little acid* | A bgy |A bgy |

To keep you from stagnating in a very boring world | G1/4 |D 8ths |

People may frown and talk of settling down

Telling you to act your age

But nothing should perturb ya like brain death in suburbia

It’s never too late for you to turn that page

Riff then coda –

Never too late to turn that page |A |D long |D stop
