A  A/F#  A  A/F#  A  A/F#  A  A/F#  A
Verse 1
Not planning our day around a TV set
Paying our bills and staying out of debt
That’s im - Dportant to me - That’s im - Aportant to me
Openin’ the windows and lettin’ in air
Holding hands when we’re saying a prayer
That’s im - Dportant to me - Yea, that’s im - Aportant to me
Chorus
      E/G#  F#m7Having somebody to shaDre my life
ALoving my husband, and Ebeing a wifeF#m7  
And the very best Dmother A/C#I can Bm7beE  
That’s important to Ame
Verse 2
Telling the truth, and being real
Feeding my family a home cooked meal
That’s im - Dportant to me - That’s im - Aportant to me
Planting a garden and watching it grow
Keeping it country on the radio
That’s im - Dportant to me - Yea, that’s im - Aportant to me
Chorus
      E/G#  F#m7Always having Dyou to hold,
ABeing beside you when Ewe grow oldF#m7

ABeing beside you when Ewe grow oldF#m7  
And they plant us ‘Dneath that A/C#big old Bm7treeE  
Verse 3
ABelieving our dreams will take us somewhere
Still bein' ourselves if we ever get there
That’s im - Dportant to me - that’s im - Aportant to me
Yea, that’s im - Dportant to me - that’s im - Aportant to me
That’s important to me
This is my interpretation of the song and is what I hear. I have supplied some of the chords to
this one. The rest of them can be played as normal. Please note the  A/F#isn't a true inversion.
If you listen to the intro, the first verse and some other places in the song, you will hear
the  F#being played with the A. If desired, you can use your thumb to come over the top of the
neck and play the 6th string at the second fret - this will give you a true A/F#, however this
sounds to bassy to me. A better way to play it is to the second finger to barre the open A and
then use your pinky to play the  F#on fourth string at the fourth fret as needed. This actually
sounds much better and still gives you a decent chance to get to the open  Dmajor chord. 
Please note that I did not tab out the  A/F#anywhere except for the intro. If you listen to the
song a couple of times, you should be able to quickly figure out where it is played.
