He said I wa G s in my early forties with C a lot of life before me
and a Em moment came that D stopped me on a C dime
I spent G most of the next days C looking at the x-rays
Em talking 'bout the D options and C talkin' 'bout sweet time
E5 I asked him when it sank in if E5/Eb this might really be the real end
How's it E5/D hit 'cha when you get that kind of C5 news, man what'cha do
I went G sky diving
I went C rocky mountain climbing
I went Em two point seven D seconds on a bull named Fu C Man Chu
G B7 Em D And I loved deepe C r and I spoke sweeter and I gave forgiveness id been
denying
D and he said some da G y I hope you get the chance to live like you were dying
He said I was finally the husband that most the time I wasn't
And I became a friend a friend would like to have
And all of a sudden going fishin' wasn't such an imposition
And I went three times that year I lost my dad
Well I finally read the Good Book and I took a good long hard look
at what id do if I could do it all again and then...
I went sky diving
I went rocky mountain climbing
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu
And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter and I gave forgiveness id been
denying
and he said some day I hope you get the chance to live like you were E5 dying
Like E5/Eb tomorrow was a gift and you got E5/D eternity to think about what you'd C do
with it
What could you Cm do with it
What could I Cdim do with it
What would I C do with it
FOR THOSE OF YOU WITH FAST CAPO'S, PUT IT ON FIRST FRET
Chorus
To live like you were dying x 4
