AFTER ALL (I LIVE MY LIFE) - Frankie Miller
From the film RUM DIARY
Capo 4th fret
G: 320003 C/G*: 3X2103 C/G: 332010 D: XX0232
This uses 2 versions of the C/G cord so I have shown the less common version with a*
If you use your 4th finger to hit the G base note on the G cord then you can drop your
index and 2nd finger to get the C/G* cord
Sounds good in the chorus if you walk down from G to D
Into G C/G* x2
G C/G*
Always thinking about the days gone by
G C/G*
when my childhood eyes saw only hills & sky
C/G D
But I’m not the simple minded boy I used to be
C/G D
Now I learned to picture life in it’s reality
G C/G
I found after all the searching life was only what I made it
G D
After all the searching for new games to play
G C/G
I found after all the searching life was only what I made it
G D
After all the searching for a new game to play
G
I live my life away
Bridge C/G* D C/G*
G C/G*
Saw a dragon shake cathedral walls
G C/G*
While a steeple bell rang out in anguish calls
C/G D
And I turned my eyes to see a bird fly over head
C/G D
And I dreamt it’s wings of freedom could be mine instead
G C/G
I found after all the dreaming life was only what I made it
G D
After all the dreaming for new games to play
G C/G
Oh I after all the dreaming life was only what I made it
G D
After all the dreaming of new games to play
G
I drink my life away
Bridge 2 C/G* C/G D
C/G D
G C/G
Even after all the searching life was only what I made it
G D
After all the searching for a new game to play
G C/G
After all the searching life was only how you take it
G D
After all the searching for a new game to play
G C/G*
I live my life away
G C/G*
Live it all
G C/G*
Live it all
G C/G*
Live that life away
End on G
