No Capo
[Verse]
G Cadd9
He said I was in my early forties with a lot of life before me
Em7 D Cadd9
and a moment came that stopped me on a dime
G Cadd9
I spent most of the next days looking at the x-rays
Em7 Dsus4 Cadd9
talking ‘bout the options and talkin’ ‘bout sweet time
Em7 D
I asked him when it sank in if this might really be the real end
Em7 Dsus4 Cadd9
How’s it hit ‘cha when you get that kind of news, man what’cha do?
[Chorus]
G
I went sky diving
Cadd9
I went rocky mountain climbing
Em7 Dsus4 Cadd9
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu
G B7 Em7 Dsus4
And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter and I gave forgiveness id been
Cadd9
denying
D G
and he said some day I hope you get the chance to live like you were dying
[Verse]
G Cadd9
He said I was finally the husband that most the time I wasn’t
Em D Cadd9
And I became a friend a friend would like to have
G Cadd9
And all of a sudden going fishin’ wasn’t such an imposition
Em D Cadd9
And I went three times that year I lost my dad
[Bridge]
E5 E5
Well I finally read the Good Book and I took a good long hard look
D C5
at what I'd do if I could do it all again and then…
[Chorus]
G
I went sky diving
Cadd9
I went rocky mountain climbing
Em7 Dsus4 Cadd9
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu
G B7 Em7 Dsus4
And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter and I gave forgiveness id been
Cadd9
denying
[Bridge]
E5
and he said some day I hope you get the chance to live like you were dying
Em D C
Like tomorrow was a gift and you got eternity to think about what you’d do?
with it
Cm
What could you do with it
Cdim
What could I do with it
C
What would I do with it
(key change up whole step)
[Chorus]
A
I went sky diving
Dadd9
I went rocky mountain climbing
F#m E Dadd9
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu
A C#7 F#m E Dadd9
And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter and I watched an eagle as it was flying
E A
and he said some day I hope you get the chance to live like you were dying
A D
To live like you were dying
A D
To live like you were dying
A D
To live like you were dying
A D
To live like you were dying
