Tim McGraw - Live Like You Were Dying
Tab by: Chris Conner
INTRO: [C] [D] [Cadd9] [D]
He said I was [G]in my early forties with a [Cadd9]lot of life before me
and a [Em]moment came that [D]stopped me on a [Cadd9]dime
I spent [G]most of the next days [Cadd9]looking at the x-rays
[Em]talking bout the o[D]ptions and [Cadd9]talkin' 'bout sweet time
PRE-CHORUS #1:
[Em/B]I asked him when it sank in if [Em/Bb]this might really be the real end
How's it [Em/A]hit 'cha when you get that kind of [C5]news, man what'cha do'
CHORUS:
I went [G]sky diving
I went [Cadd9]rocky mountain climbing
I went [Em]two point seven [D]seconds on a [Cadd9]bull named Fu Man Chu
And I [G]loved deeper and I [B7]spoke sweeter
And I [Em]gave [D]forgiveness I'd been [Cadd9]denying
And he said some day I hope you get the [D]chance to live like you were [G]dying
He said I was [G]finally the husband that [Cadd9]most the time I wasn't
And I [Em]became a friend a [D]friend would like to [Cadd9]have
And [G]all of a sudden going fishin' wasn't [Cadd9]such an imposition
[Em]And I went three times that [D]year I lost my [Cadd9]dad
PRE-CHORUS #2:
[Em/B]Well I finally read the Good Book and I [Em/Bb]took a good long hard look
at what I'd [Em/A]do if I could do it all [C5]again and then'
CHORUS (End on E5)
BRIDGE:
Like [E5/Eb]tomorrow was a gift
and you got e[Em/A]ternity to think about what you'd [C5]do' with it
What could you [Cm]do with it
What could I [Cdim]do with it
What would I [C]do with it
CHORUS (Key Change):
I went [A]sky diving
I went [Dadd9]rocky mountain climbing
I went [F#m]two point seven [E]seconds on a [Dadd9]bull named Fu Man Chu
And I [A]loved deeper and I [C#7]spoke sweeter
And I [F#m]watched an [E]eagle as it was [Dadd9]flying
And he said some day I hope you get the [E]chance to live like you were [A]dying [D]
To live like you were [A]dying [D]
To live like you were [A]dying [D]
To live like you were [A]dying [D]
To live like you were [A]dying [D]
