Intro: F6 | F6 | F6 | F6

F
Last night in bed
  C  
I dreamt I was dead,
         Dm               G   G7
I woke up and started to cry,
C        Cmaj     F   Fmaj
I didn’t want to die.
  Bb                   Eb
I sat there wondering why
    Am7                       D7
You sit there and strongly defy
            Gm
The fact of life,
    Gm7               C
You think of your wife and children.

F
That’s when you learn,
    C  
The wheel must turn.
           Dm                G
You get off, and others get on,
G7     C       Cmaj
You’re here today,
             F    Fmaj
Then you’re gone.
     Bb                      Eb
They miss you, but not very long.
Am7
Life must go on
        D7                    Gm
As the song they sing on that day.
     Gm7           C
They gallop their way.

             Ab            Fm
   Remember, life will go on
                Dbmaj
   When you’ve gone.
            Bb7  Eb        Ab
   No, it’s not about to wait.
              Fm              Dbmaj
   There’s a date with your fate,
           C7
   It goes on without you.

Chorus:
     F                    C  
     Live everyday every possible ways,
                Dm
     Spend the time
                           G
     With your family and friends.
     G7  C              Cmaj
     Oh, live it right down
             F   Fmaj
     To the end,
     Bb                      Eb
     Take every road, every bend,
     Am7
     Live every minute,
          D7                    G
     Get all there is in it, my friend.

   Ab            Fm
   Life will go on

   No, it’s not about to wait.
              Fm              Dbmaj
   There’s a date with your fate,
           C7
   It goes on without you.

     Get all there is in it, my friend.

     Live it right down

          E7                     A
