Live until I die - Clay Walker

Live until I die (US Country 1, 1994) (video)

    C - G - Am   - F - G - C (2x)

   C                         - G

1.   Skipping rocks,      skipping rope,

    C                            F

   laughing at all my best friends jokes,

C              Am                            G   - G7

    things I loved when I was a kid.

C                       - G                   - C                                F

    Muddy roads,     muddy feet,      I didn't live on no black top street,

      Am                G             F      G          C

    things have changed a lot but I never did.

       C                         F       G         C

And I don't want to think about tomorrow,

C                  F               G               C

I don't need anything money can buy.

C                        F       G        Am

 I don't have to beg, steal or borrow,

                     F       G     C

I just wanna live until I die.

+  C - G - Am   - F - G - C

   C                    - G C                                            F

2.    Living right,      living in this little old town I grew up in,

C                Am                     G       - G7

    but I still held on to my dreams.

C                           - G

    Standing proud,      standing tall,

       C                                        F

    standing smack dab in the middle of it all,

  Am          G                 F            G            C

    I don't worry about things that I can't change.

+  CHORUS

           Am      G        C                     F          G      C

+  And everything around me are things I dearly love,

           Am      G             C                           Dm                     G

    and every night I get on my knees and thank the Lord above.

 (orig. moves up half a note to capo 4th here)

       C                         F       G         C

And I don't want to think about tomorrow,

C                  F               G               C

I don't need anything money can buy.

C                        F       G        Am

 I don't have to beg, steal or borrow,

                     F       G     C

I just wanna live until I die.

    C                        F       G        Am

+  I don't have to beg, steal or borrow - - -

                         F        G    C

    I just wanna live until I die.

+  C - G - Am   - F - G - C
