	        (verse 1)   
D				 G/A  -  D   
I've been lately thinking about my lifetime,   
                                      G/A   
All the things I've done and how it's been,   
    D			     G/A      D   
And I can't help believin' in my own mind,   
                                G/A   
I know I'm gonna hate to see it end,   
   
   
(verse 2)   
D			      G/A             D   
I've seen alot of sunshine, slept out in the rain.   
                               G/A   
Spent a night or two all on my own,   
D				G/A              D   
I've known my lady's pleasures, had myself some friends,   
                              G/A   
Spent a time or two in my own home,   

G A7 D G And I have to say it now, it's been a good life all in all, D Bm Em A7 It's really fine to have a chance to hang around, G A7 D G And lie there by the fire, and watch the evenin' tire, D Bm Em7 A7 while all my friends and my old lady, sit and pass the pipe around, G Fm G D And talk of poems and prayers and promises, and things that we believe in, Dmaj7 G A How sweet it is to love someone, how right it is to care, G Fmaj7 Em D How long it's been since yesterday, what about tomorrow, Dmaj7 G A D - G - D And what about our dreams, and all the memories we share,
(verse 3) D G/A D The days, they pass so quickly now, nights are seldom long, G/A Time around me whispers when it's cold, D G/A D Changes some how frighten me, still I have to smile, G/A It turns me on to think of growing old, (verse 4) D G/A D For tho' my life's been good to me, there's still so much to do, G/A So many things my mind has never known, D G/A D I'd like to raise a family, I'd like to sail away, G/A And dance across the mountains on the moon, (chorus) G A7 D G And I have to say it now, it's been a good life all in all, D Bm Em A7 It's really fine to have a chance to hang around, G A7 D G And lie there by the fire, and watch the evenin' tire, D Bm Em7 A7 while all my friends and my old lady, sit and pass the pipe around, G Fm G D And talk of poems and prayers and promises, and things that we believe in, Dmaj7 G A How sweet it is to love someone, how right it is to care, G Fmaj7 Em D How long it's been since yesterday, what about tomorrow, Dmaj7 G A D - G - D And what about our dreams, and all the memories we share,
