This song is on Ray Charles' country album 'Wish You were Here Tonight' circa 1982 or 1983. I picked it up around 1984. It's really a good country song -- try to check it out. I worked this song out off the record, so it's all my own work and may not be perfectly accurate, but it works for me. Hope it does for you, too. 3/4 Time - Ray Charles Verse 1: D A I like enchilados and old El Dorados that shine D And old friend the guitar and songs and women and wine G They say that I'm livin to fast but I'm feelin fine (yeah) A D And I just keep easin along in 3/4 time D A Sometimes I get sideways and stay up all night writin songs D They say it ain't healthy but somehow I keep goin on (I do) G I write what I feel and don't care if the damn thing don't rhyme (no) A D Just gimme a C chord and play it in 3/4 time (got it) Chorus: G D It's a big old world and we all have to live out our lives E A And one thing's for sure ain't none of gonna get out alive(uhuh,sorry) Verse 2: D A So while I'm still kickin I'm gonna keep pickin my tunes D I like what I'm doin and I hope it don't end too soon G Cause all a my life there's one thing I keep hopin to find (yes) A D A woman who likes to make love in 3/4 time (be nice ya know) Chorus: G D It's a big old world and we all have to live out our lives E A And one thing's for sure ain't none of gonna get out alive(uhuh,sorry)
