Live Like You Were Dying(Chords)

	        G				  C9			  
He said I was in my early forties with a lot of life before me  
          Em	            D	          C 
and a moment came that stopped me on a dime  
             G		    C9 
I spent most of the next days looking at the x-rays 
Em		D	     C	     
talking 'bout the options and talkin' 'bout sweet time 
 
E			 Eb 
I asked him when it sank in if this might really be the real end  
               D			             C 
How's it hit 'cha when you get that kind of news, man what'cha do 
 
G 
I went sky diving 
           C 	 
I went rocky mountain climbing 
           Em	          D		  C		 
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu 
           G		             B7      		 Em     D                             C 
And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter and I gave forgiveness id been denying  
				         D			           G		 
and he said some day I hope you get the chance to live like you were dying 
 
He said I was finally the husband that most the time I wasn't 
And I became a friend a friend would like to have 
And all of a sudden going fishin' wasn't such an imposition 
And I went three times that year I lost my dad 
Well I finally read the Good Book  
and I took a good long hard look at what id do if I could do it all again and then... 
 
I went sky diving 
I went rocky mountain climbing 
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu 
And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter and I gave forgiveness id been denying  
and he said some day I hope you get the chance to live like you were dying 
 
Like tomorrow was a gift and you got eternity to think about what you'd do with it 
What could you do with it 
What could I do with it 
What would I do with it 
 
Chorus 
To live like you were dying x 4
