Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[C]My[G][C][G]
[C]key turns in the lock
and I [Em]opened my front door
[F]Greeted by the darkness
like too [G]many times before
I [C]tiptoe in to kiss the children
[Em]but they're all asleep
[F]Wonder if they're dreaming about
[G]the date I didn't [Em]keep
[F]It was such a busy day [Em]I
just couldn't get away
[F]Cause you gotta make it while you [C]can
So [F]I remember dollar bills b[Em]usiness
deals and [Am]headache pills
But [Dm]I forgot to [G]live tod[C]ay
[Dm]I forgot to li[G]ve tod[C]ay
As I dressed for bed I [Em]think
about today
[F]Wonder what I got for all the
[G]time I gave away
[C]Traded my time for a [Em]dollar bill [F]didn't
see the sky but [G]I saw the mill
[F]Couldn't go to Jeannie's play missed
[Em]Timmy's ballgame yesterday
[F]Mary had to go for both of [C]us
While [F]I remember dollar bills b[Em]usiness
deals and [Am]headache pills
But [Dm]I forgot to li[G]ve tod[C]ay
[Dm]I forgot to [G]live tod[C]ay
[F]Born with all the time I'll [C]ever see each
[F]day another part slips [C]away from me
[Bb]But I forgot to live today[Gm][A][Bm][A]
[D]I slip into bed and I kis[F#m]s my Mary's cheek
[G]I can tell she's crying and
[A]I know she's not asleep
[D]I listen to the clock t[F#m]ick away
another night
[G]And swear that tomorrow I'll
make [A]everything right
[G]I'll remember building kites [F#m]mending
dolls and broken bikes
[G]Flowers from the woman in my [D]life
And [G]I remember who I love m[F#m]ore
than all [Bm]the stars above
Cause [Em]I forgot to [A]live tod[D]ay
[Em]I forgot to li[A]ve today
[D]
