[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]I've been lately thinking
about [G]my life's [D]time
All [G]the thing[D]s I've done,
how it's [G]been
And [D]I can't help believing in m[G]y own m[D]ind
I know I'm gonna hate
to see it en[G]d

[Verse 2]
[D]I've seen a lot of sunshine,
[G]slept out in the [D]rain
Spent a night or two all on my [G]own
I've [D]known my lady's pleasures,
[G]had myself some friends
[D]And spent a night or two in my own hom[G]e

[Verse 3]
I [G]have to say it now,
[A]it's been a goo[D]d life, all in all[G]
It's really [D]fine to have a chance
[Bm]to hang arou[Em]nd[A]
And [G]lie there by [A]the fire and
[D]watch the evening [G]tire
While all [D]my friends and my old [G]lady
[Bm]sit and pass[Em] the pipe around
[A]

[Verse 4]
Talk of [G]poems and prayers and [F#m]promises
and [Em]things that we [D]believe in
How sweet it is to love someone,
[G]how right it is [A]to care
How [G]long it's been since [F#m]yes terday
[Em]and what about tomor[D]row?
What about our dreams and all the
[Em]memories we share?

[Interlude 1]
[A][D]

[Verse 5]
[D]The days they pass so quickly now,
[G]nights are seldom [D]long
Time around me whispers
when it's [G]cold
[D]The changes somehow frighten me,
[G]still I have [D]to smile
It turns me on to think of growing old
[G]

[Verse 6]
[D]For though my life's been good to
me [G]there's still so much to [D]do
So many things my mind's never [G]known
I'd [D]like to raise a family,
I'd [G]like to sail [D]away
And dance across the mountains on the [G]moon,
[C]yes [G]I would

[Verse 7]
I [G]have to say it now,
[A]it's been a goo[D]d life, all in all[G]
It's really [D]fine to have the chance
[Bm]to hang arou[Em]nd[A]
And [G]lie there by [A]the fire and
[D]watch the evening [G]tire
While all my [D]friends and my old [Bm]lady,
sit [Em]and watch the sun go down
[A]

[Verse 8]
Talk of [G]poems and prayers and [F#m]promises
and [Em]things that we be[D]lieve in
How sweet it is to love someone,
[G]how right it is [A]to care
How [G]long it's been since [F#m]yes terday
[Em]and what about t[D]omorrow?
What about our dreams and all
the [Em]memories we share?
