Live Before You Die

(intro 2x)  G    C

(verse)
G                               C
A little boy of nine years old, the 
whole world in his hands
G                                 
Trying to toss that ball across 
        C
the yard, a game of catch with my 
old man
Am                             C
He'd always say i'm sorry every time
 he had to leave
Am                       
And I was much to young to 
                 C
understand what he would say to me

(chorus)
D                                 
When you're young you always think
     C
 the sun is gonna shine
D                                 
There come a day you'll have to 
  C
say hello to goodbye
D                               C
Sit down son come take my hand, look
 me in the eye
        Am              C      
Take these words promise me your 
                    G
gonna live before you die

(verse 2)
G                          G
I was barely seventeen, the summer 
of seventy nine
G                           G
Already I was feeling like I was 
running out of time
Am                                
I had this girl we fell in love, 
        C
or should I say that she had me
Am                                
Then one fateful night changed our
          C
 lives and made a memory

(chorus)
When youre young you always think 
the sun is gonna shine
There will come a day you'll have to
 say hello to goodbye
She laid me down she took my hand 
and looked me in the eye
And just before she kissed me she 
said you're gonna live before die

( G )

(bridge)
    Am       C       D
You learn to love to live
    Am        C      D
You fight and you forgive
    Am         C          D
You learn whats wrong and right
          Am       C      G
You gotta live before you dieee

G                              
Ive made mistakes I've caught my 
          C
breaks, but i've got no regrets
        G                          
Theres some things I don't remember
          C
 but one thing I dont forget

(chorus)
When you're young you always think 
the sun is gonna shine
There will come a day you'll have to
 say hello to goodbye
Shout it out let someone somewhere 
know that your alive
Take these words wear them well, you
 gotta live before you die

(bridge)
You learn to love to live
You fight and you forgive
You face the darkest night
Just live before you die
