Dyin' Ain't Much of a Livin'

A Whiskey Bottle Comforts Me
And Tells Me Not to Cry
While a Full Moon Says a Prayer For Me
I Try to Close My Eyes

But the Night's There to Remind Me
Of the Guns and the Early Graves
The Ghosts Appear As I Fall Asleep
To Sing An Outlaw's Serenade

Dyin' Ain't Much of a Livin'
When You're Livin' On the Run
Dyin' Ain't Much of a Livin' For the Young
Is It Too Late to Ask For Forgiveness
For the Things That I Have Done
Dyin' Ain't Much of a Livin' For the Young

The Desert's Been a Friend to Me
It Covers Me By Night
And a Snakebite's Not My Enemy
But It Taught Me How to Fight

All This Fame Don't Bring You Freedom
Though It Wears a This Disguise
When An Outlaw Is Just a Man to Me
And a Man Has to Die

Dyin' Ain't Much of a Livin'
When You're Livin' On the Run
Dyin' Ain't Much of a Livin' For the Young
Is It Too Late to Ask For Forgiveness
For the Things That I Have Done
Dyin' Ain't Much of a Livin' For the Young

Solo

And I Hope Someone Will Pray For Me
When It's My Turn to Die... Pray For Me

Chorus
