[Verse 1]
F# G#
My friend drove off the other day
F# C# G# F#
And now he's gone and all they say
G# F# C# G#
Is you gotta live 'cause life goes on
F# G# F#
But now I see I'm mortal too
C# G# F#
I can't live my life like you
G# F# C# G#
Gotta live it up while life goes on
[Chorus]
F# C#
And I think it's alright
G# F# C#
That I do what I like 'cause that's the way I wanna live
G#
It’s how I give
F#
And I'm still giving
[Interlude]
F# C# G# C#
F# C# G# F#
[Verse 2]
F# G# F#
And now I wonder about my friend
C# G# F#
If he gave all he could give
G# F# C# G#
'Cause he lived his life like I live mine
F# G# F#
If you could see inside my head
C# G# F#
Then you'd start to understand
G# F# C# G#
The things I value in my heart
[Chorus]
F# C#
And I think it's alright
G# F# C#
That I do what I like 'cause that's the way I wanna live
G#
It’s how I give
F#
And I'm still giving
[Interlude]
F# C# G# C# x4

B F#
You know that
C# G#
I know that
B F# G#
You're watching me
[Solo]
F# G#
F# C# G# x2
[Chorus]
F# C#
And I think it's alright
G# F# C#
That I do what I like 'cause that's the way I wanna live
G#
It’s how I give
F#
And I'm still giving
[Interlude]
F# C# G# C# x4
[Outro]
N.C.
Gotta make a plan
Gotta do what's right
Can't run around in circles
N.C.
If you want to build a life
But I don't want to make a plan
For a day far away
N.C.
While I'm young and while I'm able
