Live Like You Were Dying

G                                 C9
He said I was in my early forties with a lot of life before me
          Em                D             C
and a moment came that stopped me on a dime
             G              C9
I spent most of the next days looking at the x-rays
Em              D            C
talking 'bout the options and talkin' 'bout sweet time

E                        Eb
I asked him when it sank in if this might really be the real end
               D                                     C
How's it hit 'cha when you get that kind of news, man what'cha do

G
I went sky diving

           C
I went rocky mountain climbing
           Em             D               C
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu
           G                         B7                  Em     D                             C
And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter and I gave forgiveness id been denying
                                         D                                 G
and he said some day I hope you get the chance to live like you were dying

He said I was finally the husband that most the time I wasn't
And I became a friend a friend would like to have
And all of a sudden going fishin' wasn't such an imposition
And I went three times that year I lost my dad
Well I finally read the Good Book
and I took a good long hard look at what id do if I could do it all again and then...

I went sky diving
I went rocky mountain climbing
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu
And I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter and I gave forgiveness id been denying
and he said some day I hope you get the chance to live like you were dying

Like tomorrow was a gift and you got eternity to think about what you'd do with it
What could you do with it
What could I do with it
What would I do with it

Chorus
To live like you were dying x 4
