Song for Life Lyrics

Alison Krauss - Song For Life
This song has been done by several different people, including The
Seldom Scene, and Alan Jackson. But this is the version I have
heard most.
There is some arpeggiation during the intro, but I will leave that
to you to figure out.
D A Bm D7 G A7 D A (same as verse)
I don't drink as much as I used to
G A7 D A (walk up A-B-C#)
Lately, it just ain't my style
And hard times don't last like they used to
They pass quicker, like when I was a child.
horus
Somehow I've learned how to listen
To a sound like the sun going down
And the magic the morning is bringing home
a song for a life I have found
It keeps my feet on the ground
--Play verse again
second verse
The midsummer days sit so heavy
but don't they blow like a breeze through your mind
when nothing appears in a hurry
to make up for someone's lost time
repeat chorus
(*A note on the chorus---the version by The Seldom Scene has a
somewhat different last chorus. This may be the original words,
and were changed for soon to be obvious reasons(Alison being a woman
and all) It only affects the last two lines:
A song for a girl I have found
She keeps my feet on the ground
Also, Alan Jackson uses friend instead of girl I believe, although
I'm not sure if he says he or she on the next line.
So use whichever version you like best, or best suits your gender*)
