Living Life Lyrics

Living Life - Daniel Johnston
I learnt this some years ago after hearing it on 'Before Sunrise' while I was learning
play guitar.
Guitar - Standard tuning EADGBE
Intro: Note hit the A short and sharp, dont let it ring. Listen to the recording to
what im saying.
Hold me like a mother would
Like i've always known somebody should yeah
Although tomorrow
It dont look that good E|--------------|
Well it just goes to show
Though people say were an unlikely couple
I'm seein' double
Of you
Chourus: This bit alternates rapidly a lot between the G and D chords, listen to the
to get the exact feel
(Strum lightly at first then build out towards the end before dropping onto the A and
E to take you back into the verse)
Ohhh This is life And everythings alright
G A G D (on the record the guitarist rapidly
Changes between the G, A and
Livin' livin' livin' livin' livin' Life maybe E and D chords.. too fast
for me to pick out so play
around here)
Verse:
Oh hope for the hopeless
I'm learning to cope with the emotionless mediocracy
Oh ho, day to day living D|----------0---|
How can I help but be restless when
Everything seems so tasteless and
All of the colours seem to have
Faded away
Chorus: As above
Outro: Just finish up there or you can repeat the intro again and dont forget to let the
note ring and say......'Life!'
Enjoy, this was my first tab and even something as simple as this takes time. I now
all the crazy guys out there
who interpret entire bridges and legnthy hendrix solos! Hats off to you!
