A Song For The Life chords by Johnny Cash

• Capo on 3rd

Intro:

F C Dm A# C F

Verse 1:
F         C      Dm
I don't drink the way that I used to
A#      C       F
Lately that just ain't my style
             C        Dm
And the hard times don't hurt like they once did
        A#      C      F
They pass more quickly like when I was wild


Chorus:
  A#      C        F
And somehow I've learned how to listen
   A#       C     Dm
To a sound like the sun going down
    A#     C      F   A#
In the magic the morning is bringing
     F             Dm   A#
There's a song for the life I have found
      C      F
It keeps my feet on the ground

Verse 2:
F       C        Dm
The midsummer days ain't too heavy
     A#      C         F
They just flow like a breeze through my mind
       C      Dm
And nothing appears in a hurry
  A#      C       F
To make up for some old lost times


Chorus:
  A#      C        F
And somehow I've learned how to listen
   A#       C     Dm
To a sound like the sun going down
    A#     C      F   A#
In the magic the morning is bringing
     F             Dm   A#
There's a song for the life I have found
      C      F
It keeps my feet on the ground


Chorus:
A#      C        F
somehow I've learned how to listen
   A#       C       Dm
To a sound like the breeze dyin' down
    A#     C      F   A#
In the magic the morning is bringing
     F             Dm   A#
There's a song for the life I have found
      C      F
It keeps my feet on the ground

Outro:
F A# C Dm  A# C Dm
