The Day That I Die

	  		   

Intro: D G Bm A (2x)   

D                  G   
Early morning in a motel room,    
Bm                  A   
Sunshine trying to creep on through.   
D                  G   
Lost sleep but I found a tune,    
Bm              A   
Stuck inside my head.   
D              G   
Cigarettes, a tank of gas,    
Bm                  A   
Headed off to nowhere fast,    
D                    G                 Bm  A   
Gotta find a way to make this feeling last.   

D                     G   
'Cause I believe that I,    
     Bm                  A   
Was born with a song inside of me.   
        D      G   
Never question why,    
Bm                          A   
I just keep on singing that melody.   
        D        G   
And as time goes by,    
         Bm        A                  G   
Oh it's funny how time can make you realize,    
              Bm      A   
We're running out of it.   

        G          D  
On the day that I die,    
         A      Bm  
I wanna say that I,    
      G                D.            A     Bm 
Was a man who really lived and never compromised.   
           G           D  
I want to live out my days,    
           A   Bm  
Until the very end,    

              G            D  
I hope they find me in my home   
         A            Bm  
With my guitar in my hands.   
             G             D  
I hope they find me in my home   
          A          D  
With my guitar in my hands.   




G D A Bm x2  



   D                    G   
A part of dawn to be ashamed of,    
     Bm                  A   
But good people are supposed to be up.   
     D                       G   
But I found peace with this path I took,    
   Bm             A   
As I lay down my head.   
D              G   
Crossroads you gotta choose,    
Bm                 A   
Which way could be win or lose.   
D                     G                 Bm A   
But every morning my soul seems to sing on through.   

          D           G   
'Cause I believe that I,    
     Bm                A   
Was born with a song inside of me.   
       D       G   
Never question why,    
        Bm                    A   
I just keep on singing that melody.   
        D         G   
And as time goes by,    
         Bm         A                G   
Oh it's funny how time can make you realize,    
              Bm     A   
We're running out of it.
