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
