Intro:

D    A    D


Verse 1:
 D                               G             D        F#m
It's a holiday today, Spent the morning sleeping in
                   G               A
Read the whole newspaper, can’t remember, last time I did
           Bm                          G                 A
It's so quiet in this house, gone the rush there used to be
D                               A
Not that all the noise really ever bothered me
        G                          A
I was somewhere in the mix, had my place there in the race,
Bm                          G
Love in my heart and on my face.

Chorus:
        D                A                G              A
Had my home, through and through, had my work, always to do,
       Bm                G            D            A       G       D
had my dreams, all come true, had my life, it was you.


Verse 2:
D                                           A
There's this question in my head, ringing louder every day
G                     A       D                  G
What am I still doing here, anyway? Don't feel sorry for myself
       A                     D                              G
Just think my time has come, I had my glory days and now they're done
   G                              A
Want to lay down in the pages, of our photographs
  Bm                                G
Where I was there beside you man, you made me laugh


Chorus:
       D                A                 G              A
Had my home, through and through, had my work, always to do
     Bm                  G            D           A      G       D
Had my dreams, all come true, had my life, it was you


Verse 3:
          D                               A
And I'd do it all again, send my heart back 50 years
   Bm                                                   G
Though I knew one day, time would send me right back here
     G                                A
Without you, my standing stone, my ringer in the fight
   Bm                         G
I could go 100 rounds, with you there by my side
     G                          A
But now the bell has rung, and everyone went home
    Bm                              G
While I was left to watch you fade, to skin and bone
    G                               A
I know you had to go; your number called too many times
    Bm                                           G
Just wish I could have been beside you in that line.


Chorus:
        D                  A              G            A
Had my home, through and through, had my work, always to do
       Bm               G             D            A
Had my dreams, all come true, had my life, it was you,


Outro:
      G            A                 G        A         D
Had my life, it was you, ……   had my life……
