What A Way To Live

| A G | G A |

[Chorus]
       D            G  D
What a way to live.

[Verse 1]
A7    D7
 Each night I make the rounds, to every spot in town.
  G               D              Em7       A7    G
A lonely man with lonely time to kill.

[Chorus]
A       D             G  D
 What a way to live.

[Verse 2]
A7   D7                                                    D
 The paths my memories take, just make my poor heart ache.
G               D                Em7      A7    E
I think of her, I guess I always will.

[Chorus]
A7          A  D      G  D
 What a way to live.

[Verse 3]
A7   D7                         G
 I'd rather lay me down tonight and never wake again
E7                            A7
Than to face another day, the shape my life is in.

[Verse 4]
    D7  D9                  A7
The jukebox playing loud, a face among the crowd.
   G                 D                    Em        A7     Em7
So much like hers it makes my heart stand still.

[Chorus]
A           N.C.
 What a way to live.

[Verse 5]
D   D7                           G
  I'd rather lay me down tonight and never wake again.
E7                            A7
Than to face another day, the shape my life is in.

[Verse 6]

The jukebox playing loud, a face among the crowd.
G                    D                    Em7        A7     E7
So much like hers it makes my heart stand still.
