G Em7 C(add9) D
Take a look at me and tell me what you find
G Em7 C(add9) D
A drunken bum, lazy womanising swine
G Em7 C(add9) D
Well maybe so but you don't know the life I've had
G Em7 C(add9) D
I've walked with kings and lost it all but hey I'm glad
C(add9) D G Em7
cos when they bring the news that i was drinking champagne when i died
C(add9) D G Em7
and my sixth wife will tell the gathered crowds now please don't cry
C(add9) D
you see, my friend
G Em7 C(add9) D
I have lived each moment of each day
G Em7 C(add9) D
I have lived, you can't take that away
C(add9)
I've lived, I've died
D
I've laughed and cried
G Em7
cheated and i've been forgiven
C(add9) D
but most of all i've lived
I've Lived
Written by Alistair Griffin
Cocktail shaker and book-maker are my friends
drink from dusk till dawn the laughter never ends
You look at me and tell me that's no way to live
I reply now I gave it all I have to give
cos when they bring the news that i was drinking champagne when i died
and my sixth wife will tell the gathered crowds now please don't cry
you see, my friend
I have lived each moment of each day
I have lived, you can't take that away
I have lived each moment of each day
I have lived, they can't take that away
I've lived I've died
I've laughed and cried
cheated and i've been forgiven
but most of all i have lived
