Song For Life Ukulele tab

	  There is some arpeggiation during the intro, but I will leave that 
to you to figure out. 
 
{Intro}  D A Bm D7 G A7 D A      (same as verse) 
   
{Verse 1} 
 
  D              A         Bm       D7  
I don't drink as much as I used to
G          A7            D       A (walk up A-B-C#) 
Lately, it just ain't my style 
D                    A              Bm        D7     
And hard times don't last like they used to 
G                       A7           D 
They pass quicker, like when I was a child. 
 
{Chorus} 
 
G            A7             D 
Somehow I've learned how to listen 
     G              A7        Bm     D7 
To a sound like the sun going down 
        G         A7         D        G 
And the magic the morning is bringing home 
  D          A           Bm     D7 
a song for a life I have found 
G           A7          D 
It keeps my feet on the ground 
 
 
{Solo}--Play verse again 
 
{second verse} 
 
The midsummer days sit so heavy 
but don't they blow like a breeze through your mind 
when nothing appears in a hurry 
to make up for someone's lost time 
 
{repeat chorus} 
 
(*A note on the chorus---the version by The Seldom Scene has a 
  somewhat different last chorus.  This may be the original words, 
  and were changed for soon to be obvious reasons(Alison being a woman 
  and all)  It only affects the last two lines: 
 
  A song for a girl I have found 
  She keeps my feet on the ground 
 
  Also, Alan Jackson uses friend instead of girl I believe, although 
  I'm not sure if he says he or she on the next line.   
 
  So use whichever version you like best, or best suits your gender*)
