G C
By the looks of everyone it?s been a long two weeks
G D
Coming up on the business end of a goodluck streak
G C
Gave ?em hell in New York City, headed down to New Orleans
G D
Drove across Mississippi in the rain
G C
It don?t seem to freeze too much down in New Orleans
G D
But the rain can sure wash out the street
G C
Across the snowline, man it was just in time
G D G
They diggin ?em out everywhere north of the Chesapeake
C G
And I?m up too damn early in the morning
C G
Watching the world around me come alive
C G Em
And I need more fingers to count the ones I love
C D G
This life may be too good to survive
verse 2
G C
They cancelled a parade or two for weather
G D
The kings and saints their roads all soaking wet
G C
We were happy just to all be there together
G D C
Stoned on the porch smoking on Nicky?s cigarettes
G C
And we?ve been riding down this highway now for all these years
G D
Breathing in the dust along the way
G C
But it?s the kindness of a friend that is remembered in the end
G D G
It is a debt that is a pleasure to repay
C G
And it never feels like we?re getting any older
C G
But the memories build up around the eyes
C D G Em
And I need more fingers then I got on my two hands
C D G
This life may be too good to survive

Em G
We were dressed to celebrate your wedding day
C Em
We marched along with the St. Anne?s Parade
C G
Sang out our hearts while they sent away their dead
C D
The sun shone on the river, we begin our lives instead
C G
And I?m up too damn early in the morning
C G
I can?t remmeber feeling so alive
C D G Em
And I need more fingers to count the ones I love

This life may be too good to survive

This life may be too good to survive
