Verse
G# Cm
Now that I have lived
C# D#
F lifetime's worth of days
G# Cm
Finally I see
C# D#
The folly of my ways
G# Cm
So listen when I sing of
C# D#
The temptations of this world
G# Cm
Fancy cars and needles
C# D#
Whisky, flesh and pearls
C# D#
And then in the end
G# C#
It's family and friends
C# D#
Loving yourself
Cm C#
But not only yourself
C#
Its about the good walk
D#
And the hard walk
Cm C#
And the young girls you've made cry
D#
It's about make a little music everyday 'til you di-ie
[Chorus]
G# Cm
It's a beautiful ride (Beautifull ride)
D#m C#
Beautiful Ri-de (Beautiful ride)
Fb D# G#
Beautiful beautiful ride
[Verse]
G# Cm
As I stand on the precipice of death
C# D#
My perspective is enormous
G# Cm
Every leaf, every cloud
C# D#
I see the hands which have formed us
G# Cm
And some days all you got
C# D#
Is a nighttime graveyard walk
G# Cm
And you whistle some sweet melody
C# A#
To the ghosts down at the dock
[Bridge]
