Verse
F Am
Now that I have lived
A# C
D lifetime's worth of days
F Am
Finally I see
A# C
The folly of my ways
F Am
So listen when I sing of
A# C
The temptations of this world
F Am
Fancy cars and needles
A# C
Whisky, flesh and pearls
A# C
And then in the end
F A#
It's family and friends
A# C
Loving yourself
Am A#
But not only yourself
A#
Its about the good walk
C
And the hard walk
Am A#
And the young girls you've made cry
C
It's about make a little music everyday 'til you di-ie
[Chorus]
F Am
It's a beautiful ride (Beautifull ride)
Cm A#
Beautiful Ri-de (Beautiful ride)
Db C F
Beautiful beautiful ride
[Verse]
F Am
As I stand on the precipice of death
A# C
My perspective is enormous
F Am
Every leaf, every cloud
A# C
I see the hands which have formed us
F Am
And some days all you got
A# C
Is a nighttime graveyard walk
F Am
And you whistle some sweet melody
A# G
To the ghosts down at the dock
[Bridge]
A C#m
Sing in to your hand
D E
Lead the marching band
A C#m D E
Dont you let 'em fade your colors gray
A C#m
'Cause when all is said and done
D E
When youth is spent and burned
A C#m
You'll see that it's all about
D
Music!
Flowers!
Babies!
Sharing the good times!
Traveling not just for business!
Accepting your mortality!
D E
This is finally what I've learned!
D E
And then in the end
A D
It's family and friends
D E
Loving yourself
C# D
But not only yourself
D
It's about the good walk
And the hard walk
And the young girls you've made cry
D E
It's about make a little music everyday 'til you di-ie
[Chorus]
A C#m
It's a beautiful ride (Beautifull ride)
Em D
Beautiful Ri-de
Dm C# A
Beautiful beautiful ride
Em D
Beautiful Ri-de
Dm C#m A
Beautiful beautiful ride
