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

It's a beautiful ride (Beautifull ride)
