Life I've Got by Austin Lucas, from Somebody Loves You Standard tuning, capo on 2 Listen to the song for strumming and picking patterns, I'll try to explain them but they're pretty straight forward Fmaj7 Cmaj9 e: 0 x a: 1 1 d: 2 0 g: 3 0 b: x 2 e: x x intro G C Fmaj7 G from the C chord you hammer on the second fret on your D string and form your fmaj7, hammer on the second fret of the G string and let it ring open, then back to the G verse 1 Am F C walk down to Cmaj9 I couldn't fall asleep again, my breath was ash and sour Am F C / Cmaj9 With the echoes of your rising voice that split my ears like a former lover F G C / Cmaj9 / Am I'm sorry if I brought you down to the place where I've been dwelling F G Am But I haven't learned to live without your spark F G C and play the intro diddy And I've got to somehow live this life I've got verse 2 Am F C / Cmaj9 So you spit me out in a decaying world with but the faintest light to guide me Am F C / Cmaj9 And I find and walk that path I've known to be reserved for the slowly dying F G C / Cmaj9 / Am Yes I know how to paint the town and carry on with women F G Am But if you think that's what I want oh girl you're wrong F G C -intro- But I guess that's just how I'm living now that you're gone verse 3 Am F C / Cmaj9 So when I called you, you cried again and with each sob I grew bitter Am F C / Cmaj9 And though I long to hear your sweetest voice it so shakes me I might shatter F G C / Cmaj9 / Am Are you trying to bring me down when I was feeling so much better Fm G Am Or leave me looking for your love where it is not F G C / Cmaj9 / Am Well I guess I'm finally learning now I guess I'm finally learning how F G C into riff and finish on a C I guess I learned how to live with the life I've got It may look a little confusing but I assure you it makes sense if you play along. Very simple but a real fun song, one of my favourites to belt out
