The Life of a Song

A D A Me, I'm just a singer, though I may be well-known A E The truth is I'd be nothing without the power of a song A D A I've been blessed with fame and fortune, oh but in the end E D A song's what I wish I could've been Chorus: D A A song lives forever and never ever dies F#m Sings enemies together and touches so many lives A Bm C#m D Words and melody will always be long after we're gone A E D E A Oh, how I wish I could live the life of a song I could mend the broke and wounded, I could prove that love is real And take someone from China to a Carolina cotton field I could comfort every soldier, hum all the homeless home I could change the world if I was just a song Repeat Chorus Instrumental: D E F#m D E A Bm There's an end for me, it's my destiny C#m D But this song will carry on...and it's just three minutes long A E D E F#m Oh, how I wish I could live the life of a song A E D A Oh, how I wish I could live the life of a song
