Am G F x2
[Verse 1]
Am Well, I call this room to order G F Gather round now and hear my song Am If you're drunk or at its border G F Listen well, this won't take long Am There's no doubting fortune's favour G F When it tells you you're the one Am But may the real fruits of your labour G F Be sown by you alone
[Chorus 1]
C Oh, good life of singing F Good life of song Am F Won't you grant us our full measure
When our day is done
C Oh, good wine and winning F Good nights so long Am F Won't you ease us through our toiling
The road is very long
Am G F
[Verse 2]
Am After long weeks in the corner G F Where the wine won't make you drunk Am But you held your place with honour G F Among the bards and the troubadours Am This is no roaming lamentation G F No ode to those who've gone Am But a joyful incantation G F To the road we've come upon
[Chorus 2]
C Oh, good life of singing F Good life of song Am F Won't you ease us through our toiling
The road is very long
C Oh, good wine and winning F Good nights so long Am F Won't you grant us our full measure
For now we must go on
Am
Must go on[Post Chorus 1]
G F Good life of singing Am Good life of song G F Good life of singing Am Good life of song G F Good life of singing Am G F Good life of song
[Verse 3]
Am Go tell it on the mountain G F Let them know we passed this way Am Let them see we came as equals G F Let them know we weren't afraid Am And they'll feel your love of music G F In every note you play Am Well, it leaves you if you don't use it G F Don't let it slip away
[Chorus 3]
C Oh, good life of singing F Good life of song Am F How you granted us our measure
When our work was done
C Oh, good days of drinking F Good nights so long Am F How you eased us through our toiling
For now we must go on
Am
Must go on[Post Chorus 2]
G F Good life of singing Am Good life of song G F Good life of singing Am Good life of song G F Good life of singing Am Good life of song G F Good life of singing Am G F Good life so long
End on Am strum
