Misc Musicals – The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button - A Little Life (Guitar)

Em                 D   C
I got a blanket on my bed

         Em       D   C    Em7
I got a roof over my head

             D          C  G
But like my old man said

          Am            D
I've only got a little time

       Em7         D      C
I was born so close to dyin'

Em   Em7           D       C
With barley breath for sighin'

         Em7    D           C     G
That it hardly seems worth tryin'

        Am7 D
To even li-ive

    C     G           D            Em7
But all I want is to live a little life

        C             G              D             Em7
Feel a little bit of freedom, see a little bit of sea

    C         G            D               Em7
Oh, what I'd give for the little life I'd live

   C        D             G
If I could live a little life

                Em       D      C
I'd drink some sweet St Austell Ale

        Em        D       C
Then I'd weave a drunken trail

          Em          D         C   G
That ends the night in Bodmin Jail

         Am               D
With some drunk Kernowek fools

            Em     D       C
I'd catch a proper Cornish meal

           Em       D      C
I'd hook a mackerel on my reel

      Em        D        C     G
Just think how free I'd feel

         Am             D
With my feet upon the shore

    C     G           D            Em
But all I want is to live a little life

        C             G              D             Em
Do a little bit of drinking, lose a little of my heart

    C         G            D               Em
Oh, what I'd give for the little life I'd live

   C        D             G
If I could live a little life

             Am*                        Em*
I know I'll never be forgiven for the way my life began

          G*                               D
And that nothin' can repair the hurt I've done

       Am                          Em
But a little bit of livin' is the right of any man

       C                           D
And a little life ain't hurtin' anyone

    C     G           D            Em
But all I want is to live a little life (All I want is to live a little life)

        C             G              D             Em
Feel a little bit of freedom, see a little bit of sea (See a little bit of sea)

    C         G            D               Am
Oh, what I'd give for the little life I'd live (For the life I'd live)

   C        D             Em
If I could live a little life (If I could live a little life)

   C        D             G   C
If I could live a little life (Just a little bit of life)
