Bon Jovi – Dyin’ Ain’t Much Of A Living

Intro: Em  D (x4) 
 
Verse 1: 
 Am              D  
 A whisky bottle comforts me 
    G               C          
And tells me not to cry 
 Am                       D  
While a full moon says a prayer for me  
  C               E        
I try to close my eyes 
  
Verse 2: 
 Am                       D  
But the night's there to remind me 
       G            D     C          
Of the guns and the early graves 
    Am                 D  
The ghosts appear as I fall asleep 
           C        D    G               
To sing an outlaw's serenade 
 
Chorus: 
 Dm                    G  
Dyin' ain't much of a livin' 
            C      C/B    Am  
When you're livin' on the run 
 Dm                    G              Am  G5 A5 G5 A5  
Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young 
 
 Dm                        G  
Is it too late to ask for forgiveness 
        C           C/B    Am  
For the things that I have done 
 Dm                    G              C         
Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young 
 
Em D }x4  
 
Verse 3: 
The desert's been a friend to me 
It covers me by night 
And a snakebite's not my enemy 
But it taught me how to fight 
 
Verse 4: 
All this fame don't bring you freedom 
Though it wears a thin disguise 
When an outlaw is just a man to me 
And a man has to die 
 
Chorus: 
Dyin' ain't much of a livin' 
When you're livin' on the run 
Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young 
Is it too late to ask for forgiveness 
For the things that I have done 
Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young 
 
 Am          C  
   nanananaa   (x3) 
 
And I hope someone will pray for me  
When it's my turn to die... pray for me 
 
Chorus: 
 Dm                    G  
Dyin' ain't much of a livin' 
            C      C/B    Am  
When you're livin' on the run 
 Dm                    G              Am G5 A5 G5 A5  
Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young 
 
 Dm                        G  
Is it too late to ask for forgiveness 
        C           C/B    Am  
For the things that I have done 
 Dm                    G              C         
Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young 
 
 Am          C
