F                               C
Livin' with my back against the wall
F              C
Nowhere but forward to fall
F                             C
Well I close my eyes somebody catch my breath
Dm          Dm/E
Oh my Lord, let's get on board
    F                        G
The ride's gonna scare me to death

Refrão:

Dm            G               C    C/B Am Am/G
I don't wanna leave before my time is  done
Dm          G                    C    C/B Am Am/G
Don't wanna stick around when my race is  run
Dm            G              C    C/B Am    Am/G
I Don't wanna go before they call my  dance
Dm              G           F      C
Don't wanna die askin' for another chance

Come help me poor Richard, won't you help me raise a glass
Here's to me and here's to you,may your dreams all come to pass        
Cruel trick of time is played in the wink of an eye
Heaven's above don't need no shove
The years go sailin by

Refrão:

Another game of chance, a lifetime come and gone
I guess it's up to me, don't wanna sing another man's song
I wanna say what Grandma said lying on her dying bed
Yea I've been cheated, mistreated
I don't have to say that yet
