You Only Live Once Chords & Lyrics - Mickey Newbury

[C]We only live [C7]once in a [F]while [Dm]
So let's [G7]live for [Dm]today we're [C]alive [G]
[C]Between the first step [F]and the last [Dm]mile
We [G7]only live once in a [C]while [G]

The [C]hobo's taken the [Dm]last milk-train home
[G]Bluebird's finished her [C]singing and gone
My lady and [C7]me we'll be [F]up for the [Dm]dawn
You [G]only live once in a [C]while [G7]

Yes we [C]only live [C7]once in a [F]while [Dm]
So let's [G7]live for [Dm]today we're [C]alive [G]
[C]Between the first tear [F]and the last [Dm]smile
We [G7]only live once in a [C]while [G7]

See the [C]willow how she [Dm]catches the wind
[G]Following me down the [C]road round the bend
Over the [C7]years she has [F]taught me my [Dm]friends
That we [G]only live once in a [C]while [G7]

Yes we [C]only live [C7]once in a [F]while [Dm]
So let's [G7]live for [Dm]today we're [C]alive [G]
[C]Between the first step [F]and the last [Dm]smile
We [G7]only live once in a [C]while
