I'd Do It All Again

View chords used in this chart
C
Well the band was on its final break
 
F
When he came walking in
 
G7
The lines that showed more than his age
 
C
He was drunk worn and thin
 
He sat down behind the ol' piano
 
F
And he ran through a couple of notes
 
G7
And he said would somebody buy me a drink boys
 
C
To kinda help me clear my throat
 
And he said what would you give to hear a song
 
F
What prize do memories bring
 
G7
It ain't every day you get to hear
 
C
A living legend sing
 
I may forget a line or two
 
F
A few words now and then
 
G7
It takes a drink to make me think
 
C
And live it all again
 
This gray you see don't bother Jerry Lee
 
F
And neither do these lines
 
G7
I may have seen some better days boys
 
C
But God knows I ain't reached my prime
 
I've got some scars from a woman's war
 
F
And playing those one-night stands
 
G7
Lord only knows if I had the time
 
C
I'd do it all again
 
F G7
Yes I could still make 'em dance
 
C
Like I did in San Antone
 
F C
And I can still make 'em cry
 
D7 G7
And I can touch 'em with a song
 
I can still yet turn 'em on
 
F
The way that I did back then
 
G7
Lord only knows if I had the time
 
C
I'd do it all again
