[Intro]
Em G D C
Em G D C
[Verse 1]
Em
I've watched a California sunset
G
Burn from orange to gold
D
Bought a pawn shop six string
C
Sold my soul to rock and roll
Em
They say if you ain't busy livin'
G
Then you're just dyin' slow
D C
I wanna say I've done it all by the time it's time to go
Em G
Where and when and what'll be the death of me
Em D Cadd9 G/B Am
Well, heaven only knows
[Chorus]
Em G
It might be the highway and it might be these songs
D C
It might be the whiskey or the smoke inside these lungs
Em
Ain't no way around it
G
One day I'm gonna die
D C
If something's gonna kill me might as well be
Em D/F# G D C
What makes me feel alive
[Verse 2]
Em
I've loved a damn good woman
G
I've had to let one go
D
Rode life's rollercoasters
C
Mountain highs and valley lows
Em
Broke 100 on two wheels
G
Found revival on the road
D C
The devil's always on my heels but I keep him on his toes
[Chorus]
Em G
And it might be the highway and it might be these songs
D C
It might be the whiskey or the smoke inside these lungs
Em
Ain't no way around it
G
One day I'm gonna die

If something's gonna kill me might as well be

What makes me feel alive
