18 Years

C
He spent 18 years livin' life to the brim
                          G
He fought harder than men two times as strong
C
I don't think there was a day
          F
When I saw him complain
         C               G                C
Something higher come and help me carry on
C
He was more than a friend to all of us
                                       G
His selflessness was why he held on for so long
C                        F
If I'm half the man that he was
C                 G                C
I'd be a man worth watchin' carry on

C                               Am
And I won't be fine but thanks for asking
F                            G
My heart is heavier than your lead
C                             F
It don't seem right to trade a dollar for a dime,
C                     G                  C
Lord above, why do you leave us all for dead?

C
He spent 18 years livin' life to the utmost
           G
Shifted my entire paradigm
C                                 F
Not a minute goes by where I don't think of all those days
C                  G                    C
In that short lived 18 years careening by

C                               Am
And I won't be fine but thanks for asking
F                            G
My heart is heavier than your lead
C                             F
It don't seem right to trade a dollar for a dime,
C                     G                  C
Lord above, why do you leave us all for dead?
