WAS THAT MY LIFE  - Jo Dee Messina



             Capo 4

Intro: D  Bm  G  A (x2) 
 
D             A                Bm                A 
I don't wanna be the one who's old before their time 
G             D          A 
And lose the wonder that I felt as a child 
D        A              Bm               A 
I can't run this race believin' I might lose 
G         D            A 
Still so much to see, so much left to do 
Bm                     F#m 
Yes I'll fall before I fly  
Bm                          A 
But no one can say I never tried 
 
tabchorus
D A Bm G Oh we just get one ride around the sun A In this dream of time D A Bm G It goes so fast but one day we look back A D And we ask, was that my life?

D  Bm  G  A 
 
D           A                  Bm           A 
I close my eyes and think how lucky I have been 
G            D               A 
To hold the ones I love and share my dreams with them 
D          A             Bm                 A 
All those sunny days and all those starry skies 
G             D      A 
Good morning kisses and sweet goodnights 
Bm                    F#m 
Oh I can't tell them enough 
Bm                           A 
Just how much that they are loved
