G D C G
i have slept on satin sheets , dined with kings and wine so sweet ,
C G C D
made my bed out in the street , living for a song .

G D C G
i spent a lifetime on the road , like desperadoes chasing gold ,
C G C D
ive been bought and ive been sold , living for a song .

chorus :

lifes so full of melodies , with words that rhyme and harmonies ,
until i write mine , ill always be living for a song .

spoken :
i came to town a long time ago , and its really been good to me as you all know ,
but all of us rhyme runners and word hunters have some things that weve been through ,
so i wrote this song , hoping i could tell some of them to you .

sung :
i have slept on lifes highway , muddy tears painting my face ,
a rhyme or two was my big payday , living for a song .
using words for my lifeline , forsaking all just for a rhyme ,
building steps i know i cant climb , living for a song .

repeat chorus

till i write mine ill always be living for a song
