  			G          D7         G                     C 
No need to say you're sorry no need to feel ashamed 

               G            A7                   D7 
If I'm not the one you love don't feel you're to blame 

G       D7      G                                 C 
I don't deny it hurts me and this pain is hard to hide 

                        G           D7       G 
But at least I lived a little while before I died 

  
C                               G 
I lived long enough to know the sweet thrill of your lips 

A7                     D7 
I knew happiness right down to my fingertips 

G                                                 C 
You'll always be a part of me though you can't be mine 

                   G            D7       G 
At least I lived a little while before I died 

  
             D7        G                              C 
Don't ask me to forget you cause you mean too much to me 

                G          A7           D7 
I couldn't even if I tried too many memories 

G        D7        G                                   C 
My yesterdays were happy days and each memory's locked inside 

                   G            D7       G 
At least I lived a little while before I died 

  
C                               G 
I lived long enough to know the sweet thrill of your lips 

A7                     D7 
I knew happiness right down to my fingertips 

G                                                 C 
You'll always be a part of me though you can't be mine 

                   G            D7       G 
At least I lived a little while before I died
