I'VE LIVED A LOT IN MY TIME
WRITTEN AND RECORDED BY JIM REEVES
KEY=
()- I ONCE HAD A MANSION AND ()- LIVED IN MY ()- GLORY,
BUT NOW I'M DOWN TO MY LAST ()- DIME,
()- I HAD A SWEETHEART, BUT ()- I WAS UN- ()- FAITHFUL,
OH, I'VE LIVED A ()- LOT IN MY ()- TIME.
1ST CHORUS
I'VE ()- FOUGHT THE GRIM REAPER, DOWN ()- IN THE DARK VALLEY,
I'VE PRAYED WHEN THE SUN WOULDN'T ()- SHINE,
I'VE ()- LOOKED THROUGH THE BARS OF A ()- COLD LONELY ()- PRISON,
OH, I'VE LIVED A ()- LOT IN MY ()- TIME.
I'VE BEEN A SOLDIER, AND I'VE BEEN A RAMBLER,
ONCE THOUGHT THAT EVERYTHING WAS FINE,
I'VE HOED IN THE CORN AND I'VE PICKED IN THE COTTON,
YES, I'VE LIVED A LOT IN MY TIME.
2ND CHORUS
I'VE WALKED WITH MY MASTER, DOWN IN THE DARK VALLEY,
AND WONDERFUL PEACE I DID FIND,
SOMEDAY I'LL JOURNEY TO EDEN'S GREEN PASTURES,
YES, I'VE LIVED A LOT IN MY TIME.
