Dear Axel,

You'll find "Song for Life" lyrics and chords at the COWPIE site below. COWPIE has quite a few other Alison Krauss tunes and is a wonderful place to look for just about anything country or western.

From: Jim Dixon

SONG FOR LIFE
(Rodney Crowell)
Sung by Alison Krauss on "Too Late To Cry" (1987)

D              A         Bm       D7
I don't drink as much as I used to.
G A7 D A
Lately, it just ain't my style,
D A Bm D7
And hard times don't last like they used to.
G A7 D
They pass quicker, like when I was a child.

CHORUS:
G A7 D
Somehow I've learned how to listen
G A7 Bm D7
To a sound like the sun going down,
G A7 D G
And the magic the morning is bringing home
D A Bm D7
A song for a life I have found.
G A7 D
It keeps my feet on the ground.

The midsummer days sit so heavy
But don't they blow like a breeze through your mind,
When nothing appears in a hurry
To make up for someone's lost time? CHORUS

From: catspaw49

Sorry, couldn't find the chords too, but...........

TOO LATE TO CRY
......The Stanley Brothers

Come take me by my trembling hand
And hold me close to you
And think of all the days gone by
The day when love was true

    Come go with me to the old depot
    And wave your hand good-bye
    I know I've done you wrong sweetheart
    But now it's too late to cry

Sweetheart of mine, I hate to go
And leave you here all alone
May God protect and keep you
Wherever you may roam


Spaw
