Tim McGraw ☆ Live Like You Were Dying

He said, “I was in my early 40’s,
With a lot of life before me,
When a moment came that stopped me on a dime,
I spent most of the next days,
Looking at the X-rays,
Talking ’bout the options, and talking ’bout sweet time,
I asked him when it sank in,
That this might really be the real end,
How’s it hit ya when you get that kind of news,
Man, what’d ya do,”
And he said,

“I went skydiving,
I went rocky mountain climbing,
I went 2.7 seconds on a bull named Fumanchu,
And I loved deeper,
and I spoke sweeter,
And I gave forgiveness I’d been denying,”
And he said, “someday I hope you get the chance,
To live like you were dyin'”

He said, “I was finally the husband,
that most the time I wasn’t,
And I became a friend a friend would like to have,
And all of a sudden goin’ fishin,
Wasn’t such an imposition,
And I went 3 times that year I lost my dad,
Well I, I finally read the good book,
And I took a good long hard look,
At what I’d do if I could do it all again ,
And then…

I went skydiving,
I went rocky mountain climbing ,
I went 2.7 seconds on a bull named Fumanchu,
And I loved deeper,
And I spoke sweeter,
And I gave forgiveness I’d been denying,”
And he said, “someday I hope you get the chance,
To live like you were dyin'”

Like tomorrow was a gift,
And you got eternity to think about what’d you do with it,
What could you do with it?
What did I do with it?
What would I do with it?

Skydiving,
I went rocky mountain climbing,
I went 2.7 seconds on a bull named Fumanchu,
And I loved deeper,
And I spoke sweeter,
And I watched an eagle as it was flying,
And he said, Someday I hope you get the chance,
To live like you were dyin’
Live like you were dyin’
Live like you were dyin’
Live like you were dyin’
Live like you were dyin’
