Life Moments By Jeff Gilpin


August 18, 2013




[D]I open my [A]eyes


Wash my [G]face greet the [A]morning


While [D]you are down [A]stairs


Already [G]been up a [A]while


[Bm]I plop down be[G]side you


Share your [Bm]space


Without [G]warning


While [D]you tole[A]rate


Like you always [G]do [D]




[Dm]I want to keep this [Am7]moment


And [Dm]make it last for[Am7]ever


But [Dm]life has a funny [F]way of denying my [A]plans [G]


[D]You’re off to [A]work


[G]No time to dilly [A]dally


While [D]I’d rather [A]spend


Every [G]moment with [A]you



[Bm]I hold you close [G]to me


[Bm]As if I had the [G]power


To [D]keep you for[A]ever


In my [G]arms [D]


[Dm]I want to keep this [Am7]moment


And [Dm]make it last for[Am7]ever


But [Dm]life has a funny [F]way of denying my [A]plans [G]


[D]You’re about out the [A]door


Se[G]lecting your [A]shoes


“Does [D]this go to[A]gether


With [G]what I have [A]on?”


[Bm]The shoes are [G]fine


But [Bm]we’re out of the [G]time


A [D]kiss and a [A]smile


And [G]you’re [D]gone


[Dm]I want to keep this [Am7]moment


And [Dm]make it last for[Am7]ever


But [Dm]life has a funny [F]way of denying my [A]plans [G] [Dsus4] [Dsus2] [D]

Re: Life Moments

hi jeff.

liberal use of the dreaded Bm!!! a lovelly waltz my friend. the feeling i get as i listened is that you were quite emotional as if you were ready to burst into tears?

well done

Ask not what Chordie can do for you, but what you can do for Chordie.

Re: Life Moments

Thanks Phill. No tears. I was just appreciating time I spend with that gal of mine. She was heading off to work at a local winery and I was envious of all those the patrons who would get to spend that day with her.

Re: Life Moments

not to mention the free drinks?


i know what you mean though, i don't think i could handle life without my lady. she gives me a hard time now and then, but it's the loving moments i remember

Ask not what Chordie can do for you, but what you can do for Chordie.
