Fitting Finales-The Life We Lead

The Live We Lead
(Smith)

When I think of the time that you were mine
It brings a tear to my eyes
Spending sunny days and quiet nights
Hanging down by the riverside

It ain't easy but we're free
For it's the life that we lead
It ain't easy but we're free
And it's the life that we lead, the life we lead

May I have a moment of your time
Share a dinner and a movie with a bottle of wine
Steal a little lovin' on the side
And maybe pick up what we left behind

It ain't easy but we're free
And it's the life that we lead
It ain't easy but we're free
And it's the life that we lead
The life we lead.

This came up as a spur of the moment song with me playing a two chord strum with a capo on the 2nd fret.  This song has taken a new life of its own on the recording with Rodney Albaugh to which he remarked that this is a very infectious song.  He also says it sounds much better with a new set of guitar strings  which he put on the Guild.  He's right it does sound better.
