Verse 1: 0:54
           G               D
All of my life, I've been searching
         Em                 Am7
For the words to say how I feel.
1:05
      G                D
I'd spend my time thinking too much
               Em                   Am7
And leave too little to say what I mean.
1:17
        G                        D
But I try to understand the best I can
           G  | D
All of my life.

Verse 2: 1:28
           G                      D
All of my life, I've been saying sorry
          Em                         Am7
For the things I know I should have done,
1:39
          G                                 D
All the things I could have said come back to me,
             Em                      Am7
Sometimes I wish that it had just begun.
1:51
          G                       D
Seems I'm always that little too late
           G  | G C
All of my life.

Chorus: 2:02
F         C         G
  Set 'em up, I'll take a drink with you,
F             C        G
  Pull up a chair, I think I'll stay, hey,
2:14
F         C        G
  Set 'em up, 'cos I'm going nowhere,
         Am7                     Bm7
There's too much I need to remember,
             C
And there's too much I need to say.

Verse 3: 2:30
        G                  D
All of my life, I've been looking,
          Em               Am7
But it's hard to find the way
2:41
      G                          D
Just reaching past the goal in front of me,
                Em                  Am7
While what's important just slips away.
2:53
        G                              D
And it doesn't come back but I'll be looking
           G  | G
All of my life.

Chorus: 3:04
F         C         G
  Set 'em up, I'll take a drink with you,
F             C        G
  Pull up a chair, I think I'll stay, hey,
3:16
F         C        G
  Set 'em up, 'cos I'm going nowhere,
         Am7                     Bm7
There's too much I need to remember,
             C
And there's too much I need to say.

Verse 4: 3:54
           G                        D
All of my life, there have been regrets
        Em              Am7
That I didn't do all I could,
4:06
         G                         D
Playing records upstairs while he watched TV,
   Em                       Am7
I didn't spend the time I should.
4:17
        G                  D
It's a memory I will live with
           G  |      D
All of my life. Huh huh.
