A Way to Survive

by Ray Price

C                          D7

I look at your picture too often

  G7                      C    G7

It helps keep your memory alive

         C                   D7

It's not healthy they say to recall yesterday

        G7                 C

But for me it's the way to survive

       F               G7   C             F

I must cling to what's gone if I've to go on

  C              G7          C    G7

I can't face the future I've tried

    C                       D7

Perhaps for the rest looking back isn't best

        G7                 C

But for me it's the way to survive

D7

When my heart aches I read all your letters

  G7                      C     G7

It helps keep your memory alive

     C                     D7

They say I can't last if I live in the past

       G7                  C

But for me it's the way to survive

       F               G7   C             F

I must cling to what's gone if I've to go on

  C              G7          C    G7

I can't face the future I've tried

    C                       D7

Perhaps for the rest looking back isn't best

        G7                 C

But for me it's the way to survive
