Salute A Lot More Livin To Do Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Gordon Lightfoot
CAPO: 4th Fret



[INTRO:] D   G   D   G   D

[VERSE 1:]
                       G  
Listen mister, I won't waste your time 
  D                                     G              D
I hope all the mistakes you made were a lot like mine
                                     G  
Loving girls too much sometimes they made you cry 
D                                        A7
Maybe we've got more living to do with a lot less pain 
                         D
Here let's drink to you


[VERSE 2:]
                                 G              D
These are the words I knew would break the ice
                          G               D
I held my hand out and he shook it twice 
                              G            Em
It seemed to me like I'd been here before
           F#m            G  
Deja vu, familiar voice
               A7sus4         D
And the salute of my choice


[VERSE 3:]
                    G             D
Salute gentlemen of days gone by 
                         G              D
Ladies of leisure and of flashing eye 
                            G               D
May some romantic fool turn on your light 
                                    A7                  D
As for me, I'm in between, all that I can do is dream


[CHORUS:]
                             G     D
You got a lot more living to do 
                      G 
And a lot more loving too
         D
When you make it through the night with no end in sight 
        G                   Em   F#m   G  
And the dawn peeks through
          A7sus4             D
You got a lot more living to do


[INSTRUMENTAL:] D   G   D   G   D


[VERSE 4:]
                     G             D
Salute nightingales upon the tide 
                                   G               D
Brothers of the cloth, tonight who must be tried 
                               G          D
May all of your martinis be forever dry 
                                    A7                  D
As for me. I'm in between, all that I can do is dream


[CHORUS:]   (## fade to end ##)
                             G     D
You got a lot more living to do 
                      G 
And a lot more loving too
         D
When you make it through the night with no end in sight 
        G                   Em   F#m   G  
And the dawn peeks through
          A7sus4             D    G   D
You got a lot more living to do
                      G      D
And a lot more loving too
                             G     D
You got a lot more living to do
                      G      D
And a lot more loving too
                             G     D
You got a lot more living to do
