So Much To Do
©2005 Garrett Clevenger

C Em Am F G              
G F Em Dm C              

Chorus:
C Em Am F G               There’s so much to do before I’m gone
G F Em Dm C               and just a memory for everyone.
C  Em  Am  Am  G  F   I wanna do it all, don’t wanna be forgot.
F  Em Dm G C              That’s why I’ll be here for a while.

C G C F G                     I wanna be a pilot in a plane
C G C F G                     and soar like a bird above the terrain.
C   Em       F                  I won’t be tied down when my feet are off the ground.
F  Em Dm G C              But in the sky I won’t always remain.

C G C F G                     I wanna be diving in the sea
C G C F G                     swimming with the fish and feeling free.
C   Em       F                  Coral reefs alive make me realize
F  Em Dm G C              I’m obliged to survive on land.

{chorus}

Bridge:
Am  F  C     How can people be board or
Em  G  C    choose to take their own life?
Am  F  C     I propose that’s not for me to answer.
Em  G  C    I suppose I’ll never know their strife.
Am  F  C     All I know is I’m happy I’m here.
Em  G  C    I’m glad just to sing a simple tune, like this:
Am  F  C     If you’ve gotten love from family and friends,
Em  G  C    I hope you’ll help them through their gloominess.

C G C F G                     I wanna be a doctor for the sick
C G C F G                     and heal all their wounds very quick.
C   Em       F                  Cause if they are like me, they wanna be healthy.
F  Em Dm G C              Perhaps this song will do the trick.

C G C F G                     I wanna be a father to my child
C G C F G                     and give my dear little one a smile
C   Em       F                  and watch them grow and learn and sing with me, I yearn
F  Em Dm G C              to laugh and give them love all the while.

{chorus}

C Em Am F G               There’s so much to do before we’re gone
