A WAY TO SURVIVE
Recorded by: Ray Price
Writer: Johnny Paycheck
[1] I look at your picture, too [2] often
It [5] helps keep your mem'ry a-[1]-live [5]
It's not [1] healthy, they say
To [2] relive yesterday
But for [5] me, It's A WAY TO SUR-[1]-VIVE [1-7]
CHORUS/BRIDGE
I must [4] cling to what's [5] gone
If [1] I'm to go [4] on
I [1] can't face the [5] future, I've [1] tried [5]
Per-[1]-haps for the rest
Looking [2] back isn't best
But for [5] me, It's A WAY TO SUR-[1]-VIVE
When my heart aches, I read all your letters
And the words make our love seem alive
They say I can't last, if I live in the past
But for me, it's A WAY TO SURVIVE
CHORUS
