AFTER ALL (I LIVE MY LIFE)      -       Frankie Miller
From the film RUM DIARY

Capo 4th fret
G: 320003       C/G*: 3X2103   C/G: 332010    D: XX0232

This uses 2 versions of the C/G cord so I have shown the less common version with a*

If you use your 4th finger to hit the G base note on the G cord then you can drop your 
index and 2nd finger to get the C/G* cord

Sounds good in the chorus if you walk down from G to D

Into    G       C/G*   x2

G                             C/G*
    Always thinking about the days gone by
G                                   C/G*
    when my childhood eyes saw only hills & sky
        C/G                              D
But I?m not the simple minded boy I used to be
      C/G                             D
Now I learned to picture life in it?s reality
        G                         C/G
I found after all the searching   life was only what I made it
G                               D
After all the searching for new games to play
        G                        C/G
I found after all the searching  life was only what I made it
G                                 D
After all the searching for a new game to play
               G
I live my life away

Bridge  C/G*    D  C/G*
 
G                       C/G*
     Saw a dragon shake cathedral walls
G                                      C/G*
      While a steeple bell rang out in anguish calls
      C/G                              D
And I turned my eyes to see a bird fly over head
      C/G                                   D
And I dreamt it?s wings of freedom could be mine instead
        G                       C/G
I found after all the dreaming  life was only what I made it
G                              D
After all the dreaming for new games to play
       G                       C/G
Oh I   after all the dreaming  life was only what I made it
G                             D
After all the dreaming of new games to play
             G
I drink my life away

Bridge 2        C/G*  C/G      D
                C/G     D

     G                          C/G
Even after all the searching  life was only what I made it
G                                 D
After all the searching for a new game to play
G                        C/G
After all the searching  life was only how you take it
G                                 D
After all the searching for a new game to play
           G            C/G*
I live my life away

G       C/G*
Live it all
G       C/G*
Live it all
G               C/G*
Live that life away

End on G
