| each day like it was our last for who | G |
| really knows tomorrow might be | D |

| your unbridled tongue Countless souls have | L |
| died from careless words and actions not | M |
| birthed from thought | N |

| These are but a few lessons to live by | O |
| Many more will come to you in time Now go | P |
| live your life the best you can I hope | Q |
| everything works out real fine | R |
