# Date: 1/15/98 From: Keith B. Brown <kbbrown@ou.edu> Subject: "How Do I Live " by LeAnn Rimes Created by: Keith B. Brown <kbbrown@ou.edu> Song: "How Do I Live" Written by: Diane Warren As sung by: LeAnn Rimes Some of the poly chords may be difficult to play on guitar, but I believe they are the best representation of what is occuring in the song apart from a bass player. There also may be a few differences between Trisha Yearwood's version and LeAnn's however, I believe both songs are nearly the same. "HOW DO I LIVE" **INTRO** D A G F#m7 D A G A Bsus **VERSE 1**
