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"
