It was a comment by a YouTuber that prompted me to seek out the chords to this obscure backing track, which seems to be all there is of it:
"Let's Live Until We Die" has preoccupied me for weeks. It was only a couple of days ago that I put on a spurt and got the bulk of it done. Once again, I've had to write it all out by hand in my dreadful scrawl, for which my apologies. One day I'll be forced to buy a new pc (i.e., when its predecessor blows up) and then I can do the job properly. The bass line probably sounds better an octave lower, as indicated:
Actually the YouTuber in question asked for the guitar chords, so after a little research, here is my attempt as a non-guitar player. All notes after a forward slash are the root note of the chord in question. If anyone can improve on this, please don't hesitate to chime in:
