Intro: G Em Am7 D (x2)
G B7
That's life (that's life), that's what all the people say
Em7 A7
You're ridin' high in April, shot down in May
G B7 Em7
But I know I'm gonna change that tune
A7 D13
When I'm back on top, back on top in June
G B7
I said that's life (that's life), and as funny as it may seem
Em7 A7
Some people get their kicks stompin' on a dream
G/D B7 Em
But I don't let it, let it get me down
A7 C/D G C/G G
'Cause this fine old world, it keeps spinnin' around
G7
I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king
C6
I've been up and down and over and out and I know one thing
A7
Each time I find myself flat on my face
D D D D C/D
I pick myself up and get back in the race
That's life (that's life), I tell you I can't deny it
I thought of quittin', baby, but my heart just ain't gonna buy it
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try
I'd jump right on a big bird and then I'd fly
I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up and down and over and out and I know one thing
Each time I find myself layin' flat on my face
D D Eb
I just pick myself up and get back in the race
Ab C7
That's life (that's life), that's life and I can't deny it
Fm Bb7
Many times I thought of cuttin' out but my heart won't buy it
Ab/Eb C7 Fm
But if there's nothin' shakin' come this here July
Bb7 Db/Eb Ab B7 E7 Db/Eb
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball a-and die
doot doot doot doot doot doot
A7b5 Ab7
My .... my!
