  			(D7)    G                  B7 
That's life - that's what all the people say; 
 
        Em7                  A7 
You're ridin' high in April, shot down in May. 
 
        G            Cmaj7  Bm7/5- Em7 
But I know I'm gonna change that tune 
 
          A9     Am7      D9   D+ 
When I'm back on top in June. 
 
 
        G   B7 
That's life - funny as it seems, 
 
Em7                         A7 
Some people get their kicks steppin' on a dream; 
 
    G             F#m7 F7  Em 
But I don't let it get me down, 
 
        A9                   D9     G 
'Cause this old world keeps goin' round. 
 
 
(Bridge:) 
 
             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've learned one thing: 
 
A7 
Each time I find myself flat on my face, 
 
  D7                     D9           D+ 
I pick myself up and get back in the race. 
 
 
        G    B7 
That's life - I can't deny it, 
 
Em7                            A7 
I thought of quittin', but my heart just won't buy it. 
 
G             G/F#        Bm7/5-    E       
If I  didn't think it was worth a try 
 
     A-9    A7          D+  D7        G     G/F#    Em   Edim    D7 
I'd roll myself up in a big ball and die. 
 
 
(Last Time) 
 
 
    A-9         A  A7   D+  D7        G  Am7 alt  Gdim  A7  G6 
I'd roll myself up in a big ball and die.
