Life's a Long Song

[Intro] A  G  A  G

  A                   G            A                G      E4  E
When you're falling awake and you take stock of the new day
  A                       G           A                         G   E4  E
And you hear your voice croak as you choke on what you need to say
C                             G
Well, don't you fret, don't you fear
 D                    E E4
I will give you good cheer
  A            G
Life's a long song
  A            G
Life's a long song
  A            G
Life's a long song
       D                             E  E4
If you wait then your plate I will fill
 A               G             A                  G   E4 E
As the verses unfold and your soul suffers the long day
 A                      G               A
And the twelve o'clock gloom spins the room
                  G      E4 E
You struggle on your way
  C                             G
Well, don't you sigh, don't you cry
          D              E E4
Lick the dust from your eye
  A               G
Life's a long song
  A               G
Life's a long song
  A               G
Life's a long song
    D                            E E4
We will meet in the sweet light of dawn
   A                 G                A                    G  E E4
As the Baker Street train spills your pain all over your new dress
   A               G        A                      G   E E4
And the symphony sounds underground put you under duress
  C                          G               D           E E4
Well don't you squeal as the heel grinds you under the wheel
  A             G
Life's a long song
  A             G
Life's a long song
  A             G
Life's a long song
        D                       E E4 E  A
But the tune ends too soon for us all
               A

               G

               D

               E

               E4
