A7
[Verse 1]
D7 That's life,G that's what allB7 the people say
You're Emridin' high in April,A7 shot down in May
But I Gknow I'm gonna B7change that tuEmne
When I'm A7back on top, back on top in D7June
[Verse 2]
That's life,G and as B7funny as it may seem
EmSome people get their kicks A7stompin' on a dream
But GI don't let 'em B7get me down Em
'Cause this A7fine old world, it keeps me spinnin' D7around
[Chorus]
I've been a Gpuppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, aG7 pawn, and a king
I've been Cup and down and over and out and Cmaj7I know one thing
Each A7time I find myself flat on my face
I just D7/Apick myself up and get back in the race
[Verse 3]
That's life,G oh, and you know B7I can't deny it
Many Emtimes I thought of quittin' baby, but my A7heart won't buy it
And if GI didn't think it B7was worth one single Emtry
Well, I'd A7hop up on a big bird and then I'd D7fly
[Chorus]
I've been a Gpuppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, aG7 pawn, and a king
I've been Cup and down and over and out and Cmaj7I know one thing
Each A7time I find myself flat on my face
I just D7/Apick myself up and get D#7back in the race
