Life Is a Song Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[F][C]

[Verse 1]
You say [C]life is a dream where
we can[G]'t say what we mean
[Am]Maybe just some road[G]side scene
[F]that we're driving past
There's [C]no telling where we'll
be in a [G]day or in a week
[F]And the[C]re's no promise[G]s of
peace [F]or of happiness

[Verse 2]
Well [C]is this why you cling
to [G]every little thing
[Am]And pulverize and de
[G]range all your [F]senses
Maybe [C]life is a song but you're
[G]scared to song [C]along
[G]Until the very end[F]ing
[G]Oh,

[Verse 3]
it's [Am]time to let [G]go of everything
[F]we used to kno[C]w[Am]
Ideas that [G]strengthen who we've [F]been
It's [Am]time to cut [G]ties that won't
[F]ever free our [C]mind[Am]s
From the chains and [G]shackles
that they're [F]in

[Verse 4]
[G]Oh, tell me what good is
[C]saying that you're free
In a [G]dark and storming sea
[Am]You're chained to your histo[G]ry,
you're [F]surely sinking fast
[C]You say that you know that the
[G]good Lord's in control
[C]He's gonna bless and kee[G]p your
tired and [F]oh so restless soul
But at the [C]end of the day when every
[G]price has been paid
[Am]You're gonna rise and sit [G]beside
him on [F]some old seat of gold
And [C]won't you tell me why you live
like [G]you're afraid to [C]die
You'll die like [G]you're afraid to go
[F]

[Verse 5]
[G]Oh, it's [Am]time to let [G]go of everything
[F]we used to kno[C]w[Am]
Ideas that [G]strengthen who we've [F]been
It's [Am]time to cut [G]ties that won't
[F]ever free our [C]minds[Am]
From chains and [G]shackles
that they're [F]in[C]
From the chains and [G]shackles that they're in
[F]

[Bb][D][Gm][D]

[Verse 6]
Well [C]life is a dream 'cause we're
all [G]walking in our [Am]sleep
You could see us [G]stand in lines
like we're [F]dead upon our feet
And we [C]build our house of cards
and then we [G]wait for it to fall
[C]Always forget how str[G]ange
it is just to [F]be alive at all
