But that's life, that's what all the people say
Am D7
You're ridin' high in April, shot down in May
C E7 Am
But I guess I, I gotta change that tune
D7 G
When I'm back on top, on top in June
C E7
That's life, as funny as it may seem
Am D7
Some people get their kicks stompin' on a dream
C E7 Am
But I never, I never let it get me down
D7 G C C F C
As sure as this big old world, keeps spinnin' 'round
C C7
I've been a puppet, pauper, pirate, poet, pawn and a king
F F7
I've been up and down and over and out but I know one thing
D7
Every time I feel that I'm gonna fall flat on my face
G G G G
I just pick myself up and get back in the race
C E7
That's life, there's no need to deny it
Am D7
I thought of cuttin out once, but this old heart just ain't gonna buy it
C E7 Am
But I know that it would worth one single sign
D7 G C F C
I'd get up on that big bird and then I'd fly
C C7
I've been a puppet, pauper, pirate, poet, pawn and a king
F F7
I've been up and down and over and out and I know one thing
D7
Every time I feel that I'm gonna fall flat on my face
G G Ab
I pick myself up and get back in the race
C# F7
That's life, and I can't deny it
A#m D#7
Many times I thought of cuttin' out but my heart won't buy it
C# F7 A#m
But if there's nothin' shakin' come this here July
