        I got a scent on you,      I got something here to show,
C#m7b5                           Am7    Am7(type2)
        It's somebody's slice of life,
E7sus4                         D6
        I had it tailor made,      I had it soaken,
           C#m7b5                            Am7           Am7(type2)
Shaken and...     shown around the world! |  /  /  /  /  |  /  /  /  / |

        And of all these things you tell me,       I can't quite believe,
Bbsus2                                      Asus2     F
        You are still there, and I'm still trying...    to be somebody!

        Always on the upkeep,      always trying to reach the rest of us,
D6                                    C#m7b5                 Am7
    We don't have... anything to say, nothing to give, well, life, it blows away,
E7sus4                         G6
        I have another chance,     I may have two lives,
        D6
But my...   both my lives will be... brief lives,
          C#m7b5               Am7
And then,        you all will wonder why!

        I was only sixteen years old, you were only seventeen,

        Life isn't so complicated, but then life isn't 'sposed to be!
