If your life was on video tape
F C
wouldn't everything be all right
F C Am
When your head hurts the morning after
C G C
you could roll it back to late last night
F C
You could replay all the good parts
C Am
and cut out what you don't like
F C Am
Oh wouldn't you be in good shape
C G C
if your life was on video tape
If everybody had ESP
everything would be ok
We could see trouble coming
and we could step out of the way
When the grim reaper comes to call
we could arrange to be out of town
It would be the great escape
and you could put it on video tape
I don't have a video recorder
I don't have a crystal ball
and when I'm not with my baby
then I don't have very much at all
I can't predict the future
and I sure can't change the past
But I know it will all make sense
if you love me in the present tense
If your life was on video tape
wouldn't everything be all right
When your head hurts the morning after
you could roll it back to late last night
You could replay all the good parts
and cut out what you don't like
Oh wouldn't you be in good shape
if your life was on video tape
If your life was on video tape
