G Em
Who said the web of life is woven in a dream,
G Em C D
'Cause your life is filled with dreams you can't believe.
G Em
So the only way you live with it is acting every scene,
G Em
And you play the part so well, that you deceive
C D C D
Now and again I find you ain't got a friend
D7
Who knows, I come and I go,
Chorus:
Am D
But it's your life...(Aah)
Am D
It's your life...(Aah)
Am D D7
But it's your life...(Aaaah)
II:
G Em
Though the world is overcrowded you still found an empty place,
G Em
And I know he leaves you helpless and confused.
G Em
And your search for love has often left you staring into space
G Em
Just another broken heart, so what's the use?
C D C D
How many times have I been so hard to find?
D7
You know I come and I go,
Chorus:
Am D
but it's your life...(Aah)
Am D
It's your life (ooh)
Am D D7
'Sait it's your life (Aaaah)
Interlude:
G C
How does it feel when he's not around?
G C G C G C
Can he be real when he can be found nowhere?
III:
G Em
Who lit the flame upon the candle tonight?
G Em
And who let herself be lit so easily?
G Em
And who let it burn until the early morning light
G Em C D C D
And in the early morning gave herself to me?
D7
And so, my love, you know
Final chorus:
Am D
that it's your life...(Aaah)
Am D
It's your life (ooh)
Am D D7
'Sait it's your life (Aaaah)
Am D
it's your life...(Aaah)
Am D
It's your life (ooh)
Am D D7
'Sait it's your life (Aaaah)
