"Life In the D"(Benson)
From "Lapalco"(2002)
Intro: Dmaj7 G x2
Dmaj7 G Dmaj7 G
My life in the D is a tragic comedy, a poetic verse
Dmaj7 G Dmaj7
It's voodoo some say,black magic etouffee
G
A dead man's curse
E F#m Am
It's just like the Egyptian tombs
E F#m A
Its Tunnels lead me to empty rooms
G A D Em7 (once)
Skeptics think it's a doctored photo
N.C. A (g-f#)
Of a U.F.O
Dmaj7 G X2 (with "ufo")
You're wasting your breath on life after death
'Cos I'm almost sure
If hell does exist,then the Devil's a scientist
Finding the cure
It's life microscopic sized
Unseen by the naked eye
The answer's encoded with ink
That's invisible
Melodica Solo (Dmaj7 G X4)
When God made the earth and saw his net worth
He posed for a shot
And life in the D is what was handed to me
And that's what I've got
It's all just a hologram
Locked in a vault it's a cryptogram
A lie on the Polygraph test
It's undetectable
It's undetectable....
Although this is obvious if you
know the song,the "it's life.."
and "it's all.." verses
use the E F#m Am etc
chord progression.
