x[Verse 1]
Dm
One life to live but we're doing it wrong
C G
You see, got my brother down cause it's nothing to me
Dm
Everyone saying that it's wrong to cheat
C G
But there's no other way to get my life on easy street
Dm
Someone else telling you what you're living for
C G
Been knocking you down, now you're looking for more
Dm
The only sound you hear is a closing door
C G
Been looking for peace but they're bringing you war
Dm
Rich man cryin' cause his money's time
C G
And poor man's smilin' cause he knows he ain't blind
Dm
There's a man over there says he's tougher than me
C G
But I got eyes that can see through fantasy
[Chorus]
Dm C G
I think my life is passing me by
Dm C G
I think my life is passing me by
[Verse 2]
Dm
Take it all back cause it don't mean nothing
C G
If you give it away and you're looking for something back
Dm
Wake up every morning when there's nothing there
C G
No reason to die but no reason to care
Dm
Someone else telling you what you're living for
C G
Been knocking you down now you're looking for more
Dm
The only sound you hear is a closing door
C G
Been looking for peace but they're bringing you war
Dm
One life to live but we're doing it wrong
C G
You see, got my brother down cause it's nothing to me
Dm
Rich man cryin' cause his money's time
C G
And poor man's smilin' cause he knows he ain't blind
[Chorus]
Dm C G
I think my life is passing me by
Dm C G
I think my life is passing me by
