This Is The Life - Amy Macdonald

TABBED BY:    NintEndO


This is the tab of Amy's 2007 debut album. I've tabbed the acoustic guitar parts
played by Amy and I've included in each song the basic strumming pattern. I would
recommend that you listen to the song before trying the pattern. Also I've left a
Chord Summary below for those who don't want to have to scroll through the whole
tab. Enjoy playing as its a great album to strum along to.

[Verse 1]

D
So called Mr Rock And Roll is dancing on his own again
Talking on his phone again to someone who tells him
          G                                                         D*
That his balance is low, he's got no where to go, he's on his own again

D
Rock chick of the century is acting like she used to be
Dancing like there's no one there before she never seemed to care
      G                                               D*
Now she wouldn't dare, it's so rock and roll to be alone


[Chorus]

A                                         Em
And they'll meet one day far away and say, I wish I was something more
A                                         Em
And they'll meet one day far away and say, I wish I knew you
A                         D*
I wish I knew you before


[Verse 2]

D
Mrs Black and White she's never seen a shade of grey
Always something on her mind every single day
               G                                         D*
But now she's lost her way and where does she go from here

D
Mr Multicultural sees all that one can see
He's living proof of someone very different to me
             G                               D*
But now he wants to be free free so he can see


[Chorus]

A                                         Em
And they'll meet one day far away and say, I wish I was something more
A                                         Em
And they'll meet one day far away and say, I wish I knew you
A                         D*
I wish I knew you before


[Verse 3]

          Em                 A                     G                     D
He'll say, I wish I knew you, I wish I met you when time was still on my side
          Em                  A                    G                A     A7
She'll say, I wish I knew you, I wish I loved you before I was his bride

D
And so they must depart too many more are broken hearts
But I've seen that all before in TV, books and film and more
               G                         D*
And there's a happy ending every single day


[Chorus]

A                                         Em
And they'll meet one day far away and say, I wish I was something more
A                                         Em
And they'll meet one day far away and say, I wish I knew you
A                         D*  D
I wish I knew you before


2. This Is the Life


Note: Amy normally plays the 4 chords this way without a capo

C#m: x46654
A:   x02220
E:   022100
G#m: 466444

but using a capo is so much easier.


A good arrangement with two guitars would be with one playing the non-capo version
and the other playing the capo version and the riff whenever it comes up

[Instrumental]

Am  F  C  Em


[Verse 1]

       Am                    F
Oh the wind whistles down the cold dark street tonight
         C                      Em
And the people they were dancing to the music vibe
        Am
And the boys chase the girls with the curls in their hair
           F
While the shocked too many just sit way over there
         C                                           Em
And the songs they get louder each one better than before


[Chorus]

                        Am
And you're singing the songs thinking this is the life
                        F
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
                    C                                           Em
where you gonna go, where you gonna go, where you gonna sleep tonight?
                        Am
And you're singing the songs thinking this is the life
                        F
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
                    C                                           Em
where you gonna go, where you gonna go, where you gonna sleep tonight?

Where you gonna sleep tonight


[Instrumental]

Am  F  C  Em


[Post-chorus riff]

(repeat pattern throughout)


[Verse 2]

Am F C Em
So you’re heading down the road in your taxi for four
And you’re waiting outside Jimmy’s front door
But nobody’s in and nobody’s home till four
So you’re sitting there with nothing to do
Talking about Robert Ragger and his motley crew
And where you gonna go, and where you gonna sleep tonight?


[Chorus]

And you're singing the songs thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size 
Oh where you gonna go, where you gonna go, where you gonna sleep tonight? 
And you're singing the songs thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size 
Where you gonna go, where you gonna go, where you gonna sleep tonight? 
Where you gonna sleep tonight 


[Post-chorus riff]

[Bridge riff]


[Chorus]

And you're singing the songs thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size 
Oh where you gonna go, where you gonna go, where you gonna sleep tonight? 
And you're singing the songs thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size 
Where you gonna go, where you gonna go, where you gonna sleep tonight? 
Where you gonna sleep tonight?

Am                   C
A poetic genius it's something I don't see
F                      E
Why would a genius be tripping on me?
          Am                      C
And he's looking at me now but what he can't see
            F                               E
Is that I'm looking through his eyes so many lies behind his eyes
             Am                                 C
And tell me stories from your past and sing me songs you wrote before
             F                                     E                      E7
I tell you this my poison prince, you'll soon be knockin' on heavens door


[Chorus]

              Am                   C
Some kind of poison prince with your eyes in a daze
              F                E
Some kind of poison prince your life is like a maze
         Am                  C
And what we all want and what we all crave
     F                       E
Is an upbeat song so we can dance the night away


[Instrumental]

Am  C  F  E

(repeat pattern throughout)


[Verse 2]

Am C F E
Oh who said life was easy, who said life was fair?
Who said nobody gived a damn and nobody even care?
The way you're acting now like you left that all behind
You've given up, you've given in, another sucker of that slime


[Chorus] (x2)

Some kind of poison prince with your eyes in a daze
Some kind of poison prince your life is like a maze
And what we all want and what we all crave
Is an upbeat song so we can dance the night away

Maybe if you were some spearheaded god I would listen to what you have to say
        C                                          E            E7

            Am                                     F
But you're not yet you don't know a thing about the youth of today
C                               E                    E7
Stating your opinion making it ring in my head all day


[Pre-Chorus]

            Am
And you say, my children weren't the same
                                    F
My children's children they're the ones to blame
            C
And you say, in my day we were better behaved

But it's not your day no more


[Chorus]

   Am
And we are the youth of today, change your hair in every way

And we are the youth of today, don't care what you have to say at all

(repeat pattern throughout)


[Verse 2]

Am F C E
And maybe if you had a true point of view I would listen to you
But it's just your one sided feelings they keep getting in my way
And you don't know a single thing about the youth of today
Stating your opinion making it ring in my head all day


[Pre-Chorus]

And you say, my children weren't the same
My children's children they're the ones to blame
And you say, in my day we were better behaved
But it's not your day no more


[Chorus]

And we are the youth of today, change your hair in every way
And we are the youth of today, we'll say what we wanna say
And we are the youth of today, don't care what you have to say at all


[Pre-Chorus]

And you say, my children weren't the same
My children's children they're the ones to blame
And you say, in my day we were better behaved
But it's not your day no more


[Chorus]

And we are the youth of today, change your hair in every way
And we are the youth of today, we'll say what we wanna say
And we are the youth of today, don't care what you have to say at all

Singing songs about dreams about hopes about schemes

         G
Oh the lights outside they're as bright as the sun
              C
They're much brighter than anyone
       G
Oh the girls in the queue yes they're waiting for you
              C
Well they're waiting for their song to be sung


[Pre-Chorus]

              Am                              C
And when the night turns to day and all the people go away
              G                      D
It's not the same, tell me who's to blame?
              Am                           C
And when the stars shine so bright on the cold December night
            G              D
I wish that I was on the stage


[Chorus]

    Am                                        D
Oh won't you take a ride with me through the Barrowland history
       G                     C
And I'll sing you a song or two
Am                                  D
People they may stop and stare but baby I just don't care
  G               C
It's only me and you
          Am                                    D
And the drink and dance and drugs you know it's all part of the show we go to
G                    C
Maybe I should tell you
       Am                                 D
That people they may stop and stare but baby I just don't care
   C             D         G
Tonight, it's only me and you


[Verse 2]

     G
Oh nothing beats the feeling of the high Barrowland ceiling
          C
When the band start to play
           G
Won't you buy me a drink and I'll tell her what I think
        C
If she gets in my way


[Pre-Chorus]

              Am                             C
And when the night turns to day and all the people go away

It's not the same, tell me who's to blame?

And when the stars shine so bright on the cold December night

Tonight, it's only me and you


[Pre-Chorus]

               Am                         D
And when the night turns to day and the lights they fade away
             G                   C
I wish that love and life would pass me by
              Am                                 D
And when the band stops a song because there's something going on
               G                  C
Well there is magic in the air I swear
       Am                     D
And I wish that I saw Bowie, playing on that stage
    Am                           D                   D7
I wish that I saw something, to make me come of age

[Verse 1]

                           C
Oh here’s a story about a boy named Jay
                           Am
Nothing he did would ever get in my way
                     F                 C
But there’s still a long long way to go
                         C
I’ve only ever seen his face on film
                          Am
I’ve only ever heard the lines he’d say
       F                         C
But still they won’t get in my way


[Chorus]

                             F
I’m always told to be the dreaming kind
                               C
Wake up one morning and your dreams are alive
                Dm
Never let them bring me down
                Em
Never let them tear me down
                                F
I always thought that I would follow you
                      C
Every place and everything you do
                    Dm
But I’m happy to be by myself
             Em
I don’t need no-one else

He’s never ever seen my face before
                              Am
I’m trying hard cause this I can’t ignore
                     F                 C
But there’s still a long long way to go


[Chorus]

                             F
I’m always told to be the dreaming kind

All my dreams are built around your face and this place 
Am                  F             C                G

won't you dance for me cause I just don't care
What's going on today, I think there's something more, something more

And I'm gone with the wind like they were before
But I'm believing myself I think there's something more
There must be something more, I think there's something more, something more


[Chorus]

But still the footballer's wife tells her troubles and strife
I just don't care in the end, who is she to pretend
That she's one of them, I don't think so
And the girl from that show, yes the one we all know
She thinks she's some kind of star, yes you know who you are
I don't think so, I don't think so


[Verse 3]

Oh I don't believe in the telling of your stories
Throughout your life, there's just something unappealing
It don't catch my eye, it don't catch my eye

Oh I don't believe in the selling of your glories
Before you leave this life, there's so much more to see
I don't believe this is how the world should be


[Chorus]

But still the footballer's wife tells her troubles and strife
I just don't care in the end, who is she to pretend
That she's one of them, I don't think so
And the girl from that show, yes the one we all know
She thinks she's some kind of star, yes you know who you are
I don't think so, I don't think so


[Outro]

The footballer's wife tells her troubles and strife
I just don't care in the end, who is she to pretend
That she's one of them?

        G        C            G
Oh the light is fading all the time
          G                C              G
And this life I'm in, it seems to pass me by
         C                          G
But I'll still remember which way to go
            D                    G
I'm on the road, the road to home


[Outro]

    G C        G
Now I  must say goodbye
              G    C         G
Keep telling myself now don't you cry
       C                G
But I'm here where I belong
       D                        G
I'll see you soon, it won't be long
       D                        G
I'll see you soon, it won't be long
       D
I'll see you soon
             G  C  G  C  G  C  G
It won't be long

  It's a cover of Dougie MacLean's Scottish folk ballad

[Verse 1]

D              A                  D                  G
I don't know if you can see the changes that have come over me
       D                 A                    D               G
In these last few days I've been afraid that I might drift away
            D                       A
So I've been telling old stories and singing songs
       D                G
That make me think about where I came from
   D                 A               D         G
And that's the reason why I feel so far away today


[Verse 2]

     D                   A                    D                     G
And let me tell you that I love you, that I think about you all the time
G                  D                      A     D
Caledonia's been calling me and now I'm going home
    D                    A                      D                        G
And if I should become a stranger you know that it would make me more than sad
G                 A               D        Dsus4
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had
G                 A               D
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had
