xLife Goes On
(Nicky Patterson 2005)
V1:
G# E
He sits there in the High Street
C# G#
The sign says “Please Feed Me”
G# E
He’s drunk again with opinions
C# G#
And he aims one right at me
G#
But I decline…
E C#2 G#
And life goes on
V2:
She’s locked herself in the bathroom
With the hammer in her hand
She’s black and blue with bruises
But he’ll get a second chance
He’s a lucky man…
And life goes on
REFRAIN1: E|Eb|G# x2
V3:
He’s been in the gang since turning 10
And he’s fought like all the rest
But now they’ve got a hold of him
And they’ve stuck it in his chest
It doesn’t make the news…
And life goes on
V4:
She’s on her own with three young kids
And she struggles to get by
The rent is 3 months overdue
And she’ll be on the street tonight
But, as they say…
Life goes on
REFRAIN2: C#2|B|G# x2
REFRAIN1: E|Eb|G# x2
