L.i.f.e.g.o.e.s.o.n. Tabulatur von Noah And The Whale

C                         F
Lisa likes brandy and the way it hits her lips,
        G                           F
She's a rock 'n' roll survivor with pendulum hips,
          C              F
She's got deep brown eyes,
                G        F
That've seen it all.

C                               F
Working at a nightclub that was called The Avenue
    G                                F
The bar men used to call her "Little Lisa, Looney Tunes"
         C   F
She went down, 
             G  F
on almost anyone.


        Dm                       Em 
From the hard time living 'til the Chelsea days,
              F                              G
From when her hair went sweet blonde 'til the day it turned grey

She said;

[chorus]

C           F
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
       G                       F
You've got more than money and sense, my friend
           C             F              G     F
You've got heart, and you go in your own way.
C           F
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
         G                   F
What you don't have now will come back again
           C             F              G     F
You've got heart, and you go in your own way.


     C                                F 
Some people wear their history like a map on their face,
    G                      F
And Joey was an artist just living out of case,
        C        F                 G    F
But his best work, was his letters home.

    C                                F
His standard works of fiction about imaginary success,
    G                             F
The chorus girls in neon were his closest things to friends,
         C      F                    G   F
But to a writer, the truth is no big deal.


        Dm                     Em
From the hard time living to the sleepless nights,
        F                            G
And the black and blue body from the weekend fights

He'd say;


[chorus]


     Am            F              C           G
On my last night on earth, I won't look to the sky
    Am             F       C            G
Just breathe in the air and blink in the light
     Am            F           C          G
On my last night on earth, I'll pay a high price
  Am        F            C            G
To have no regrets and be done with my life

[Chorus]
