This Is My Life Chords by Phil Vassar

[Bm] _ _ _ _ [A] _ [G] _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ [Bm] _ _ _ _ I'm going to sing a song called, Fat [G] Cats.
Fat cats just getting [D] fatter,
lining their [A] pockets, what does [Bm] it matter?
All I want [G] is an honest wage,
[D] a piece of ground [A] where my kids [Bm] are safe.
80 [G] bucks to fill my truck,
[D] old man telling [A] me time's a tug.
[Bm] Sticking it [G] to the middle class, [D] well,
they can kiss [A] my price of gas,
it's time to speak my [D] mind.
[A] Hey, _ [Bm] yeah, [G] this is [A] my [D] life.
_ [A] Whoa, [Bm] _ [G] this is [A] my [D] life.
[A] Hey, _ [Bm] yeah, [G] this is [D] my life.
[A] _ [Bm] Yeah, [G] and [A] I want [G] it back.
I'm a father, Republican or [D] Democrat,
well, I don't [A] give a damn about [Bm] that.
I want a [G] chance to do my [D] job,
pledge [A] allegiance to my [Bm] God.
Talking [G] heads trying to buy my [D] vote,
I'm just [A] trying to pay my note.
[Bm] I'm a husband, [G] trying to be a [D] father,
raise my [A] son and raise my daughter.
Can you hear [D] me?
_ [A] _ [Bm] Hey, yeah, [G] this is [A] my [D] life.
[A] Whoa, [Bm] _ [D] this is my life.
[A] Hey, _ [Bm] yeah, [G] this is [A] my [D] life.
[A] _ [Bm] Whoa, yeah, [G] and [A] I want [Bm] it back.
_ _ [G] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [G] Well, [A] I'm just standing [G] on the edge of [A] the brink.
[G] I will not go quietly.
I'll tell you [A] what I [F#] think, [Bm] yeah.
It's [G] time to speak my [D] peace.
Squeaky [A] wheel always gets the [Bm] grease.
One [G] single voice don't [D] matter,
but everybody's screaming [A] up the [Bm] ladder,
gonna get the [G] attention of the man on [D] top.
Make his [A] ladder shake and [Bm] rock,
and it might just [G] come a-tumbling [D] down.
Spread [A] all that wealth around,
that's what I'm [G] talking [D] about.
_ [A]
Hey, [Bm] yeah, [G] this is [D] my life.

[Bm] _ _ _ [G] _ [Bm] This is my [G]
[Bm] life.
