[Bb]
[Eb] That's life, [G] that's what all the people [Cm] say
You're riding high in [F] April, shot [D] down in May
[Eb] But I know I'm gonna [Cm] change that too
[Fm] When I'm back [Cm] on top, [Ab] back on top in June
[Eb] I say that's life, [G] and as funny as it may seem
[Cm] Some people get a big old kick out of stomping on a dream
[Eb] Well, I don't let it, [Cm] I don't let it get me down
Cause this old [Ab] world just [Eb] keeps spilling around
I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn, and a king
[Ab] I've been up and down and over and out, and I know [Cm] one thing
[F] Each time I find [Dm] myself lying flat on my face
I [Bb] just pick myself up and get back in the race
Cause [Eb] that's life, [Bb] [Dm] and I can't deny it
[Cm] I thought of [Bbm] quitting baby, [A] but my heart just ain't [F] go about it
[Eb] [G] And if I didn't think it was worth [C] a single try
[Dm] I'd just jump [Ab] on a big [Eb] bird and then [Bb] I'd fly
[Cm] [G]

I've [Bbm] been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn, and a [Cm] king
[Fm] I've been up and down and over and out, and I know one [Ab] thing
[A] Each time I find myself [Cm] lying flat on my face
I [Bb] just pick myself up and get back in the [E] race
Cause that's life, [Eb] [G] and I just can't deny it
[Cm] Many times [Eb] I thought of cutting out, [A] but my heart just ain't go about it
[Bb] And if nothing's shaking [Cm] around, here comes July
I'd just roll myself [Bb] up in a [Bbm] big ball [Eb] and die
[Abm] [Bb] [Eb]
