Story of my liiiiiiiiife


[VERSE 1]
     G             C                D
Well high school seemed like such a blur.
  G                C           D
I didn't have much interest in sports or school elections
    G          C           D
and in class I dreamed all day
                           G     C    D
'bout a rock 'n' roll weekend. (ooh  ooh)


[VERSE 2]
        G           C            D
And the girl in the front of the room
   G            C              D
So close yet so far y'know she never seemed to notice
          G     C         D
That this silly schoolboy crush
               G      C    D
Wasn't just pretend. (ooh  ooh)


[CHORUS]
G         C     D
Life goes by so fast.
G              C                    D
You only wanna do what you think is right.
G          C            D
Close your eyes and it's past.
            G    C    D

[VERSE 3]
      G            C           D
And I went down my old neighborhood.
    G              C               D
The faces have all changed, no one there left to talk to
        G           C          D
And the pool hall I loved as a kid
                  G     C    D
Is now a Seven Eleven. (ooh  ooh)

[VERSE 4]
      G                C          D
And I went downtown to look for a job.
  G      C              D
I had no training, no experience to speak of
      G             C           D
And I looked at the holes in my jeans
                      G      C    D
And turned and headed back. (ooh  ooh)


[CHORUS]
G         C     D
Life goes by so fast.
G              C                    D
You only wanna do what you think is right.
G          C            D.
Close your eyes and it's past.

[GUITAR SOLO]


[VERSE 5]
         G                   C          D
Yeah and good times come and good times go.
  G             C                D
I only wish the good times would last a little longer.
    G                 C             D    
And I think about the good times we had
                    G     C   D
And why they had to end. (ooh ooh)


[VERSE 6]
     G          C          D
So I sit at the edge of my bed.
  G           C         D
I strum my guitar and I sing an outlaw love song
G              C                 D
Thinkin' 'bout what you're doin' now
                       G      C   D
And when you're comin' back. (ooh ooh)


[CHORUS]
G         C     D
Life goes by so fast.
G              C                    D
You only wanna do what you think is right.
G          C            D
Close your eyes and it's past.
