My life       is a series of actors changing places

C              G7               Am                      Em
Except there's no backstage and there's no place for me

 Fmaj7                                                C
It's o-       kay though, the jokes on the television make me laugh

                    G7          Am
Remind me that it's okay not to have a backstage

Em
Or a place to hide


Prechorus:

F
But I've got dinner on my plate, got my paycheck yesterday

Am             Dm7/F#
How great, how cool

F
And I've got places, I've got friends

F                                  Am            Dm7/F#           Fm
I've got Joey, Ross, and Chandler. Then, there's you


Chorus:

    C   Am7  Dm7        G7                C
And now how  we like to say that we're in love

Am7        Dm7       G7               Am
Doesn't it seem like that should be enough

Am/G  D7/F#               
But    the world will roll their eyes

    F             G
But I still think,   well I still think that we're in love

Repeat intro without finger picking


Verse:

F(not barred) Fmaj7               C
Shoes and     jackets, purses and tennis rackets

C              G7                      Am           Em
Make their way as they please in those SUV's to the country club

Fmaj7                             C
I don't play much, but I do enjoy having the ball in my court

    G7                  Am               Em
And what's more, I like playing for love


Prechorus:

F
But I've got arms and you've got legs. Together we've made some mistakes
 
    Am                Dm7/F#
But hey, we're doing well

F
And I've got reason to believe in the power of you and me

   Am         Dm7/F#     Fm
To break this spell


Chorus:

    C   Am7  Dm7        G7                C
And now how  we like to say that we're in love

Am7        Dm7       G7               Am
Doesn't it seem like that should be enough

Am/G  D7/F#               
But    the world will roll their eyes

    F             G
But I still think,  well I still think that we're in love

Repeat intro without finger picking, then with finger picking


Verse:

F(not barred) Fmaj7                 C
One more      question: How is this one big lesson?

C                  G7                  Am                  Em
I don't think that there's a quiz, but if there is, I'll be   outside

Fmaj7                                         C
Playing in the yard, swinging on monkey bars, exercising my right 

        G7               Am               Em
To this recess from this lesson that I've tried


Prechorus:

F
But I've got arms and you've got legs. Together we've made some mistakes
 
    Am               Dm7/F#
But hey, we're doing well

F
And I've got reason to believe in the power of you and me

   Am         Dm7/F#           Fm
To break this spell


Chorus:

    C   Am7  Dm7        G7                C
And now how  we like to say that we're in love

Am7        Dm7       G7               Am
Doesn't it seem like that should be enough

Am/G  D7/F#               
But    the world will roll their eyes

    F             G
But I still think,  well I still think that we're in love
