Intro: D5

D5     F#5    B5         G5            D5      A5      F#5
   Look at me,   I'm the one who got away, the one who could've shone
G5                            D5              A5             G5
   I tried to do my best, but  I guess your best don't last for long
G5  G5  G5

D5     F#5   B5          G5                D5     A5             F#5
   Look at me,  standing with my tattered pride of toothless little lions
G5                              D5            A5                    G5  G5  A5
   We try to make a difference,  do something no-one else had tried

           B5     G5               D5   A5            G5
But if you see me walking and you're wondering   why
     F#5                       B5
Well it's just the business of life
          B5          G5  G5  A5                       D5  A5
If you're not getting lucky,         you're just getting by
B5  G5  A5  A5  A5

D5     F#5   B5       G5             D5       A5          F#5
   Look at me,  is it written on my face, the luxuries I've known?
G5                          D5               A5                G5     G5  A5
   Am I a foreign presence,  some place that used to be my home?

           B5    G5               D5 A5        G5
So if you see me walking, just a regular       guy
     F#5                       B5
Well it's just the business of life
          B5          G5  G5  A5                      D5  A5
If you're not getting lucky,         you're just getting by

             G5            C5                     B5
And in that weightlessness    that comes with good luck
F#5                   E5           E5                     E5
    The one thing you don't expect   is feeling the drop

D5     F#5   B5        G5            D5      A5           F#5
   Look at me, I'm the one who got away, and then came crawling back
G5                          D5         A5               G5     G5  A5
   I try to do my best, but  I guess I never had the knack

          B5     G5               D5   A5             G5
So if you see me walking and you're wondering   why
     F#5                       B5
Well it's just the business of life
         B5           G5  G5  A5                          G5  G5  A5
If you're not getting lucky,         if you're not getting lucky
          D5  A5       B5          G5            A5  A5
You're just getting by,                 you're just getting by
        A5    D5  A5  B5
Just getting by
G5              A5  A5  A5
Just getting by.
