James Brown - That's Life
Tabbed by Garth B.

I want you to know, it aint no sin
That I'm right here where I started from
To do it all over again

	       C    E7
But that's life,      that's what all the people say
Am                          D7
You're ridin' high in April, shot down in May
C           E7           Am
But I guess I, I gotta change that tune
D7                      G
When I'm back on top, on top in June


C 	      E7
That's life,     as funny as it may seem
Am                          D7
Some people get their kicks stompin' on a dream
C            E7         Am
But I never, I never let it get me down
D7                G                                 C  C   F  C
As sure as this big old world, keeps spinnin' 'round

C                                         C7
I've been a puppet, pauper, pirate, poet, pawn and a king
F                                        F7
I've been up and down and over and out but I know one thing
D7
Every time I feel that I'm gonna fall flat on my face
G                   G          G          G
I just pick myself up and get back in the race

C           E7
That's life, there's no need to deny it
Am                           D7
I thought of cuttin out once, but this old heart just ain't gonna buy it
C             E7                  Am
But I know    that it would worth one single sign
D7                          G              C   F  C
I'd get up on that big bird and then I'd fly

C                                         C7
I've been a puppet, pauper, pirate, poet, pawn and a king
           F                           F7
I've been up and down and over and out and I know one thing
D7
Every time I feel that I'm gonna fall flat on my face
G              G          Ab
I pick myself up and get back in the race

C#            F7
That's life, and I can't deny it
A#m                                  D#7
Many times I thought of cuttin' out but my heart won't buy it
C#                    F7                      A#m
But if there's nothin' shakin' come this here July
              
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball, etc...
