intro: D5

D5
I woke up early evening and I knew I was alone
         G5
Did the sun come up or did it rain again, I'll never know
   A5                           G5                         D5
I felt the acid in my stomach rise above my throat as I dialed
                D5
There was a message from my mother
                               G5
From about 7a.m. said I've forgotten what you sound like

And I'm wonderin' how you've been
    A5                                   G5
I cried myself to asleep back on the floor
                  D5
Unconscious in denial

CHORUS:
G5                               A5
Life is just a little part of what the world will do
   B5                                   E5
To get it's point across it beats you ?til you're black & blue
       G5                                        A5
And decides just when you're in or when you're out
                                       D5
?Cause when you're through you're through
      

           D5
There's a cafe just round the corner from the home I call a house
   G5
I sit and play Sudoku til I figure some shit out
    A5                                  G5                             D5
I drink the day's first coffee and I smoke the last cigarette of my life
            D5
And I'm wondering out of all the crazy places that I've been
           G5
Would it ever be as good as sittin' here just with a friend?
            A5                             G5                             D5
Where it's always understood it might be time, to switch the coffee to wine

CHORUS:
G5                               A5
Life is just a little part of what the world will do
   B5                                   E5
To get it's point across it beats you ?til you're black & blue
       G5                                        A5
And decides just when you're in or when you're out
                                       D5
?Cause when you're through you're through

Yeah, Yeah.
D5
Whoaaaah, Ohhhh.
E5
Whoaaaaahhhhhh
G5        A5      D5
Ohhhh, Ohhh, Ohhh.

Oh.
         D5                       
Janis sings to me just like she's sitting by my side
          G5
And I wonder just how many times she sat like me and cried
      A5                              G5                           D5
I've made it past the age of twenty-seven so there's no use in dyin'


         D5
And my friends have asked the question:

"Baby, will you be okay?"
    G5
I wanna tell them yes ?cause I know that's what I should say
          A5                                G5                               D5
But I've got no crystal ball and I can't bring myself to lie and why should I?


D5
Hey, yeahhhh - I think that?..
 G5                              A5
Life is just a little part of what the world will do
 B5                                         E5
It's brings us to the brink and beats the sh1t right outta you
       G5                                        A5
And decides just when you're in or when you're out
                                      D5
'Cause when you're through you're through


D5
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
 G5                                      A5
Life is just a little part of what the world will do
       B5                                  E5
It's brings us to the brink and beats the sh1t right outta you
       G5                                        A5
And decides just when you're in or when you're out
                               D5
When you're through you're through


D5
Ayyye, Oh.

I guess I'm through

Mmmmm

When you're through, you're through.
