Life Goes On
(Nicky Patterson 2005)


V1:
Ab                   E
He sits there in the High Street
      C#                    Ab
The sign says “Please Feed Me”
       Ab                   E
He’s drunk again with opinions
        C#               Ab
And he aims one right at me
Ab
But I decline…
     E C#2    Ab
And life goes on

V2:
She’s locked herself in the bathroom 
With the hammer in her hand
She’s black and blue with bruises
But he’ll get a second chance
He’s a lucky man…
And life goes on

REFRAIN1: E|Eb|Ab x2

V3:
He’s been in the gang since turning 10
And he’s fought like all the rest
But now they’ve got a hold of him
And they’ve stuck it in his chest
It doesn’t make the news…
And life goes on

V4:
She’s on her own with three young kids
And she struggles to get by
The rent is 3 months overdue 
And she’ll be on the street tonight
But, as they say…
Life goes on

REFRAIN2: C#2|B|Ab x2
REFRAIN1: E|Eb|Ab x2
