intro: D

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

And I'm wonderin' how you've been
    A                                   G
I cried myself to asleep back on the floor
                  D
Unconscious in denial

CHORUS:
G                               A
Life is just a little part of what the world will do
   Bm                                   E7
To get it's point across it beats you ?til you're black & blue
       G                                        A
And decides just when you're in or when you're out
                                       D
?Cause when you're through you're through
      

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

CHORUS:
G                               A
Life is just a little part of what the world will do
   Bm                                   E7
To get it's point across it beats you ?til you're black & blue
       G                                        A
And decides just when you're in or when you're out
                                       D
?Cause when you're through you're through

Yeah, Yeah.
D
Whoaaaah, Ohhhh.
E
Whoaaaaahhhhhh
G        A      D
Ohhhh, Ohhh, Ohhh.

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


         D
And my friends have asked the question:

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


D7
Hey, yeahhhh - I think that?..
 G                              A
Life is just a little part of what the world will do
 Bm                                         E7
It's brings us to the brink and beats the sh1t right outta you
       G                                        A
And decides just when you're in or when you're out
                                      D
'Cause when you're through you're through


D7
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
 G                                      A
Life is just a little part of what the world will do
       Bm                                  E7
It's brings us to the brink and beats the sh1t right outta you
       G                                        A
And decides just when you're in or when you're out
                               D
When you're through you're through


D
Ayyye, Oh.

I guess I'm through

Mmmmm

When you're through, you're through.
