Life Gets Away

(intro) G C D G Em C D G

                   F                C                     G                 C
    We're tied to our memories they won't let us stray,
                Em             C                   Am               D
    we're not gonna lose ones we made yesterday.
               F              C                      G                  C
    We look to our future and we make all our plans,
       Em             C              Am           D
    as if we control what is out of our hands.

         G                     C                D               G
The world keeps on turning I'm learning to see,
                         C                D             G
right where I am is where I have to be.
                                 C              D                    G
You can't count the pages, all ages hear the call,
                   Em                 C                   D                G
no matter how hard we try life gets away from us all.

             F                C              G               C
    We start getting older the moment we live,
           Em               C                    Am               D
    look over your shoulder there's hindsight to give.
                  F                    C                    G                 C
    Come good days and bad days the sun's gonna rise,
         Em               C                    Am                D
    so why look beyond what's in front of your eyes?
                 Em                 C                    D               G
no matter how hard we try life gets away from us all.
