Life's for the Living - Passenger
capo 6
Intro:
Am 4 F2 C2 G4 C2 G2 ( number of strums)
Am 4 F2 C2 G8
Verse 1:
( the number of strums stay the same)
AmWell grey clouds wrapped round the Ftown like Celastic
GCars stood like toys made of CTaiwanese Gplastic
AmThe boy laughed at the spastic Fdancing Cround in Gthe rain
AmWhile launderettes cleaned clothes, Fhigh heals Crubbed toes
GPuddles splashed huddles of Cbus stop Gcrows
AmDressed in their suits and their bootFs well they all look the saGme
F (4) G (4) C (4)
I took myself down to the cafe to find all the boys lost in books
Am (2) G (2)
And crackling vinyl
F G C Am (4)
And carved out a poem above the urinal that read
FDon't you cry for the lost
GSmile for the living
CGet what you need and Amgive what you'r Ggiven
FLife's for the living so live it
G(1)Or you're better of dead
Am,F,C,G,C,G
Am,F,C,G
AmWhile the evening pulled the moon Fout of it's packet
GStars shone like buttons on Can old man's Gjacket
AmWe needed a nail but we tackeFd it 'til it fell off the Gwall
AmWhile pigeon's pecked trains, Fsparks flew like planes
GThe rain showed the rainbows in thCe oil sGtains
AmAnd we all had new i Phones butF no one had no one to caGll
FAnd I stumbled down to the Gstomach of the town
CWhere the widow takes memories to Amslowly Gdrown
FWith a hand to the sky and a Gmist in her eye she Csaid Am
FDon't you cry for the lost
GSmile for the living
CGet what you need and Amgive what you'r Ggiven
FLife's for the living so live it
GOr you're better of dead
Am,F,G,C,G
Am,F,G
AMWell I'm sick of this town, Fthis blind man's forage
GThey take your dreams down and Cstick them in sGtorage
AmYou can have them back son wheFn you've paid off your mortgage and lGoans
AmOh hell with this place, FI'll go it my own way
GI'll stick out my thumb and Ctrudge down the Ghighway
AmSomeday someone musFt be going my wayG home
FTill then I'll make my bed Gfrom a disused car
CWith a mattress of leaves and Ama blanket of stGars
FAnd I'll stitch the words into my heart Gwith a needle and Cthread Am
FDon't you cry for the lost
GSmile for the living
CGet what you need and Amgive what you'r Ggiven
FYou know life's for the living so live it
GOr you're better of dead
C Am
(Single strums)
FDon't you cry for the lost
GSmile for the living
CGet what you need and Amgive what you'r Ggiven
FLife's for the living so Glive it
Or you're better of dead
