: This is the Life

(CAPO 4)

Intro: Am F C Em 

1. Am 
Oh the wind whistles down

F 
The cold dark street tonight 

And the C 
people they were dancing to the 
Em 
music vibe 


And the boAm 
ys chase the girls with the curls in their hair 

F 
While the shy tormented youth sit way over there 

And the soC 
ngs they get louder, each one better than be
Em 
fore 


Chorus: And you're singing the Am 
songs, thinking this is the life 

And you wake up in the F 
morning and you're head feels twice the size 

Where you gonna go? C 
Where you gonna go? 

Where you gonna sleep toEm 
night? 


2. So you're heading down the road in your taxi for four 
And you're waiting outside Jimmy's front door 
But nobody's in and nobody's home 'til four

So you're sitting there with nothing to do 
Talking about Robert Riger and his motley crew 
And where you're gonna go and where you're gonna sleep tonight

: All along the watch tower

Bm 
"There must 
A 
be some kind of 
G 
way out of 
A 
here,"
Bm 
  said the 
A 
joker to the 
G 
thief
A 
,

Bm 
"There's 
A 
too much con
G 
fusion
A 
,  
Bm 
  I can't 
A 
get no re
G 
lief. 
A 
 

Bm 
Business
A 
men, they 
G 
drink my 
A 
wine, 
Bm 
 plowmen 
A 
dig my 
G 
earth, 
A 
 

Bm 
None of 
A 
them a
G 
long the 
A 
line 
Bm 
  know what 
A 
any of it is 
G 
worth." 
A 
 


"No reason to get excited," the thief, he kindly spoke,
"There are many here among us who feel that life is but a joke.
But you and I, we've been through that, and this is not our fate,
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late."

All along the watchtower, princes kept the view
While all the women came and went, barefoot servants, too.

Outside in the distance a wildcat did growl,
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl

With their tanks and their bombs and their bombs and their guns 
In your head, in your head, they are dy-ing.

3. Sick and tired of what to say
No one listens, anyway
Sing, that's all you can

4. Rambling years of lousy luck
You miss the smell of burning turf
Dream, that's all you can

Ref: 
Ah, but don't, no don't sink the boat
That you built, you built to keep afloat
Ah no, don't, no don't sink the boat
That you built, that you built to keep afloat

5. Singled out for who you are
It takes all types to judge a man
Feel, that's all you can

6. Filthy suits with bigot ears
Hide behind their own worst fears
Live, that's all you can

7. No matter where I put my head
I wake up feeling sound again
Dream, it's all you can

8. Tomorrow smells of less decay
The flowers quick just bloom and fray
Be thankful, that's all you can

Ref: 
Ah, but don't, don't sink the boat
That you built, you built to keep afloat
Ah no, don't, no don't sink the boat
That you built, you built to keep afloat

A ripe old age, a ripe old age
I'm a ripe old age, that's what I am
I'm ripe old age, a ripe old age
A ripe old age, just do it the best I can, hey

Though now it seems you'll never know
But every lad to a man must grow
Till winter comes to celebrate
Then proudly chills the bone
When at last they bury me
Into this ground you'll someday see
And you, did you listen to anything I said?
Did F 
you ever 
G 
listen to 
Am 
me?

and A 
get it out of our minds 

C#m 
I slept a 
A 
while 

to H 
get it all 

it seems alright 
to find a place without a single lie 
where is the night 
we ran into 

Cause nothing is good 
I can’t explain 
falling down and caught up the rain 
I turn myself into changes 
the night I kissed you goodbye 
(your death is over) 

Ref:

Come 
A

C#m 
You want to wash it down 
A 
  I'm pretty in scarlet

H 
I turn myself to say good
C#m 
bye


It’s o.k. 
it doesn’t count 
found my place 
a deeper sound 
let me dive alone.
Let me dive alone. 

2. You gave me wine 
to poison me 
and take away my time 
I can hear you cry 
I wonder why 

´Cause nothing is good 
I can’t explain 
falling down and caught up the rain 
I turn myself into changes 
the night I kissed you goodbye 
(your death is over) 

Ref: 

And if you throw a stone on me 
(I’m pretty in scarlet) 
and if you need some pain to see 
(I’m pretty in scarlet)
and if you live your lies 
I will run

he passed on worries and warning
carried away by a moonlight shadow

lost in a riddle that

Saturday night

C#mi 
far a
A 
way on the 
H 
other side

he was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
and she couldn't find how to push through.

2. The trees that whisper in the evening
carried away by a moonlight shadow
sing a song of sorrow and grieving
carried away by a moonlight shadow
all she saw was the silhouette of a gun
far away on the other side
he was shot six times by a man on the run
and she couldn't find how to push through.

3. Four a.m. in the morning
carried away by a moonlight shadow
I watch your vision forming
carried away by a moonlight shadow
the stars move slowly in a silvery light
far away on the other side
will you come to talk to me this night
but she couldn't find how to push through.

: Forest

When we wAm 
ent off away from the 
C 
forest,

we did travel fG 
ar to get a taste of 
Am 
so much more.

And it's the same for the rest of the song.
The instrumental breaks are a bit different.

We dug up the roots of all the stories, put 'em in a pot
and brought them to a fiery road.
We fed on these things without a worry,
never gave a thought to the coming of the winter storm.
Gone away, gone away, what was yesterday.
Make a meal, make a bed, tuck your feet in.
Rested elbows twice on a table can be nice,
but the comforts they can be deceiving

The seasons are not what they once seemed.
The berries all are green, though summer's at a fine high crest.
We lifted our shirts up in a hurry,
reaching for the belly hollow from the long cold rest.
We slept up all the fat but there'd be no more of that,
cause there must be some disease 'neath the canopies.
Swinging tails from trees we could gather what we need.
Give away what we had our first share of,
but now the forks and knives with the sacrifice.
We could bare only some can believe in.

When we in turn, we find all the leaves had died.
Had we all gone away for such a long time.
we are alike, so sweet and enough to eat,
but now it's all just bones and a long way away from home.

1. Wake into these sounds again I wonder how I'll sleep,
Passing out is passing off into the stubborn deep,
Id like to meet a human who makes it all seem clear,
To work out all these cycles and work out why I'm standing here.

Ref: 
I'm falling over and over and over and over again now,
Calling over and over and over and over again now.

2. Running through my life right now I don't regret a thing,
Things I do just me laugh and make me want to drink,
I'd like to meet a mad man who makes it all seem sane,
To work out all these troubles and what there is to gain

3. Projecting what I want is always hard to know,
But when it comes between my sights ill let the damage show,

Sailing through the stars at night until our world is gone.

And I was burned in the heat
But the road I must travel

Couldn't guess his age
I found his empty journal
I filled up every page
10. I called up my state senator
They said he wasn't there
The secretary took my name
And man she sounded scared
11. So I counted my misfortunes
I added up the blame
I picked through all the garbage
I checked off all the names
12. I read in the newspaper
They'd questioned all my friends
They hoped that they could find me
Before I struck again
13. Well I sang to myself
That I want to be free
But the road I must travel
Its end I cannot see
14. So when thirsty I will drink
When hungry I will steal
But the road I must travel
Its end I cannot see
15. So tonight I walk in anger
With worn shoes on my feet
But the road I must travel
Its end I cannot see
16. And I will sing to myself
That I'm gonna be free
But the road I must travel
Its end I cannot see

3. Marry me girl be my fairy to the world  
Be my very own constellation 
A teenage bride with a baby inside  
Getting high on information 
And buy me a star on the boulevard 
It's Californication 

4. Space may be the final frontier 
But it's made in a Hollywood basement 
Cobain can you hear the spheres 
Singing songs off station to station 
And Alderon's not far away
It's Californication

Am - Fmaj7 - Am - Fmaj7 

Bridge: Born and raised by those who praise
Control of population 
Everybody's been there and 
I don't mean on vacation

5. Destruction leads to a very rough road 
But it also breeds creation 
And earthquakes are to a girl's guitar 
They're just another good vibration 
And tidal waves couldn't save the world 
From Californication 

Am - Fmaj7 - Am - Fmaj7 

Bridge: Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging 
Sicker than the rest 
There is no test 
But this is what you're craving
