That`s Life that`s what people say 
 2        32    3    2 -42   -4   -4  -4  -3 
You`re ridin` high in April shot down in May 
3  -3  -4  -5  -4 -5   -4     3   2 
But I know I`m gonna change that tune 
 3   -3   -4  6  -4  -4   -3 
When I`m back on top in June 
 -4     -4      -4-4  -4 -4   -3 
That`s Life    Funny  as it seems 
 2   3 -3   -4    -3     3   -4-4    -4   -3 
Some people get their kicks stompin` on dreams 
3  -3  -4    -4  -5 -4  -4  2 
But I don`t let it  get me down 
  3     -3   -4   -4   -4   -43     33 
`Cause this old world keeps goin` around 
  <-2   3  <3  -3 -3  3  -3 -3  3  -3 -3   3 -3 -3 
I`ve been   a  puppet a  pauper a pirate   a poet 
3 -4    3  -4  -3 
a pawn and  a  king 
 3    < 3   -3  3    -3  3   -3 -3  3   -3   3  -4 
I`ve  been  up and  down and  over  and out and  I 
 3   -4   -3 
know one thing 
 <5   <5  -3  -4   -3  -4   <5  -3 <5  -4 
Each time I  find  my-self flat on my face 
-3 -5  -4  -5   -5  -5  6   <-6 -5 <-6   -5 
I pick my-self  up and get back in the race 
 6     -4   -4  -4   -4-4 -3  
That`s Life I can`t  deny it 
2   3    -3   -4  -3  3   2  -4    -4   -4 
I thought of quitting but my heart just won`t  
 -3  3 
buy it 
3 -3 -4-4    -4   -4 -4   -4  -3 3 2 
If I didn`t think it was worth a try  
 2  <4   -3   3  2  <4  -3  3   3    -1  -33 
I`d roll my-self up in   a  big ball and die
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
