Capo: 2
G F C  4x
 
            G        F        
When you're falling awake and 
    G                 F   D  D7
you take stock of the new day,
        G               F     
and you hear your voice croak 
       G                 F       D  D7
as you choke on what you need to say,
                A#               F
well, don't you fret, don't you fear,
       C             D    D7
I will give you good cheer.

G                 F

       C                           D
If you wait then your plate I will fill.
 
       G        F        
As the verses unfold and 
     G                F    D  D7
your soul suffers the long day,
        G              F               G
and the twelve o'clock gloom spins the room,
             F       D  D7
you struggle on your way.
                A#               F
Well, don't you sigh, don't you cry,
         C              D   D7
lick the dust from your eye.
 
G                 F C
Life's a long song.

        C                          D   D7
We will meet in the sweet light of dawn.
 
       G            F            
As the Baker Street train spills 
     G                  F   D    D7
your pain all over your new dress,
        G        F      
and the symphony sounds 
     G              F        D   D7
underground put you under duress,
               A#     
well don't you squeal 
        F               C         D    D7
as the heel grinds you under the wheel.
 
G                 F C
Life's a long song.
G                 F C
Life's a long song.
G                 F
Life's a long song.
        C                         D
But the tune ends too soon for us all.
