LIFE IS A LONG SONG JETHRO TULL
Capo 7th Fret
D Am7 D C Am7
When you're falling awake, and you take stock of the new day
D Am7 D C Am7
And you hear your voice cro-oak, as you choke on what you need to say
F C
Well don't you fret, don't you fear
G/D Asus4 A
I will bring you good cheer
D Am7 Em7
Life's a long song.
Life's a long song.
Life's a long song.
G/D Asus4
If you wait then your plate I will fill
As the verses unfold and your soul suffers the long day,
And the twelve o'clock gloom spins the room, you struggle on your way.
Well don't you sigh, don't you cry,
Lick the dust from your eye.
Life's a long song.
Life's a long song.
Life's a long song.
We will meet in the sweet light of dawn.
As the Baker Street train spills your pain all over your new dress,
And the symphony sounds underground but you under du - ress.
Well don't you squeal as the heel
Grinds you under the wheels.
Life's a long song.
Life's a long song.
Life's a long song.
But the tune ends too soon for us all
But the tune ends too soon for us all
