The Life You Lead
BJH - The Life You Lead
from Welcome To The Show
C
There's a life that burns
F C
When the night has come
F C G
Makes me understand
C
You're the one I see
F C
And I can't say no
F C G
Take me by the hand
F
Can't believe that you want it to be
C G
Just the game and we're playing the parts
F
Such a feeling, it won't let me be
C G
Like an arrow that's straight for the heart
C
'Cause the one you want
F C
Is the one you lose
F C G
That's what people say
C
And the life you lead
F C
Is the one you choose
F C G
Help me on the way
