Capo on 3rd Fret

G+G  B minorBm     C majorC        G+G
My life, it don't count for nothing.
G+G  B minorBm	      C majorC        G+G
When I look at this world, I feel so small.
G+G  B minorBm	    C majorC    G+G
My life, it's only a season:
G+G     B minorBm     C majorC        G+G
A augmentedA passing September that no one will recall.

G+G   B minorBm    C majorC    G+G
But I gave joy to my mother.
G+G   B minorBm    C majorC    D MajorD
And I made my lover smile.
G+G       B minorBm       C majorC      C/BC/B    G+G
And I can give comfort to my friends when they're hurting.
G+G   B minorBm       C majorC       G+G
And I can make it seem better for a while.

G+G  B minorBm    C majorC        G+G
My life, it's half the way travelled,
G+G    B minorBm          C majorC        G+G
And still I have not found my way out of this night.
G+G    B minorBm     C majorC     G+G
An' my life, it's tangled in wishes,
G+G    B minorBm          C majorC        G+G
And so many things that just never turned out right.


G+G   B minorBm    C majorC    G+G
But I gave joy to my mother.
G+G   B minorBm    C majorC    D MajorD
And I made my lover smile.
G+G       B minorBm       C majorC      C/BC/B    G+G
And I can give comfort to my friends when they're hurting.
G+G   B minorBm        C majorC   G+G
And I can make it seem better
G+G   B minorBm      C majorC   G+G
I can make it seem better,
G+G   B minorBm      C majorC      G+G
I can make it seem better for a while.

G+G  C majorC
Oh, oh oh.
G+G
Oh oh.

This is a great song for guitar, but she performs it on
the piano. Someone with a better ear may want to review
these chords because I probably made some mistakes along
the way. Have fun!
