♫ Verse 1:
D          Dsus4  D    Dsus4
Sally came home today
D                   Dsus4  D
Didn’t have a whole lot to say
            G                    Gadd11    G
Just thumbed the St. Jude around her neck
     Gadd11  D       Dsus4  D    Dsus4
Took a drag  off her  cigarette

♫ Verse 2:
D             Dsus4   D    Dsus4
Gary’s still stuck at work
 D                    Dsus4  D
Spilled a green juice on his shirt
             G                Gadd11    G
Steps outside for a little air
     Gadd11        D               Dsus4  D
Half listens to whoever’s standing near


♫ Chorus:
G                        D
 Half a glass of wine and half a cigarette
G                   D
 Half the truth and see how far you get
    A                Asus4   A            Asus4
For all of that struggle and all of that strife
         G           Gadd11  G
And your consolation prize
D        Dsus4  D
Half life      (half life)


♫ Verse 3:
D                  Dsus4  D    Dsus4
Sally gets herself into   bed
D                    Dsus4  D
Takes half a pill to quiet  her head
       G         Gadd11  G
Watches a little TV
               Gadd11  D           Dsus4  D
And drifts off into a  half a sleep


♫ Chorus:
G               D
 Half a husband, half a car
G                            D
 Going half the distance not gеtting very far
A       Asus4  A         Asus4
 Half mother
half wife
         G           Gadd11  G
And your consolation prize

Half life      (half life)


♫ Verse 4:
D                        Dsus4
Gary gets home after dark
D
Sits a while with his car in park
     G
Just daydreaming
       D
Smoking a little green


♫ Chorus:
G                    D
 Half the time a dad, half the time at work
G                        D
 Half the time worrying exactly what a soul is worth
    A                Asus4   A            Asus4
For all of that struggle and all of that strife
     G           Gadd11  G
Your consolation prize
D
Half life
G                D
Half baked plans, half hearted dreams
G                         D
 Half the time wondering exactly what it means
    A                         Bm
You hurry going nowhere, time cuts you like a knife
         G    Gadd11  G
And your consolation  prize
             D    Dsus4
Oh, half life
 D        Dsus4    D    Dsus4
(Half life)
 D        Dsus4
(Half life)
