This Is The Life chords by Amy MacDonald

Guitar chords with lyrics

Capo: 2nd Fret


Intro
B minorBm  G MajorG  D MajorD  F#F#

Verse 1

B minorBm
Oh the wind whistles down
    G MajorG
The cold dark street tonight
        D MajorD                        F#F#
And the people they were dancing to the music vibe
        B minorBm
And the boys chase the girls

With the curls in their hair
        G MajorG
And the shy tormented youth sit way over there
        D MajorD
And the songs they get louder
                       F#F#
Each one better than before


Chorus

B minorBm
And you're singing the songs

Thinking this is the life
                       G MajorG
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
                D MajorD
Where you gonna go

Where you gonna go
                        F#F#
Where you gonna sleep tonight
B minorBm
And you're singing the songs

Thinking this is the life
        G MajorG
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
D MajorD
Where you gonna go

Where you gonna go
                      F#F#
Where you gonna sleep tonight

Verse

B minorBm
So you're heading down the road

In your taxi for four
           G MajorG
And you're waiting outside Jimmy's front door
    D MajorD                                  F#F#
But nobody's in and nobody's home 'til four
          B minorBm
So you're sitting there with nothing to do
 G MajorG
Talking about Robert Riger and his motley crew
    D									 F#F#
And where you're gonna go and where you're gonna sleep tonight

This Is The Life chords

'This is the life' is from Amy Macdonald's album with the same name from 2007 and is already a modern indie-folk classic.

The song is all about having great nights out not knowing where and how the night might end. Playing the song is great fun, good for parties and always creates a good mood. Enjoy!
