Life Itself

Intro: Bm G D/F# A x 2


Verse 1:
    Bm                G                 D/F#                    A          Bm     G    D/F#       A
We met down in the valley, where the wine of love and destruction flowed

    Bm                     G            D/F#                    A          Bm     G    D/F#       A
There in that curve of darkness where flowers of temptation grow

            Bm             G              D/F#                 A          Bm     G    D/F#       A
I left the rest for the others it was you and nothing else

             Bm        G    D/F#           A
  G    D/F#       A
You felt so good to me baby, good as life itself



Chorus:

                  Em        F#m           G
You were life itself, rushing over me

         Em            F#m              G
Life itself, the wind in black elms

         Em               F#m                   G
Life itself, in your heart and in your eyes

 G                              Bm     G    D/F#       A
I can't make it without you



Verse 2:

    Bm                     G            D/F#                    A          Bm     G    D/F#       A
I knew you were in trouble, anyone could tell

    Bm                     G            D/F#                    A          Bm     G    D/F#       A
You carried your little black book from which all your secrets fell

    Bm                     G            D/F#                    A          Bm     G    D/F#       A
You squandered all your riches, your love, your beauty and your wealth

    Bm                     G            D/F#                    A          Bm     G    D/F#       A
Like you had no further use for, for life itself



Chorus:
                  Em        F#m           G
You were life itself, rushing over me

         Em            F#m              G
Life itself, the wind in black elms

         Em               F#m                   G
Life itself, in your heart and in your eyes

 G                              Bm     G    D/F#       A
I can't make it without you



Guitar Solo


Verse 3:

    Bm                     G            D/F#                    A          Bm     G    D/F#       A
Why do the things that we treasure most slip away in time

    Bm                     G            D/F#                    A          Bm     G    D/F#       A
Till to the music we grow deaf and to God's beauty blind

    Bm                     G            D/F#                    A          Bm     G    D/F#       A
Why do the things that connect us slowly pull us apart

    Bm                     G            D/F#                    A          Bm     G    D/F#       A
Till we fall away in our own darkness, stranger to our own hearts



Chorus:
                  Em        F#m           G
And to life itself, rushing over me

         Em            F#m              G
Life itself, the wind in black elms

         Em               F#m                   G
Life itself, in your heart and in your eyes

 G                              Bm     G    D/F#       A
I can't make it without you


                         Em
So here's one for the road

  F#m                      G
Here's one to your health


               Em        F#m           G
And to life itself, rushing over me

         Em            F#m              G
Life itself, the wind in black elms

         Em               F#m                   G
Life itself, in your heart and in your eyes

 G                              Bm     G    D/F#       A
I can't make it without you
