I
       A                      Esus                             A      Esus
The secret of life is enjoying the passage of time
A                       Esus
Any fool can do it
A                                Esus
There ain't nothing to it
Dmaj7                            C#m7
Nobody knows how we got to
                       F#7     C#m7 F#7
The top of the hill
      Bm7                              D/E    E/F#
But since we're on our way down
       Bm7                             D/E    E/F#
We might as well enjoy the ride

       A                           Esus                  A        Esus
The secret of love is in opening up your heart
      A                 Esus
It's okay to feel afraid
       A                                       Esus
But don't let that stand in your way
          Dmaj7                    C#m7                F#7    C#m7 F#7
Cause anyone knows that love is the only road
Bm7                                           D/E    E/F#
And since we're only here for a while
       Bm7                                  D/E    E/F#
We might as well show some style
              A             Esus
C'mon, give us a smile


CHORUS
              Dmaj7
Isn't it a lovely ride
C#m7              F#7
Sliding down, Gliding down
Bm7                     D/E    E/F#
Try not to try too hard
                          A
It's just a lovely ride



III
              A                                   Esus
Now the thing about time is that time
                  A        Esus
Isn't really real
      A                         Esus
It's just your point of view
         A                     Esus
How does it feel for you
Dmaj7                         C#m7
Einstein said he could never
                    F#7  C#m7 F#7
understand it all
Bm7                                  D/E    E/F#
Planets spinning through space
       Bm7                   D/E    E/F#
The smile upon your face
         A                                  Esus
Now welcome to the human race

CHORUS II
              Dmaj7
Isn't it a lovely ride
                 C#m7                       F#7
Oh, I'll be sliding down, I'll be gliding down
Bm7                     D/E     E/F#
Try not to try too hard
                          A
It's just a lovely ride

CHORUS III
                      Dmaj7
Some kind of lovely ride
                                     C#m7
Oh yes tonight¦I'll be sliding down
            F#7
See me gliding down
Bm7                    D/E   E/F#
Try not to try too hard
                          A
It's just a lovely ride

               A                     Esus                             A
