I get myself up every day
To fight this "woe is me" demeanor
If things had gone another way
Now would my grass be any greener?
And as I'm struggling on my own
I have to think I'm not alone
Give and take, we catch our breaks
We all learn to survive
But don't look now
said don't look now
Cuz here we are,
Living the best days of our lives
These are the best days of our lives
I fly around the world to spend
My nights with strangers and their lovers
I notice happiness depends
On if we share it with each other
So when this craziness is through
I'll spend my happiness with you
*Chorus*
As we're walking through the fire
Isn't it great to be alive?
*Chorus*
-Outro/Chorus-
Give and take, we catch our breaks
We all learn to survive
Oh, but don't look now
I said don't look now
Cause here we are,
Living the best days of our lives
These are the best days of our lives
Notes:
The chorus should use the barred version of the A chord.
The general progression goes something like this:
If you want, you can add a little lick after the E chord, harder to do on the
guitar than the piano.
