The Life

[D]  [A]  [Bm]  [G]

Im [D]leaving tonight
Down the same dirt road
[A]A million times
Ive driven just to get home [Bm]
And I aint ever looking b[G]ack
For nothing

[D]Headed for the coast
Looking for the high life
[A]Everybody knows
Its nothing but a good time [Bm]
And I sold everything I h[G]ad
For something
[Em]I cant seem to f[G]ind

[D] So this is the life they talked a[A]bout
And this is the I cant live with[Bm]out
When the real world crashes [G]down
Oh if they could see me [D]now
When all the dreams are all your [A]own
Turn to nightmares all a[Bm]lone
It hits you right between the e[G]yes
This is the [D]life  [A]
This is the l[Bm]ife
ohoh[G]oh

[D]These four walls feel more like a prison
In[A]stead of pure highs
I couldnt wait to live in [Bm]
So I just drink myself to s[G]leep
[Again]

I [D]cant escape my mind

This aint like a movie
Its [A]getting hard to hide
More its doin to me [Bm]
I dont know how long I can k[G]eep
From going
[Em]Crazy all the t[G]ime

[D] So this is the life they talked a[A]bout
So this is the I cant live with[Bm]out
When the real world crashes [G]down
Oh if they could see me [D]now
When all the dreams are all your [A]own
Turn to nightmares all a[Bm]lone
It hits you right between the e[G]yes
This is the [D]life  [A]       [Bm]             [G]

[Bm]   Nothings ever what it seems
[A]   Maybe that grass aint so green
[Bm]   Nothings ever out of [G]reach

When youre seventeen

[D]  This is the life they talked a[A]bout
This is the I cant live with[Bm]out
When the real world crashes d[G]own
Oh if they could see me n[D]ow
When all the dreams are all your [A]own
Turn to nightmares all al[Bm]one
It hits you right between the [G]eyes
This is the l[D]ife
Ohh[A]oh
This is the l[Bm]ife
ye[G]ah
