Strum
D-DU-UDU
Lisa  likes brandy and the way it hits her lips
 She's a rock 'n' roll survivor with pendulum hips
 She's got deep  brown eyes, that've seen it all
 Working at a nightclub that was called The Avenue
 The bar men used to call her "Little Lisa, Looney Tunes"
 She went down  on almost anyone
 From the hard  time living 'til the Chelsea  days
 From when her hair  was sweet blonde 'til the day  it turned gray, she said :
L.I.F.E  G.O.E.S  O.N.
 You've got  more than money and sense,  my friend
 You've got heart  and you go  in your own way
L.I.F.E  G.O.E.S  O.N.
 What you don't  have now will come  back again
 You've got heart  and you go  in your own way
Some  people wear their history like a map on their face
 And Joey was an artist just living out of case
 But his best  word was his letters home
His  standard works of fiction about imaginary success
 The chorus girls in neon were his closest things to friends
 But to a writer,  the truth is no big deal
 From the hard  time living to the sleepless  nights
 And the black  and blue body from the weekend  fights. he'd say
 On my last  night on earth,  I won't look  to the sky
 Just breathe  in the air  and blink  in the light
 On my last  night on earth,  I'll pay  a high price
 To have  no regrets  and be done  with my life

[E]Lisa likes brandy and the way it hits her lips

She's a rock 'n' roll survivor with pendulum hips
She's got d[A]eep brown eyes, that've seen it [E]all

Working at a nightclub that was called The Avenue

The bar men used to call her "Little Lisa, Looney Tunes"
She went d[A]own on almost any[E]one
From the h[F#m]ard time living 'til the C[E]helsea days
From when her h[A]air was sweet blonde 'til the d[B]ay it turned gray, she said :

[E]L.I.F.E G.O.[A]E.S O.N.
You've g[B]ot more than money and s[A]ense, my friend
You've got h[E]eart and you [A]go in your own w[B]ay    [A]

And the bl[A]ack and blue body from the w[B]eekend fights. he'd say

On my l[A]ast night on e[E]arth, I won't [C#m]look to the s[B]ky
Just br[E]eathe in the [A]air and b[C#m]link in the l[B]ight
On my l[A]ast night on e[E]arth, I'll [C#m]pay a high p[B]rice
To h[E]ave no regr[A]ets and be [C#m]done with my l[B]ife
