What Is A Life

  D5

D5                  A           Bm               F#m
I've lived in this town for 13 years I've been around
              G              D             A
You see that window in that tower that was mine
       D                A                  Bm                    F#m
Under that fluorescent light, well I made cold calls through the night
           G              D             A
To houses deep in suburbs I will never go

D             A                Bm              F#m
Then in Chinatown I'd get something and hang around
               G           D                 A
How does that busker know each day from the next?
          D                   A                Bm                 F#m
See that man who just brushed past me, well I know him but don't ask me
             G        D                  A
About him I wonder is he still with his wife

           G     D
What is a life?
           A
What is a life?
           G
What is a life?
D          A
What is a life?

     D              A               Bm
The ferries pull up in the evening warmth
           F#m             G             D                  A
I used to give out papers here as they rushed on their way home
      D                   A
The streets are full of plaques
Bm              F#m             G           D               A
Just where that park is used to be a den of wailers, Jesus Christ

           G     D
What is a life?
           A
What is a life?
           G
What is a life?
D          A
What is a life?
           G
What is a life?
D           A
What is a life?
           G
What is a life?
D          A
What is a life?

G D A (4x)

    D                 A                Bm                     F#m
Of all the jobs I've had, well I can't say they've turned out bad
            G              D                 A
It's just funny when you think that guy was you
D                 A                 Bm
A waiter on his break, he smokes a cigarette
     F#m     G              D               A
And takes a long look at a repaired paring knife
