Life goes on

F                              G    Am     Am7
Working in a little ice cream factory
F                     G         Am     Am7
Breathing the air in your small town
         F          G     Am   G
And the sun sets down on you now
C
Fifteen twenty or thirty people
F              G
Walking on the street
         Am
Together singing songs
F         G
And the season changes
F          G
There will be new roses


C            F
Life goes on
                     G    Am
Here and beyond that horizon
                    Am7
It goes on and it changes
         G
And it changes you too
C            F
Life goes on
                     G    Am
Here and beyond that horizon
                   Am7
It goes on and it changes
         G
And it changes you too


F
But they’ve bombed the buildings
    G          Am     Am7
And they have killed
F                                  G
You are a pregnant twenty-two year old girl
Am           Am7
Left in tears
         F        G       Am G
But your heart is full of hope
C
Looking in your eyes
              F             G
Holding his daughter in his arms
        Am         Am7
After a year he’s back
F         G
And the war was over
F         G
You were still together


C            F
Life goes on
                     G    Am
Here and beyond that horizon
                    Am7
It goes on and it changes
         G
And it changes you too
C            F
Life goes on
                     G    Am
Here and beyond that horizon
                   Am7
It goes on and it changes
         G
And it changes you too

F                      G        Am  Am7

Twenty-four years now have gone by
F                      G        Am  Am7
And it’s your time to walk your way
         F
You’re a dreamer
G          Am  G
You’re a rebel
C
And you will suffer and you will fight
    F             G
And you will sacrifice yourself
           Am
But you believed in love
F               G
Funny how your man will betray you
F                         G
And in the meantime your love will save you, you see…

C            F
Life goes on
                     G    Am
Here and beyond that horizon
                    Am7
It goes on and it changes
         G
And it changes you too
C            F
Life goes on
                     G    Am
Here and beyond that horizon
                   Am7
It goes on and it changes
         G
And it changes you too
