This Is The Life Chords by Amy Macdonald

[Intro]

Am  F  C  Em
 
[Verse]

        Am
Oh, the wind whistles down

    F
The cold dark street tonight

        C                       
And the people they were 

       Em
dancing to the music vibe

        Am
And the boys chase the girls

 With the curls in their hair

          F
While the shy tormented youth 

Sit way over there

        C
And the songs they get louder

                       Em
Each one better than before

 
[Chorus]

                        Am
And you're singing the songs,

 Thinking this is the life

                       F
And you wake up in the morning

 And your head feels twice the size

                   
Where you gonna go?  

C
Where you gonna go?

                        Em
Where you gonna sleep tonight

 
                        Am
And you're singing the songs,

 Thinking this is the life

                       F
And you wake up in the morning 

And your head feels twice the size

                  
Where you gonna go? 

C
Where you gonna go?

                        Em
Where you gonna sleep tonight

                        Am
Where you gonna sleep tonight
 
[Instrumental]

 Am   F  C  Em
 
[Verse]

          Am
So you're heading down the 

Road in your taxi for four

           F
And you're waiting outside 

Jimmy's front door

    C                                
But nobody's in and nobody's

          Em
 Home 'til four

          Am
So you're sitting there 

With nothing to do

         F
Talking about Robert Riger and

 His motley crew

    C                                                   
And where you're gonna go and 

                           Em
where you're gonna sleep tonight

 
[Chorus]

                        Am
And you're singing the songs,

 Thinking this is the life

                       F
And you wake up in the morning 

And your head feels twice the size

                   
Where you gonna go? 

C
Where you gonna go?

                        Em
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
 
                        Am
And you're singing the songs,

 Thinking this is the life

                       F
And you wake up in the morning

 and your head feels twice the size

                   
Where you gonna go? 

C
Where you gonna go?

                         Em
Where you gonna sleep tonight?

                         Am
Where you gonna sleep tonight?

 
[Instrumental]

 Am   F  C  Em
 Am   F  C  Em
 
[Chorus]

                        Am
And you're singing the songs,

 thinking this is the life

                       F
And you wake up in the morning

And your head feels twice the size
                   
Where you gonna go? 

C
Where you gonna go?

                         Em
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
 
                        Am
And you're singing the songs,

 Thinking this is the life

                       F
And you wake up in the morning

 and your head feels twice the size

                  
Where you gonna go?

 C
 Where you gonna go?

                         Em
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
 
                        Am
And you're singing the songs,

 Thinking this is the life

                       F
And you wake up in the morning

 And your head 

Feels twice the size

                   
Where you gonna go?  

C
Where you gonna go?

                         Em
Where you gonna sleep tonight?

 
                        Am
And you're singing the songs,

 Thinking this is the life

                       F
And you wake up in the morning

 and your head 

Feels twice the size

                  
Where you gonna go? 

C
Where you gonna go?

                         Em
Where you gonna sleep tonight?

                         Am
Where you gonna sleep tonight?

 
[Outro]

 Am   F  C  Em  Am
