My life is changin' in so many ways

I don't know who to trust anymore

There's a shadow runnin' through my days
       Bb                        Dm  
Like a beggar goin' from door to door

I was thinkin' that maybe I'd get a maid
       Bb                      F   
Find a place nearby for her to stay

Just someone to keep my house clean -

Fix my meals and go away.

When life and love turn strange and   cold    
   C            G          Bb        F
To give a love,  you gotta live a love.

To live a love,  you gotta be part of.

A while ago somewhere I don't know when

I was watching a movie with a friend.

I fell in love with the actress.
