This Is The Life

Amy Macdonald

[Intro]
C#m  A  E  G#m
[Verse]
C#m
Oh, the wind whistles down
A
The cold dark street tonight
          E                             G#m
And the people they were dancing to the music vibe
          C#m
And the boys chase the girls with the curls in their hair
A
While the shy tormented youth sit way over there
          E
And the songs they get louder
                       G#m
Each one better than before

[Chorus]
                        C#m
And you're singing the songs, thinking this is the life
                         A

And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
                   E
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
                         G#m
Where you gonna sleep tonight
                        C#m
And you're singing the songs, thinking this is the life
                         A
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
                   E
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
                         G#m
Where you gonna sleep tonight
                         C#m
Where you gonna sleep tonight

[Instrumental]
(C#m)  A  E  G#m

[Verse]
So you're heading down the road in your taxi for four
And you're waiting outside Jimmy's front door   
But nobody's in and nobody's home 'til four
So you're sitting there with nothing to do
Talking about Robert Riger and his motley crew
And where you're gonna go and where you're gonna sleep tonight

[Chorus]
And you're singing the songs, thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
And you're singing the songs, thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?

[Instrumental]
(C#m)  A  E  G#m
 C#m   A  E  G#m
[Chorus]
And you're singing the songs, thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
And you're singing the songs, thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
And you're singing the songs, thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
And you're singing the songs, thinking this is the life
And you wake up in the morning and your head feels twice the size
Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
Where you gonna sleep tonight?
