Lush Life chords and lyrics - WILD BILL DAVIS

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[C]I used [C]to[C]
visit all the very gay places,
[Em]those [C]com[Bb]e what may plac[C]es,
[A]where [Bb]one relaxes on the
axis [Gm]of the wheel of life
to [C]get the feel of life
from [G]jazz and [C]cocktails.[G]
[C]The girls I knew had
sad and sullen gray faces
[Bbaug]with dist[C]wing gray traces
[Bb]that used to be there you could
[C]see where they'd been [Gm]washed away
by too many through the [C]day,
[G]twelve o 'clock [C]tilt.[A][B]
[Em]Then you came along
with your siren song
to tempt me to [E]mad[B]ness.
[Em]I thought for a
while that your poignant smile
was tinged with the sadness [D]of a
great [Bb]love for me.
[A]Ah, yes, I w[Db]as wrong.
[Abm]I gues[Gsus4]s I was wrong
[C]Life is lonely,
[C]again and only last [Bb]year
[F]Everything seems [Bb]so su[Ebm]re
[D]Now [C]life is awful,
[C]again a trough full of [C]heart's
would only be [B]a b[E]ore[D][G]
[Em]Awaken in [Bbaug]Paris
[G]would ease the [Ebm]bite of it[Ab]
[Db]All I care is to s[B]mile in spite of i[C]t
[Db]I'll forget you, [C]I will while
yet you are [C]still burning inside [Em]my br[A]ain.
Romance [D]is my stifling
thoughts [G]and strife.
[C]I'll live [F]a lush life [Bb]and
some small [A]dive.
And there I'll be [Dm]while [F]I rot
[C]with the rest [C]of [Eb]those[Ebm]
[D]whose lives are [C]lowly [Bb]doom[C]ed.
