Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Everyone's [C]life is bitter[F]sweet
It's [D]a door that opens [G]wide
And [C]no man can call himsel[F]f complete
[D]Till he's seen it from both

[Interlude 1]
sides
[G][C][F][C][F][D][C]

[Verse 2]
This door [F]swings both [C]ways
It's marked [F]'in' [C]and 'out'
Some days you'll [F]want to cry
And [D]some days you will shout
[G]

[Verse 3]
[C]
This door [F]swings both [C]ways
It goes [F]back and [C]forth
In comes a [F]southern breeze
Or a [D]cold wind [G]from the north

[Verse 4]
[C]
This door [F]swings both [C]ways
Lets in [F]joy and [C]pain
In comes the [F]morning sun
And [D]then the evening rain
[G]

[Verse 5]
[C]
This door [F]swings both [C]ways
Lets in [F]dark and [C]light
Every day you [F]make the choice
To [D]let in wrong or right

[Verse 6]
[C]When shadows fal[G]l
You must prepare yourself for [C]sunshine
For [G]everything there is an end
And so my [F]friend you must be [G]brave

[Interlude 2]
[C][F][C][F][C][Am][D]
[G][C]

[Verse 7]
This door [F]swings both [C]ways
Which one [F]will it [C]be
Will we live in [F]happiness or
[D]dwell in misery
[G]

[Verse 8]
[C]
This door [F]swings both [C]ways
Let[G]s i[C]n e[F]arth and s[C]ky
Make the [G]most [C]of [F]livin' if you're
[D]not pre[G]pared to [C]die
Make the most of [F]livin' if you're [D]not
pre[G]pared to [C]die
[F]

[Verse 9]
[C]
(This door [F]swings both ways)

[Outro 1]
