what is a life Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I've lived in this town for
13 years I've [F#m]been around
You see that [G]window in that
[D]tower that was [A]mine
Under that [D]fluorescent light,
well I made cold calls through the night
To [F#m]houses [G]deep in suburbs
I will [D]never [A]go
[D]Then in [A]Chinatown I'd get
[Bm]something and hang around
[F#m]How does that b[G]usker know
[D]each day from the next?
[A]See that man[D] who just brushed past me,
well I know [Bm]him but don't [F#m]ask me
About him I [G]wonder is he
[D]still with his [A]wife
What is [G]a life?[D]
What is [A]a life?
What is [G]a life?
[D]What is a [A]life?
The [D]ferries pull up [A]in the [D]evening [Bm]warmth
I used to [D]give out papers [G]here as they
[D]rushed on their way [A]home
[D]The streets are full of [Bm]plaques
Just where [D]that park is used [G]to be a den of [D]wailers,
Jesus [A]Christ
What is [G]a life?[D]
What is [A]a life?
What [G]is [D]a lif[A]e?
What is a [G]life?
[D]What is a [A]life?
What is a [G]life?
[D]What is a [A]life?[G][D][A][G]
[D][A]
[G]What [D]is [A]a l[D]ife[A]?[G][D][A]
Of [D]all the jobs I've had,
well I can't [Bm]say they've turned [D]out [F#m]bad
It's [D]just [G]funny when you think
[D]that guy was you[A][D][A]
A [D]waiter on his break[Esus4],
[D]he smokes a cigarette
And [F#m]takes a [G]long look at a
re[D]paired paring knife

[Outro 1]
[D][A]
