      G                C     G                C
Let's make it a better life, leave it for the kids,

       Em     Bm  Em  D       C                 D
It's a lovely place,  welcome home to the human race,

       C         D      G     C             Bm       Bm
We can make it a better life, one we can be proud of,

               C                 Am*
So that at the end of the day, I hope we hear them say,

        D*                 G
That we left them a better life,

C          G     C
  A better life.
[Verse 1]
    G                   C                G  C
Now life is long and it starts right now,

           G                    C            G  C
And it's a lovely journey but I know somehow,

         G                         D
That the world has changed but the soul rеmains,

           Am                         C          G  C     G   C G
And with a lot of hard work there's a world to gain,   yeah.
[Pre-Chorus 1]
    C                                  Bm
And lifе's trip just as sure as you're born,

         Am
But it's up to you to take it,

            D
We're gonna try and make it better.
[Chorus]
      G                C     G
Let's make it a better life, leave it for the kids,

     D  Em                     C                 D
It's a  lovely place,  welcome home to the human race,

       C         D      G     C             Bm       Bm
We can make it a better life, one we can be proud of,

               C                 Am*
So that at the end of the day, I hope we hear them say,

        D*                 G
That we left them a better life,

C          G     C
  A better life.
[Verse 2]
     G                      C              G  C
They listed to their elders have their say,

             G                       C           G  C
But when the bickering started, they turned away,

          G                         D
Then they watched us argue and they heard us fight,

        Am                      C
So they tuned it out and danced into the night,

G      C                          G   C G
  They swore they'd never be like us.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
       C                               Bm
'Cause what we leave them is tired and worn,

         Am
And it's up to us to help it,

            D
We're gonna try and make it better.
[Outro]
      G                      C        G
We're gonna make it a better life and leave it for the kids,

     D  Em                      C                  D
It's a  lovely place, a welcome home for the human race,

            C                G     C             Bm       Bm
We're gonna make it a better life, one we can be proud of,

          C               Am*
So at the end of the day, we can laugh and say,

        D*                 G
That we left them a better life,

C          G     C
  A better life,

         G     C
A better life,

         G
A better life.
