Chords

Hi, this is my first tab based upon tstein69's one. His is a great tab but I feel it is played on another position of the fretboard. This is my version. I also include general chords to play on acoustic. I think this is one of the most beautiful songs to play on acoustic: simple, clean, beautiful lyrics and I think Josh Rouse deserves it. Great mate!! Use only strings one, two and three:

         Amaj7                E            Amaj7     E        Amaj7            E         F#m
e|--------4--4-4-4-4---4------4--4---------4--4---7--4--------4-4--4----4------4----------2--|
B|-----5--5--5-5-5-5-----7-5--5--5------5--5----7----5-----5--5-5--5------7-5--5------5---2--|
G|-4/6----6--6-6-6-6----------4--4--4/6----6---------4-4/6----6-6--6-----------4--4/6-----2--|
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

And start all over again througout the whole song (more or less) The strumming of the chords might not be 100% accurate as it is quite hard to write this down. Listen to the song and you'll find out.

       Amaj7
Life is good

                E
Sometimes it's bad

            Amaj7
It has its ups

              E
It has its downs

             Amaj7              
Just sing a song 

              E
and feel all right

                  F#m
Cause that's just life

              Amaj7
And if you're lost

          E
Don't be sad

            Amaj7                  
There are good times

        E
to be had

             Amaj7
Just sing a song

              E
and let love shine

               F#m
Cause that's just life

             E
That's just life

             F#m
That's just life

                E
So darling don't cry

              Amaj7
And when your hour

        E
It is near

            Amaj7
And your friends

             E
They all are here

               Amaj7
To share their love

           E
and to be kind

           F#m
It's just life

                Amaj7
Oh and when you're gone

             E
You won‘t be back

              Amaj7
I'll remember those

                E
Special times we had

               Amaj7
I'll sing this song

             E
and feel alright

               F#m
Cause that's just life

             E
That's just life

             F#m
That's just life

                E
So darling don't cry
