Nickel Creek – Rest Of My Life (Ukulele)

Fmaj7  C
The battle is over

Fmaj7  C
Here we all lie

Fmaj7   Am
In a dry sea of Solo cups

Fmaj7   G
With the sun in our eyes

Fmaj7   C
But it's one of those endings

                                            Am           D
Where no one claps 'cause they're sure that there's mo-re

D/F#              G             F              Em          Dm           C
What a great way to start the first day of the rest of my life

Fmaj7   C
I guess the show's going on

Fmaj7   Am
So we pick up the pieces

Fmaj7   G
We dropped for a song

Dm      C
And an ear-splitting headache

                                         Am             D
That makes it hard to figure out which puzzle they're f-or

              F                                   G#
But I can leave this part out of the story I write

                     G                     F                Em          Dm          Fm       Bb6
And there are worse ways to start the first day of the rest of my life

Fm                                      Bb6
Roommates friends lovers - quiet

                          Fm                     Bb6
I'm turning myself in-to some-thing a little less promising

                    F
A little mo-re useful

F  Em  Dm  C                                                     Am   D
We lost but we'll live to call off the war

               Am                                  D
Don't that ceiling look high from the floor

           F                                  G#
Don't it hurt just to move As we shrink from the light

        Bb                              Dm               C
As it pierces our bodies and thaws out our hearts

            G/B               Am            G             Fmaj7     Fm
What a great way to start the first day of the rest of

                      C
The rest of my life
