          D                      A7
Well it’s coming onto 13 years together, babe

  Em                           C           A7
I pray that it’s the luck... a lucky, lucky number

      D                                     A7
And although I know I’ve brought you joy and happiness, babe

     Em                    C                 A7
I’ve also been a fec-- a fecund resource for anger
[Chorus]
           D                D7
'Cause it’s all a part of the game

          D                 A7
Yeah, it’s all a part of the symphony

      D7                         G
And I pray that your face is the last I see

     A7       Em   A7
On a peaceful afternoon
[Verse 2]
    D                               A7
And now that our machine is running at full steam

  Em                         C               A7
I pray that nothing shucks a wrench into the matter

      D                                          A7
But between sex and death and tryin’ to keep the kitchen clean

         Em                           C       A7
Remember wild the roses bloom best in ruins forever after
[Chorus]
           D                D7
'Cause it’s all a part of the game

          D                 A7
Yeah, it’s all a part of the symphony

      D7                         G
And I pray that your face is the last I see

     A7       Em   A7
On a peaceful afternoon

            Em
Leaving the living room
[Non-lyrical Vocalizing] D A Em C A7 (x2) [Chorus]
           D                 D7
Yeah, it’s all a part of the game

           D                 A7
Yeah, it’s all a part of the symphony

      D7                         G
And I pray that your face is the last I see

     A7       Em   A7
On a peaceful afternoon
[Chorus]
            D             D7
And just in case you go before me

      D                         A7
Rest assured that of this I can guarantee

        D7                        G
That my face, that my face is the last you’ll see

     A7       Em   A7
On a peaceful afternoon

            Em
Leaving the living

       D
Living room
