Story of my liiiiiiiiife
[Verse 1]
     G             C                D
Well high school seemed like such a blur.

  G                C           D
I didn't have much interest in sports or school elections

    G          C           D
and in class I dreamed all day

                           G     C    D
'bout a rock 'n' roll weekend. (ooh  ooh)
[Verse 2]
        G           C            D
And the girl in the front of the room

   G            C              D
So close yet so far y'know she never seemed to notice

          G     C         D
That this silly schoolboy crush

               G      C    D
Wasn't just pretend. (ooh  ooh)
[Chorus]
G         C     D
Life goes by so fast.

G              C                    D
You only wanna do what you think is right.

G          C            D
Close your eyes and it's past.

[Verse 3]
      G            C           D
And I went down my old neighborhood.

    G              C               D
The faces have all changed, no one there left to talk to

        G           C          D
And the pool hall I loved as a kid

                  G     C    D
Is now a Seven Eleven. (ooh  ooh)
[Verse 4]
      G                C          D
And I went downtown to look for a job.

  G      C              D
I had no training, no experience to speak of

      G             C           D
And I looked at the holes in my jeans

                      G      C    D
And turned and headed back. (ooh  ooh)
[Chorus]
G         C     D
Life goes by so fast.

G              C                    D
You only wanna do what you think is right.

G          C            D
Close your eyes and it's past.

[Solo] [Verse 5]
         G                   C          D
Yeah and good times come and good times go.

  G             C                D
I only wish the good times would last a little longer.

    G                 C             D    
And I think about the good times we had

                    G     C   D
And why they had to end. (ooh ooh)
[Verse 6]
     G          C          D
So I sit at the edge of my bed.

  G           C         D
I strum my guitar and I sing an outlaw love song

G              C                 D
Thinkin' 'bout what you're doin' now

                       G      C   D
And when you're comin' back. (ooh ooh)
[Chorus]
G         C     D
Life goes by so fast.

G              C                    D
You only wanna do what you think is right.

G          C            D
Close your eyes and it's past.
