Story Of My Life

Am   E

[Verse 1]

Am
You say it was like this,
       E
I was torn between two worlds.
Am
One full of promise,
          E
And the truth I knew would hurt.
Am
You say I'm no angel,
           E
Trying to put the past behind.
    Am           E
So now I try to find

[Pre-chorus]

F           Dm
A place to leave all,
F               Dm
Memories in my mind.

[Chorus]

     Am  F  C     E      Am  F
We try...    our lives away,
       C              E
Then stumble to the grave.
     Am  F  C       E         F
We cry...     and still they say,
                   Dm
The past wont go away.
                 Am     E
The story of my life.

[Verse 2]

Am
See I was just thinking,
        E
Now my life is on the road.
Am
The straight and the narrow,
        E
On the route that I've been shown.
Am
You know its not easy,
     E
To try to change your ways.
    Am           E
So now I try to find,

[Pre-chorus]

F           Dm
A place to leave all,
F               Dm
Memories in my mind.

[Chorus]

     Am  F  C     E      Am  F
We try...    our lives away,
       C              E
Then stumble to the grave.
     Am  F  C       E         F
We cry...     and still they say,
                   Dm
The past wont go away.
                 Am     E
The story of my life.

[Interlude]

Am    E

[Pre-chorus]

F           Dm
A place to leave all,
F               Dm
Memories in my mind.

[Chorus]

We try...    our lives away,

     Am  F  C       E         F
We cry...     and still they say,
                   Dm
The past wont go away.

The story of my,

       C              E
Then stumble to the grave.
