Life Of A Cat

A

[Verse 1]
               DM7           A        Aaug
i wish i was a man of simple means
           DM7                    A       Aaug
of nights spent in, of cold baked beans
              Bm               E
the constant scare of broken dreams
A           D         A
oh for the life of a cat

[Verse 2]
               DM7           A       Aaug
i wish i was a man of basic needs
             DM7                A       Aaug
of soft no thanks, polite yes please
             Bm                E
of just one mood and just two speeds
     A           D          A
the slow and the stops of a cat

[Chorus]
       Bm       E          A
we got cctv across the sky satellites above
       Bm                  E                  A
we got wandering hands and roving eye but we cannot find real love
A/G#      F#m      A   F#m     A
we've got cia and fbi mi5 and more
    F#m             A               D                  Dm
but still we cannot find the key to open eases door
                A
to open eases door

[Bridge]
E                                 Esus   A
when did life get so complicated, 18 or 21
E                               Esus            A
when did we wake up to find the simple life had gone
A/G#   F#m                 A                  F#m            A
was it school or place of work that took simplicity by the throat
  F#m             A                  D                             Dm
i shook until the answers drop like cards from dead man's coat
                            A
like cards from dead man's coat

[Verse 3]
      DM7              A        Aaug
how i wish for country walk
              DM7            A       Aaug
the song and dance of child talk
             Bm                E
the spider's web, the name in chalk
A         D         A
oh for a life like that.
