(intro 4x)  Dm Am Bb

Bb
  The time has come
           Dm          Am
For me to talk to you
Bb
  And I don't mean
              Dm    Am
To hurt your pride
Bb                        Dm        C
  But everybody needs a friend sometimes
             Bb           Gm
To make you see the light

              Dm
In the game of life
            Bb
The strong survive
              F
We're on a one-way street
                  Em   Dm
We gotta make it out alive
            Bb              Am   Am C
And never letem drag us down
              Dm
In the game of life
             Bb
We live and die
         F
Another breath begins
                     Em    Dm
Another chance to win the fight
         Bb                       Am   Am C
From the moment that you hit the ground
In the game of life

( Dm Am Bb ) (2x)

Bb
You're born to hunt
            Dm     Am
And never run away
Bb
And then you're hunted
         Dm   Am
By the prey
Bb
The wounded deer
                   Dm
Leaps highest to the sun
C           Bb       Gm
Until his day is done

              Dm
In the game of life
            Bb
The strong survive
              F
We're on a one-way street
                  Em   Dm
We gotta make it out alive
            Bb              Am   Am C
And never letem drag us down
              Dm
In the game of life
             Bb
We live and die
         F
Another breath begins
                     Em    Dm
Another chance to win the fight
         Bb                       Am   Am C
From the moment that you hit the ground
In the game of life

Dm                  Am
  Here comes the morning
Bb                 Gm
  It's time to play
