I Need A Life

          A                C#m             F#m                   D
Im lookin down, come help me up, been stumblin round to, tryin' and fill my cup.

            A              C#m                      F#m               D                    A
It's half empty, been that way all my life, so come pour some in and take me out tonight.


A                                                               A
The sun is shinin' but we stay inside (oh but we go out at night),

C#m                                              C#m7 (lift pinky finger)
Stay in lookin' for a better life (oh but we go out at night),

F#m                                                      F#m
Put up curtains block out the light (oh but we go out at night)

D                                                                 D
And we stay in bed 'till we feel alright (oh but we go out at night)

I need meaning
I need a mission
I need a path
I need conviction
I need a life I've never had
I need much more good & much less bad

And we stay in bed 'till we feel alright (oh but we go out at night)



Repeat Bridge Riff: X 6 times (this time all the lyrics are read once, starting
from the third time)

I found meaning
I found a mission
I found a lord
I found religion
I found something I never had
I'm not sure what but it's not half bad
& I'm glad
I'm so, so glad
Those party habits are gone & dead
I'm turning in my old sinful ways
For a dull new life so I can pray, pray, pray
