[Verse 1]
C                           Am
Dear Haley, can you save me from the borrowed cloud I'm on 
Fm                  C
All you gotta do is try,
Em                       F
Pray you're just getting by

C                                  Am
Hey wait, I thought you'd made it, how'd your bottled crown fall off
Fm                       C
Tell me how'd you get so tired
Em                F
Faded down to the wire


[Pre-chorus]
G                                    C - C/B - Am
Try living a lie and kicking out the same old guise

[Verse 2]
C                 Am
So very ordinary, wait until my bomb goes off
Fm                     C
See the actors run and hide
Em             F
Fake it all in stride

C                            Am
One day we all can say we're gone and haunt the ground we're from
Fm                   C
Everything's so open wide
Em              F
Here within the divide


[Pre-chorus]
G                                    C - C/B - Am
Try living a lie and kicking out the same old guise

Ain't it the life, ain't it the life, ain't it the life, got no crime,
Fm           C
Just sail on by
Em      F
Sail on by

             C                  Am                 C            Am
Ain't it the life, ain't it the life, ain't it the life, got no crime,
Fm           C
Just sail on by
Em      F
Sail on by

Ain't it the life
