On Love On Life

D                A                Bm
So I sit here writing words in our old place
              G
They all come out as letters
       D          A                    Bm
And I contemplate mistakes that we all make
              G
Start and the ending of eras
D            A
When mystery fades
Bm              G
We identify the problems
          D          A              Bm       G
But they may not be problems after all

[Pre-Chorus]
D         A            Bm             G
Shock and dismay they affect what we say
          D                           A
We should bite our tongues we should bite our tongues
Bm                G
Cause after all it's only our lives anyway
D    G  A

[Chorus]
      D            G
And I can't let it bother me
   A                  D     A        Bm
If fact and fate just can't agree on love on life
      G              A                D
Can't we stop taking ourselves too seriously

     D                A              Bm
So I sit here carving words into the wall
           G                       D
Words that remind me of just how I was
                A                   Bm
I never felt as old and lonely as I felt
           G
When I was young and in love
D            A
When mystery fades
Bm              G
We identify the problems
          D          A              Bm         G
But they may not be problems after all

[Pre-Chorus]
D         A            Bm             G
Shock and dismay they affect what we say
          D                           A
We should bite our tongues we should bite our tongues
Bm                G
Cause after all it's only our lives anyway
D    G  A

[Chorus]
      D            G
And I can't let it bother me
   A                  D     A        Bm
If fact and fate just can't agree on love on life
      G              A                D
Can't we stop taking ourselves too seriously
                   G
And I can't let it bother me
   A                  D     A        Bm
If fact and fate just can't agree on love on life
      G              A                D
Can't we stop taking ourselves too seriously
