That's Life: Frank Sinatra.
#5 in 1966.
INTRO:
[D7] [D+]
#1.
[G] [B7]
That's life...that's what all the people say.
[Em7] [A] [A7]
You're riding high in April, shot down in May.
[G] [C9] [Bm7] [Em7]
But I know I'm gonna change that tune,
[A9] [Am7] [D7] [D+]
when I'm back on top, back on top in June.
#2.
[D+] [G] [B7]
I said that's life...and as funny as it may seem,
[Em7] [A7]
some people get their kicks, stompin' on a dream.
[G] [Fdim] [F6] [Em]
But I don't let it, let it, get me down,
[A9] [D9] [G]
cause this fine old world, it keeps spinning around.
CHORUS:
[G7]
I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,
a poet, a pawn and a king.
[C6]
I've been up and down and over and out,
and I know one thing.
[A9]
Each time I find myself, flat on my face,
[D7] [D9] [D+]
I pick myself up and get back in the race.
#3.
[D+] [G] [B7]
That's life, I tell ya, I can't deny it,
[Em] [A7]
I thought of quitting baby, but my heart just ain't
gonna buy it.
[G] [G/F#] [Bm7-5] [E]
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try,
[A7] [D+] [D7] [G]
I'd jump right on a big bird and then I'd fly.

[G] [G/F#] [Bm7-5] [E]
But if there's nothing shakin' come this here July..
[A9] [A] [D7] [D+] [G]
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die..
[D+] [G]
My, My.
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
