Frank Sinatra-That's Life - BPM - 61

[Intro]
G Em Am7 D x2
 
[Verse 1]
That's [G] life (that's life), that's what [B7] all the people say
[Em7] You're ridin' high in April, [A7] shot down in May
But [G] I know I'm gonna [B7] change that [Em7] tune
When [A7] I'm back on top, back on top in [D13] June
 
[Verse 2]
I said that's [G] life (that's life), and as 
[B7] funny as it may seem
[Em7] Some people get their kicks [A7] stompin' on a dream
[G/D] But I don't let it, [B7] let it get me [Em] down
'Cause this [A7] fine old world, [C/D] it keeps 
spinnin' a [G] round [C/G] [G] 
 
[Bridge]
I've been a [G7] puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king
I've been [C6] up and down and over and out and I know one thing
Each [A7] time I find myself flat on my face
[D] pick myself [D] up and get [D] back 
in the [D] rac [C/D] e 
 
[Verse 3]
That's [G] life (that's life), I tell you 
[B7] I can't deny it
[Em7] I thought of quittin', baby, [A7] but 
my heart just ain't gonna buy it
And [G/D] if I didn't think it was [B7] worth 
one single [Em7] try
I'd [A7] jump right on a big bird [C/D] and 
then I'd [G] fly [C/G] [G] 
 
[Bridge]
I've been a [G7] puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king
I've been [C6] up and down and over and out and I know one thing
Each [A7] time I find myself layin' flat on my face
I just [D] pick myself [D] up and get [Eb] back in the race
 
[Verse 4]
That's [Ab] life (that's life), that's life 
[C7] and I can't deny it
[Fm] Many times I thought of cuttin' 
[Bb7] out but my heart won't buy it
But [Ab/Eb] if there's nothin' [C7] shakin' come this here 
[Fm] July [Bb7] [BIG STOP]

[FREE TIME - NO DRUMS]
I'm gonna [Bb7] roll myself up in a [Db/Eb-X6666X] big ball a-and 

[DRUMS IN]
[Ab] die (doot doot)
[B7] (doot doot) [E7] (doot doot) [Db/Eb](*offbeat stop)

[End - Free time]   
[A7b5-454544] My .... [Ab7] my!
