Life On The Shelf

A  G

[Verse 1]

A                    G
The feelings getting older
A                    G
The dust has settled down
A                    G
Theres dirt up on my shoulder
A                G
When you took me down
A                    G
I've seen inside the darkness
A                      G
Sometimes a glimpse of her
A                     G
She's taking all your free time
A                G
Is that what you prefer

[Chorus 1]

E  D  A

E    D    A
     Life on the shelf
E    D       A
     Doesn't hurt so bad
E    D   A
     Til you're left behind
E    A         G
     By you're time

[Verse 2]

A                   G
The fate of feeling lonely
A                 G
My head begins to wane
A              G
I've got a few memories
A                     G
To get me through the pain
A                     G
Like running down the stairs
A                   G
To meet the morning sky
A                   G
You held me by your side
A                G
On the fourth of July

[Chorus 2]

E  D  A

E    D    A
     Life on the shelf
E    D       A
     Doesn't hurt so bad
E    D   A
     Til you're left behind
E    A         G
     By you're time

[Jam]

E  D  A

[Chorus 3]

E  D  A

E    D    A
     Life on the shelf
E    D       A
     Doesn't hurt so bad
E    D   A
     Til you're left behind
E    A         G
     By you're time
