My life was once a joy to me,

G / c / g

Never knowing, i was growing, everyday.

D g d

My life was once a toy to me,

Em

And i wound it and i found it ran away.

Am

So i raced through the night

G

With a face at my feet, like a god i would write,

F

All the melodies were sweet, and the women were white.

E d

It was easy to survive, my life was so alive.



My life was once a flag to me

And i waved it and behaved like i was told.

My life was once a drag to me

And i loudly, and i proudly, lost control

I was drawn by a dream

I was loved by a lie, every serf on the scene

Begged me to buy.

But i slipped through the scheme

So lucky to fail

My life was not for sale.



My life is now a myth to me

Like the drifter, with his laughter in the dawn.

My life is now a death to me

So i'll mold it and i'll hold it till i'm born

So i turned to the land

Where i'm so out of place

Throw a curse on the plan

In return for the grace

To know where i stand

Take everything i own

Take your tap from my phone

And leave my life alone

My life alone.
