{1}
G
Hold your head up high
D                          Am    C 
turn your blue eyes to the sky  (there comes a time)
G       
And you can't run and hide
D                         Am    C
Tell the truth istead of lies (there comes a time)
C                              G                D 
The holes upon your palms have disappeared with years
C                               G               D              
You shouldn't have to wear that crown of thorns around your ears


Chorus

D                      C            G   
If this is life I want none of this 

D                      C            G
If this is life I want none of this 
D                      C            G

Too high a price I want none of this 

D                      C       D
If this is life I want none of this 

G
If this is life

G
Hey there little man
D
You must understand 
     Am    C
that we're not all to blame
G
The hurt you feel inside
D
Very soon subsides
        Am
But the scars
C
Well they remain
C                                 G                  D                 
The stake that burnt so bright is now blackend with age
C                           G                D        
And you should try to smile not cry tears of rage


Chorus

D                      C            G   
If this is life I want none of this 

D                      C            G
If this is life I want none of this 
D                      C            G

Too high a price I want none of this 

D                      C       D
If this is life I want none of this 

G
If this is life

G
I hear the drums so clear
D
jackboots draw ever near
    Am C  
and I can hear the cries
G              
What kind of world is this?
D
where ignorance is bliss
   Am     C
so here's words to the wise
C      
listen well my friends
G                    D
you should hold your tongue
C                        G                     
history books repeat themselves
             D
to prove you wrong

Chorus
