E
Lisa likes brandy and the way it hits her lips,
E
She's a rock 'n' roll survivor with pendulum hips,
A
She's got deep brown eyes,
E
That've seen it all.
E
Working at a nightclub that was called The Avenue
E
The bar men used to call her "Little Lisa, Looney Tunes"
A
She went down,
E
on almost anyone.
F#m A
From the hard time living 'til the Chelsea days,
F#m B
From when her hair went sweet blonde 'til the day it turned grey
She said;
[CHORUS]
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/n/noah_and_the_whale/lifegoeson_crd_ver_5.html ]
E A
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
B A
You've got more than money and sense, my friend
E A B A
You've got heart, and your going your own way.
E A
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
B A
What you don't have now will come back again
E A B A
You've got heart, and your going your own way.
E
Some people wear their history like a map on their face,
E
And Joey was an artist just living out of case,
A E
But his best work, was his letters home.
E
His standard works of fiction about imaginary success,
E
The chorus girls in neon were his closest things to friends,
A E
But to a writer, the truth is no big deal.
F#m A
From the hard time living to the sleepless nights,
F#m B
And the black and blue body from the weekend fights
He'd say;
[Chorus]
C#m A E B
On my last night on earth, I won't look to the sky
E A C#m B
Just breathe in the air and blink in the light
C#m A E B
On my last night on earth, I'll pay a high price
E A E B
To have no regrets and be done with my life
[Repeat Chorus]
