Life Is Sweet

Am                 Em
It's a pity it's a crying shame
Am             Em
Who pulled you down again
Am          Em
How painful it must be
Am           Em     D
To bruise so easily inside

Am                 Em
It's a pity it's a downright crime
Am         Em
It happens all the time
Am                      Em
You want to stay little daddy's girl
Am                        Em     
You want to hide from the vicious
       D       G7
 world outside

C         G
Don't cry
             Am               Em
You know the tears will do no good
            F    G
So dry your eyes

         Am             Em
Oh, your daddy he's the iron man
Am                   Em
A battleship wrecked on dry land
Am                 Em
Your mamma she's a bitter bride
Am              Em            D
She'll never be satisfied you know
           G        G7
And that's not right

    C         G
But don't cry
             Am               Em
You know the tears will do no good
            F    G
So dry your eyes

It's dull it's slow it's painful

In your own mind

Am            Em
I've tried to comfort you
Am            Em             D
I've tried to tell you to be patient
     D7
That they are blind and they can't 
see

Am            Em
Fortune gonna come one day
Am                Em
They're all gonna fade away
Am             Em
Your daddy the war machine
Am                 Em    
And your momma the long and 
   D
suffering
G                            C
