chord progression originally put to lyrics belonging to my best friend, later adapted
Lyrics
I played a game of life in vain
I knew I'd never win
I'd plot a graph through the bottom of a glass
Refraction of what I'd seen
I gave all I had to my guitar and pad
Not guessing where it would lead
A deep thinking boy, just playing with the toy...of life
To glory indeed
To life I would grin, between the tumble and the spin
To programme was never my aim
I'd just sit around and watch the ball rebound
Well they said that life's a game
A chosen child astray and wild
Brought home to be with you
Such amazing love from a stranger above
His son died for you
