MC 11 Life104bpm folky pop D D4 twiddle D9 You say you know where you’re going D D4 twiddle G Gm You say your aim is true D D4 twiddle D9 Just like that river that’s flowing G Asus 4 D Destiny’s waiting for you You say you know where you’re going You say your future is clear But you’ve know way of knowing What will or will not appear CG Life doesn’t run in straight lines CG Life doesn’t follow a plan BmF#m Things may work out sometimes G A GA Time just flies on, you can’t rely on G A A2/4 A It can be a try on, leaves you holding the can You say your future is waiting You say you see that shining star But don’t start celebrating ‘Till you are sure of just where you are
