No One Ever Said That Life Would Be Fair

C I walked downtown in the middle of the night F Tryna soak up those Broadway lights G C Wondering just where I was supposed to be C I walked into a store and bought a pair of boots F Past the honky tonks and the nudie suits G C Oh isn't life just one big mystery C I went down to the river to watch the fireflies F Got lost in the great big sparkling sky G C Pondering what kind of life I'm meant to lead F C All of us get lonely F C And all of us get lost Am C Somewhere in that night air G C No one ever said that life would be fair C I flew back to the Bay, what do you say F Everyone's just taking it day by day G C Paying their bills and doing their best to get by C I sit at work all day, collecting my pay F Doing what we can to keep the darkness away G C If only we could close our eyes and get high C It's a cruel cruel world, it'll take your soul F So pack up all your bags and get ready to go G C It's time for us to drift into the sky F C All of us get lonely F C And all of us get lost Am C Somewhere in that night air G C No one ever said that life would be fair
