E Working at a nightclub that was called The Avenue E The barmen 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] 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 you're 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 you're going your own way. [Verse 2] 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] 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 you're 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 you're going your own way. [Bridge] 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 [Chorus] 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 you're 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 you're going your own way.
