My Life Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Iris Dement
My Life

Capo on 3rd Fret

G   Bm          C                G
My life, it don't count for nothing.
G    Bm             C                G
When I look at this world, I feel so small.
G   Bm          C        G
My life, it's only a season:
G         Bm         C               G          
A passing September that no one will recall.

G      Bm       C       G
But I gave joy to my mother.
G      Bm       C       D
And I made my lover smile.
G              Bm             C           C/B       G
And I can give comfort to my friends when they're hurting.
G      Bm              C              G
And I can make it seem better for a while.


G    Bm       C                G
My life, it's half the way travelled,
G       Bm                   C                G
And still I have not found my way out of this night.
G       Bm         C          G
An' my life, it's tangled in wishes,
G       Bm                   C                G
And so many things that just never turned out right.


G      Bm       C       G
But I gave joy to my mother.
G      Bm       C       D
And I made my lover smile.
G              Bm             C           C/B       G
And I can give comfort to my friends when they're hurting.
G      Bm               C      G
And I can make it seem better 
G      Bm           C      G
I can make it seem better,
G      Bm           C            G
I can make it seem better for a while.

G    C
Oh, oh oh. 
G    
Oh oh.

This is a great song for guitar, but she performs it on
the piano.  Someone with a better ear may want to review
these chords because I probably made some mistakes along
the way. Have fun!
