G C D
The story of my life
[Verse 1]
G C D
High School seemed like such a blur
G C D
I didn't have much interest in sports or school elections
G C D
And in class I dreamed all day 'bout a rock & roll
G C D
weekend.
[Verse 2]
G C D
And the girl in the front of the room
G C D
So close yet so far you know she never seemed to notice
G C D
That this silly schoolboy crush wasn't just pretend
G C D
Ahhh ahh ah-ahhh
[Chorus]
G C D
Life goes by so fast
G C D
you only wanna do whatcha think is right.
G C D
Close your eyes and its past.
G C D
Story of my liiiiiiiiiife.
G C D
Story of my life
G C D
Story of my life
G C D
Story of my life
[Verse 3]
G C D
Well I went down to the old neighborhood
G C D
the faces had all changed there's no one there left to talk to
G C D
and the pool hall I loved as a kid
G C D
is now a 7/11.
[Verse 4]
G C D
Well I went downtown to look for a job
G C D
I had no training no experience to speak of
G C D
and I looked at the holes in my jeans and turned and headed
G C D
back.
[Chorus]
G C D
Life goes by so fast
G C D
you only wanna do whatcha think is right.
G C D
Close your eyes and its past.
G C D
Story of my liiiiiiiiiife.
G C D
Story of my life
G C D
Story of my life
G C D
Story of my life
[Solo]
G C D x12
[Verse 5]
G C D
Good time come and good times go.
G C D
I only wish the good times would last a little longer.
G C D
And I think about the good times we had
G C D
and why they had to end...........
[Verse 6]
G C D
So I sit at the edge of my bed
G C D
I strum my guitar and I sing an outlaw love song.
G C D
Thinking about what you're doing now
G C D
and when your coming back.
[Chorus]
G C D
Life goes by so fast
G C D
you only wanna do whatcha think is right.
G C D
Close your eyes and its past.
G C D
Story of my liiiiiiiiiife.

You're missing half of the first verse, after rock 'n roll weekend it goes:
And the girl in the front of the room
So close yet so far y'know she never seemed to notice
That this silly schoolboy crush
Wasn't just pretend
+13

There are two D's instead of just one, but otherwise perfect. Oh, another thing, Mike always tunes 1/2 step down and on this song he capoed the 2nd fret.
+5

Sorry?? Wha??? I'm a bit confused. Tune down half a step AND capo on the second fret??
Any reason why not just place the capo at the first fret?
