From the dark end of the street

And into this life we're born

Baby, sometimes, sometimes we don't know why

In the twinkling of an eye

Help me share my load

To the bright side of the road
 
 
[Chorus]

And into this life we're born
      C                                    C7
Baby, sometimes, sometimes we don't know why
   F                           Fm
And time seems to go by so fast
D                      G      G7
In the twinkling of an eye
 
 
[Verse 4/Outro]
 
C        Em              F      G
Let's enjoy it while we can

And help me sing my song
