(Intro/Chorus)
[Bm] [D] [A] [G] [D] [A]
There's only One way Of Life and that's your own, your own, your own
[D] [F] [G]
(Verse)
[D]
My Father when I was younger took me up onto the hill
[F] [G]
That looked down upon the city smoke and above the factory spill
[D]
He said now this is where I come when I want to be free
[F] [G] [D]
Well he never was in his life time, but these words stuck with me (Hey!)
[D] [F] [G]
[D]
So I ran from all of this and climbed the highest hill
[F] [G]
& I looked down on to my life above the factory spill
[D]
I looked down onto my life ,was a family disgrace
[F] [G]
And all my friends, the starting line the wages off to chase
[F] [G]
And all my friends and all there jobs, all the bloody waste (coz)
[Bm] [D] [A] [G] [D] [A]
There's only One way Of Life and that's your own, your own, your own
[Bm] [D] [A] [G] [D] [A]
There's only One way Of Life and that's your own, your own, your own
D F G (X3)
(Middle 8)
D (Hold)
Well I grew up learnt to love and laugh circled A's on the under pass
[(F)] [(G)]
The noise we thought would never stop, Died a death as the punks grew up
D (Hold)
We choked on all our dreams we wrestled with our fears
[(F)] [(G)] [D]
Running through the heartless concrete streets, chasing our ideas (run!)
D F G (X3)
(Verse)
[D]
And all the problems of the world wont be solved by this guitar
[F] [G]
And they won't stop coming either by the life I've had so far
[D]
And the bright lights of my hone town wont be getting any dimmer
[F] [G]
Though their calling has receded like some old distant singer
[F] [G]
Though the don't look so appealing to the eyes of this poor sinner
(Chorus)
[Bm] [D] [A] [G] [D] [A]
There's only One way Of Life and that's your own, your own, your own
[Bm] [D] [A] [G] [D] [A]
There's only One way Of Life and that's your own, your own, your own
[A]
That's Your own
