A cool laid back track from the talents of Catfish, Zax and Thunder. Lovely soulful playing from you guys.

And..Frank's mix is out of this world.

I really like how this song turned out, warm and relaxed.

Mellow down easy!

Andy


Life Goes On (Lyric: Gareth/Andy/PVD)

E
I remember a time
When my heart was young and free
  F#m
I loved the world
                       E
And the world embraced me

Verse2:
Now I’m some years older
There’s many a shade of grey
Cobwebs on my mind
That I can’t wish away

Bridge1:
G#m        A      
Then I realized
G#m                    A
Life doesn’t fit one size
G#m                   A                    B
There’ll always be many sides to a story

Chorus:
                   E
But life will go on
              F#m
Life goes on
                     E                          
And Life will go on
                F#m
Life will go on

Bridge2:

      G#m                A
The wind was at my back
   C#m                    B
I went where ever it blew
F#m              A                         B
Now it’s in my face it’s hard to get through

Solo: Over intro chords

Bridge3: (same chords as bridge2)
There are times I wonder
About the choices made
When you come to the cross roads
There’s four ways to go

Outro Chorus:

E
But life will go on
              F#m
Life goes on
                     E                          
And Life will go on
                 F#m
Life will go on

Life will go on
