Symphony

[Intro] G  C

                 G
Ever since I was young
                  G
Coming up, coming up
                     G
Always marching to a drum
                   G
Bra-da-dum, Bra-da-dum
                  C
Always focused on me
             C
One one, one one
                        C
Now I wish that I could hold 
someone, someone

                  G
So tell my mom, I love her
             G
Call my baby sister
                     G
Should've hugged and kissed her
                      G
Cause life is just a mystery
         C
And it's gone before you know it
          C
So if you love me, won't you show 
it?

G
  Cause this life is one big 
symphony
G                                C
  This night is one for you and me
                    C
I'm the strings and you're the 
timpani
                   D     G
You're my constant tambourine
G
 This life is one big symphony
G                         C
So glad I got you next to me
                                  C
I'm the chords and you're the melody
                    D     G
This life's one big symphony

            G
She was the piano, I'm the xylophone
                 G               
You can have the trumpet, I'm the 
     C
saxophone
                  G
Life's a skipping rope
                 G
Keep going, keep going
                      G
Find a silence in the note
                  G
Dote, dote, dote, dote
                           C
Had to struggle when I was broke
           C
So low, so low
                      C
Writing music just to cope
            C
No hope, no hope

                       G
Yeah, life is just perspective
                     G
Laughing when you've wrecked it
                 G
Smiling when you kept it together

You weathered the storm
       C
At the end of the play
    C
You sang all the way
C
Doesn't matter how off-key
       D
If you did it, your way

G
  Cause this life is one big 
symphony
G                                C
  This night is one for you and me
                    C
I'm the strings and you're the 
timpani
                   D     G
You're my constant tambourine
G
 This life is one big symphony
G                         C
So glad I got you next to me
                                  C
I'm the chords and you're the melody
                    D     G
This life's one big symphony

G
 Would you care if I played you the 
flute?
     G                           
See, it's my favorite one because 
                      C
it's so delicate and beautiful
               C                
I pull out the trombone if it is 
      D
more suitable
G
 Wanna make you smile
                   G
It's been a little while since I've 
seen the white of your teeth
       C
Been a hard year, lucky the guitar's
 here

[Solo] G  C  D  G  C

C                    D     G
Life is just one big symphony
G
 This life is one big symphony
G                              C
 This night is one for you and me
                    C
I'm the strings and you're the 
timpani
                   D     G
You're my constant tambourine
G
 This life is one big symphony
G                         C
So glad I got you next to me
                                  C
I'm the chords and you're the melody
                    D
This life's one big symphony
