It's A Wonderful Life Lyrics & Chords By Bandits Of The Acoustic Revolution

Once again I wake up alone
On the wrong side of my bed
And once again you begin your dancing nakedly
On the right side of my head
It's for a lack of better words
That I can hardly speak my soul
And I'm feeling, what I'm feeling, when I'm feeling
When it's time to lose control, my love
And once again we're off to war
But I can't agree with what we're fighting for
And that's not all
Because every time she smiles
I see her soul
And I smile: what a wonderful life!

It's true I used to try, but then I gave up
I learned it doesn't really matter
What I do ain't enough to
Appease or to please
All my well meaning deeds
Seem to all go up in smoke
And every time I look into these smoke filled skies
I wonder what she's doing
Why I volunteered to die
But tonight I will fight for my life
So I might see my wife
Again
I explained to her that I'd be back
When I gave my word
That the fighting wouldn't last
But despite my pact
I know that every breath I draw might be my last
And I smile: It's been a wonderful life!

God damn, another summer in the city and
I've never seen a girl look so pretty as you
When you smile oh you're wild for a while
I was hoping I might see you again
And I know that everyone is willing to go
And I find I'll turn it all and leave on a dime
If I leave tonight (Screw what's right)
I can make it home by dawn
And I was told "Boy, prepare for war"
But they failed to mention
What I'd be fighting for
So I fight for this:
The fact that as I pass away
I'll feel her kiss, and I'll smile:
What a wonderful life!
Me, oh my, what a wonderful life!
Oh, to die for such a wonderful life!
