Intro
Dm F Gm C A7
[Verse 1]
Dm F
All my friends they rise for work each day,
Gm C A7
they take the mornin' train, never running late.
Dm F
Staring at the their screens they fade away,
Gm C A7
they take a coffee break just to stay awake.
[Pre-Chorus]
A# F
Don't you know there's more to life
A7 A# A7
than working all the time as the evenings fade.
[Chorus]
Dm F
People say we're wasting all our time,
Gm
searching for things we weren't meant to find
Am C A7
but that's all we have, so I don't mind.
Dm F
People say we'll lose a future sum
Gm
for living life while we are young.
Am C A7
Well, it's nice to say I'm the happy one.
[Verse 2]
Dm F
Father told me, son, don't make mistakes
Gm C A7
that I have made back in my day.
Dm F
But as I look upon his wearied face
Gm C A7
it speaks of all the places that he never stayed.
[Pre-Chorus]

Don't you know there's more to life

than working all the time as the evenings fade.
