Verse 1
Amy Macdonald: Barrowland Ballroom : This Is The Life
[Intro] G
Verse
Oh the [G]lights outside they're as bright as the sun
They're much [C]brighter than anyone
Oh the [G]girls in the queue yes they're waiting for you
Well they're [C]waiting for their song to be sung
Pre-Chorus
And when the [Am]night turns to day and all the [C]people go away
It's not the [G]same, tell me who's to [D]blame?
And when the [Am]stars shine so bright on the [C]cold December night
I wish that [G]I was on the [D]stage
Chorus
Oh [Am]won't you take a ride with me
Through the [D]Barrowland history
And [G]I'll sing you a song or [C]two
[Am]People they may stop and stare but [D]baby I just don't care
[G]It's only me and [C]you
And the [Am]drink and dance and drugs you know
It's [D]all part of the show we go to
[G]Maybe I should tell [C]you
That [Am]people they may stop and stare but [D]baby I just don't care
[C]Tonight, it's only[D] me and [G]you
[Verse] same as 1st
Oh nothing beats the feeling of the high Barrowland ceiling
When the band start to play
Won't you buy me a drink and I'll tell her what I think if she gets in my
way
Pre-Chorus
And when the [Am]night turns to day and all the [C]people go away
It's not the [G]same, tell me who's to [D]blame?
And when the [Am]stars shine so bright on the [C]cold December night
I wish that [G]I was on the [D]stage
Chorus
Oh [Am]won't you take a ride with me
Through the [D]Barrowland history
And [G]I'll sing you a song or [C]two
[Am]People they may stop and stare but [D]baby I just don't care
[G]It's only me and [C]you
And the [Am]drink and dance and drugs you know
It's [D]all part of the show we go to
[G]Maybe I should tell [C]you
That [Am]people they may stop and stare but [D]baby I just don't care
[C]Tonight, it's only[D] me and [G]you
G until bridge
Bridge
And when the [Am]night turns to day and the [D]lights they fade away
I wish that [G]love and life would [C]pass me by
And when the [Am]band stops a song because there's [D]something going on
Well there is [G]magic in the air I [C]swear
And I [Am]wish that I saw Bowie, [D]playing on that stage
I [C]wish that I saw something, to [D]make me come of age
Play Am D G C until chorus over lead:
Chorus
Oh [Am]won't you take a ride with me
Through the [D]Barrowland history
And [G]I'll sing you a song or [C]two
[Am]People they may stop and stare but [D]baby I just don't care
[G]It's only me and [C]you
And the [Am]drink and dance and drugs you know
It's [D]all part of the show we go to
[G]Maybe I should tell [C]you
That [Am]people they may stop and stare but [D]baby I just don't care
[C]Tonight, it's only[D] me and [G]you
