Shrug It Off
(c) J. Murdock McInnes Vasey

[instrumental]

Move past it, shrug it off
You will still be here tomorrow
Don't expect to see a change
Too much hope is only sorrow

Learn to be a bigger man
Learn to handle what you can
What you can't, let it go by
You don't need to make her cry

[bridge]

Nothing to gain by being right
Not much to lose by being wrong
You don't want to win that fight
Try again, just play along

[chorus]
I could live without a home
I could go my way alone
But to leave her by herself
My heart would turn to stone

[instrumental]

This is the life you have
We never know what we are choosing
There may have been a time
But it went by, what's left is losing

What did you see in that expression?
What did she mean with that odd look?
You thought she would be happy
But that glance was all it took

[bridge]

Nothing to gain by being right
Not much to lose by being wrong
You don't want to win that fight
Try again, just play along

[chorus]
I could live without a home
I could go my way alone
But to leave her by herself
My heart would turn to stone

[instrumental]

I could live without a home
I could go my way alone
But to leave her by herself
My heart would turn to stone

My heart would turn to stone

My heart would turn to stone

[instrumental]
