This is just a first version of the first song i ever wrote. The piano accompainment is not from me. But I hope, soon there'll be a new version with my own accompainment and better singing

Theater of Life

Verse:

The Spotlight’s turned on, excitement is in the air (F)

Music starts to play, a man enters the stage, (F)

Wearing an old suit and funny, fuzzy hair (F)

He talks about a life full of wonders unseen (F)

Until he disappears behind a smoke screen (B)

 

Chorus:

Watching scenes passing by, (F)

Funny moments, times to cry, (F)

Barmen, bankers, thieves and clowns, (F)

Falling heroes, ups and downs, (F)

The game of Life (B)

 

Verse:

A killer with a big heart, princess with a knife (F)

Good girls going bad, Strangers become friends (F)

Theater’s like a break, a holiday from real life, (F)

You’re charmed by the fate, the people have to face (F)

And caught up in the feelings of pleasure or dismay (F)

 

Chorus:
Watching scenes passing by, (F)

Funny moments, times to cry, (F)

Barmen, bankers, thieves and clowns, (F)

Falling heroes, ups and downs, (F)

The game of Life (B)

 

Bridge:

Sometimes fiction seems so real (F)

And your real life may make you feel (F)

Like living in a horror film, (F)

But what you like to see on stage, (F)

In your life you try to evade, (F)

 

I’m sure you’d rather be solo (F)

Than end like Juliet and Romeo (F)

But you can’t choose the genre you’re in (F)
you just have to take what you get, (F)

Even if you’re nothing but the running gag (F)

 

 

Chorus 2x
...

Nothing but the game of Life (F)
