Em
Come in, babe
		        G
Across these purple fields
Em
The sun has sunk behind you
		         G
Across these purple fields
Em
That idiot-boy in the corner 
		         G
Is speaking deviated truths
Em
Come on, admit it, babe
It's a wonderful life
	     Am	   Am7
If you can find it
	     Em	   G
If you can find it
             Am    Am7
If you can find it
G	D	Em                 D
It's a wonderful life that you bring
		       Em
Ooh it's a wonderful thing

Speak our secret into your hands
And hold it in between
Plunge your hands into the water
And drown it in the sea
There will be nothing between us, baby
But the air that we breathe
Don't cry
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
If you can find it
If you can find it
If you can find it
It's a wonderful life that you bring
It's a wonderful, wonderful thing

We can build our dungeons in the air
And sit and cry the blues
We can stomp across this world 
With nails hammered through our shoes
We can join that troubled chorus 
Who criticise and accuse
It don't matter much 
We got nothing much to lose
But this wonderful life
If you can find it
And when you find it
And when you find it
It's a wonderful life that you bring
It's a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful thing

Sometimes our secrets are all we've got
With our lives we must defend
Sometimes the air between us, babe
Is unbearably thin
Sometimes it's wise to lay down your gloves
And just give in
Come in, come in
Come in, come in
To this wonderful life
If you can find it
And if you find it
It's a wonderful life that you bring
It's a wonderful, wonderful thing
It's a wonderful life
It's a wonderful life
