G F
Would you like to know a secret
Just between you and me
I don't know where I'm going next, I don't know
who I'm gonna be
C F G F
But that's the other side of this life I've been leading
C F G
That's the other side of this life.
G F
Well my whole world's in an uproar
My whole world's upside down
I don"t know where I'm going next
But I'm always bumming around
C F G F
But that's the other side of this life I've been leading
C F G
That's the other side of this life.
Well I don't know what I'm doing half the time, I don't know
where I'm gonna be
I think I'll get me a sailing boat and sail the
Gulf of Mexico
C F G F
But that's the other side of this life I've been leading
C F G
That's the other side of this life.
a special thanks to ingo hutzenlaub for the bass riff.
