Belle and Sebastian - Unnecessary Drama: Guitar Chords

              D#
I read your letter from before,
             F      C
you've been having so much fun
F          D#
And is it possible you're just
            F   C
telling me to draw me in
F            D#
There's an array of douchebags
           F   C
lining up to play their stupid parts
F           D#
And did you ever pause before you
           F
gave your love away

Chorus:
                C  Gm
And this is my life
               D#         F
But this is my so-called life
                C  Gm
But this is my life
               D#    F
And this is my only life

And when you came to me that summer,
you were just a shell
But you were holding close to mother,
she was ashen with the strain
And there was miles to go yet,
miles to build that sister loving bond
And then I figured that the music
set your soul ablaze

Chorus:
(And this is my life)
And it's probably not surprising
that you're burning through the days
(And this is my life)
And if I had a second encore,
I would probably do the same
(And this is my life)
And if the intimacy ever stops
(This is my so-called life)
I'll miss your stories, miss your letters
(This is my so-called life, and this is my life)
Ever awkward fumble should be framed
(This is my only life)

Enjoy the fervor of your love life,
'cause it doesn't last
And with a suddenness that is cruel,
everything can go to hell
But then you find a new path, leave
the old path, leave the games behind
And on a morning climb, you see
the grime and feel amazed

Chorus:
I know you felt you gave your best,
but it was never going to do
There's always going to be a younger
hungry idol coming through
I know it wasn't thrilling, just like living
You and me could talk like kissing
Every conversation was divine

And this is my life
This is my so-called life
This is my life
And this is my only life
And this is my life
This is my so-called life
This is my life
And this is my only life
And this is my life
This is my so-called life
This is my life
And this is my only life
And this is my life
This is my so-called life
This is my life
And this is my only life
