D Bm A D
Book of love in front of me
G D A
Tries to bite my chin;
D Bm A D
Angel right behind my shoulder
G D A
Waits to Do me in;
Bm G
I wish I had a heart
Bm A
To walk me like a dog –
D A G D
But life’s a sweet thing,
G D
Going up in smoke.
Used to be a passenger,
Now they take me as their own;
Used to be a fisher-king
But now my cross is gone.
I wish I had some faith,
But all I Do is talk –
And life’s a sweet thing,
Going up in smoke.

I wish I had some faith,
But all I Do is talk –
And life’s a sweet thing,
Going up in smoke.
We could be engineers,
We could drive a coach;
Could be real New Age
With positive approach.
I wish I still could laugh,
I wish it was a joke –
But life’s a sweet thing,
Going up in smoke.
