Life Of Wine And Roses

	  		     (C) Once I lived a life of (F) wine and (C)Roses. 
     I (G7) drank a lot back then for one (C) concern. 
     Success for me lay (F) just around the corner.  I 
     thought my (G7) social friends would help me make 
     the (C) turn. 
 
     
       (C) Now I'm paying for the (F) days of 
     wine and (C) and roses.  A (G7) victim of the 
     drunken life I (C) chose.  Now all my social 
     (F) friends look down their (C) noses.  Cause I 
     (G7) kept the wine and through away the (C) rose.
 
 
     Interlude:  (C F, C, G7, C) 
 
     (C) I stood by and watched the (F) bottle take 
     (C) control of me.  The (G7) turn I made was not 
     the one I (C) planned.  And I watched my social 
     (F) standing slip (C) away from me.  While I 
     (G7) watched the bottle slowly take (C) command. 
     (repeat chorus)
