C      Gm7  Bb    F       C  Gm7  Bb  F 
Cos' it's a bittersweet symphony this life 
           C         Gm7             Bb          F               C  Gm7  Bb  F 
Trying to make ends meet, you're a slave to the money then you die. 
               C       Gm7   Bb       F     C       Gm7  Bb  F 
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down 
             C         Gm7               Bb         F        C        Gm7  Bb  F 
You know the one that takes you to the places where all the pain lives 
 
 C                 Gm7           Bb            F 
No change, I can change, I can change, I can change, 
         C          Gm7         Bb         F 
But I'm here in my mould, I am here in my mould. 
           C                 Gm7        Bb              F 
But I'm a million different people from one day to the next 
              C         Gm7     Bb           F    (C  Gm7  Bb  F)  x2 
I can't change my mould no, no, no, no, no, no, no 
 
        C     Gm7         Bb       F       C       Gm7  Bb  F 
Well I never pray, but tonight I'm on my knees yeah 
           C         Gm7         Bb            F       C     Gm7  Bb  F 
I need to hear some sounds that recognise the pain in me yeah 
           C       Gm7           Bb        F             C     Gm7  Bb  F 
I let the melody shine, let it cleanze my mind, I feel free now 
        C              Gm7              Bb     F          C    Gm7  Bb  F 
but the airwaves are clean and there's nobody singing to me now          Coro 
 
             C      Gm7  Bb    F       C  Gm7  Bb  F 
Cos' it's a bittersweet symphony this life. 
           C         Gm7             Bb        F              C  Gm7  Bb  F 
Trying to make ends meet, trying to find some money then you die.
