*****DO NOT ADD STRUMMING PATTERNS TO MY TABS*****
Suzzy And Maggie Roche - La Vie C'est La Vie
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[Intro]
C   D   G
[Verse 1]
On Csummer afternoons I sit
QuiDescent by you in the Gpark
And Cidly watch the sunbeams guild
And Ctint the Gash trees' Bmbark_C__
[Verse 2]
Or else I watch the squirrels frisk
And chatter in the grassy lane
And Emall the while I mark your voiceBm  
Breaking Amwith love and pain
[Verse 3]
I Cknow a woman who would give
Her Dchance of heaven to take my Gplace
To Csee the love-light in your eyes
The Dlove-glow on your Bmface_C__
[Verse 4]
And there's a man whose lightest word
Can set my chilly blood afire
FulEmfilment of his least behestBm  
Defines Ammy life's desire
[Verse 5]
But Ghe will none of me, Nor I
Of you, Nor you of her, 'Tis said
The Cworld is full of jests like these
I Dwish that I Cwere Bmdead__C__

Quiescent by you in the park

And idly watch the sunbeams guild

And tint the ash trees' bark___

Or else I watch the squirrels frisk

And chatter in the grassy lane

And all the while I mark your voice

Breaking with love and pain

I know a woman who would give

Her chance of heaven to take my place

To see the love-light in your eyes

The love-glow on your face___

[Verse 4]

And there's a man whose lightest word

Can set my chilly blood afire
