Amy MacDonald
Let's Start A Band - This Is The Life
Capo 4th fret
[Intro]
AmFCE
       x2
[Verse 1]
Am                              F
Put a ribbon round my neck and call me a libertine
C                          E
I will sing you songs of dreams I used to dream
Am                           F
I will sail away on seas of silver and gold
C                 E
Until I reach my home
Am                       F
Give me a guitar and I'll be your troubadour
C                             E
Your strolling minstrel 12th century door to door
         Am                     F                      C
I don't know anymore, if that feeling is past will it last
                    E
Oh, how can you be sure?
[Chorus]
     F                        G                 Am
And how do I know if you're feeling the same as me?
     F                          G                      Am    E
And how do I know if that's the only place you want to be?
[Verse 2]
Am                        F
Give me a stage and I'll be your rock and roll queen
C                                E
Your 20th century cover of a magazine
Am                         F
Rolling Stone here I come, watch out everyone
     C               E
I'm singing, I'm singing my song
Am                          F
Give me a festival and I'll be your Glastonbury star
C                             E
The lights are shining everyone knows who you are
Am                                 F
Singing songs about dreams, about hopes, about schemes
C                      E     E7
Ooooh, they just came true
[Chorus]
     F                        G                 Am
And how do I know if you're feeling the same as me?
     F                          G                      Am
And how do I know if that's the only place you want to be?
     F                        G                 Am
And how do I know if you're feeling the same as me?
     F                          G                      Am    E
And how do I know if that's the only place you want to be?

F G Am C
F G Am E
F G Am E7
[Outro]
F                                     G
And if you want it too, then there's nothing left to do:
               Am
Let's start a band
Let's start a band
               C
Let's start a band
Let's start a band

Let's start a band
Let's start a band
               C
Let's start a band
Let's start a band
F                                     G
And if you want it too, then there's nothing left to do:
               Am
Let's start a band
Let's start a band
               C
Let's start a band
Let's start a band
F                                     G              Am
And if you want it too, then there's nothing left to do
