verse 1: 

F                            C 
   You were built to last a lifetime 
F                            C 
   Just not the life that you live 
Am             Dm 
   You don't have to make it worse 
               Bb                C 
  'Cause the world isn't perfect 
Am                  Dm 
   And you don't need to give a toss 
                    Bb                 C 
   But you'd make it better if you did

   You were made to be lovin' 
F                                 C 
   Not a source of bitterness and hate 
Am                 Dm 
   And when you turn them on yourself 
               Bb                  C

Am             Dm 
   Make the best of here and now 
             Bb            C 
   Heaven or hell can wait 
                C             C                C 
   They'll wait, they'll wait, let 'em wait...

   You can stop viewing life as tragedy 
Bb                                 Dm 
   Give it a few more years and look from this angle 
                  G                 F          C 
   Where it looks more and more and more like comedy

   Where it looks more and more and more like comedy

Am          Dm 
   Misery comes around enough 
               Bb               C 
   You don't need to invite him 
Am                  Dm 
   And when he leaves you should grab 
              Bb           C 
   All the joy you can get 
               C            C            C 
   You can get, you can get, you can get

   Give it a few more years and look from this angle
