Isn't Life Strange by The Moody Blues
Isn't Life Strange
C D7 Dm G C x2
C Dm G C Am
Isn't life strange, a turn of the page?
Dm G C
Can read like before, can we ask for more?
Dm G C Am
Each day passes by, how hard man will try
Dm
The sea will not wait;
G C G Am D Dm
You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry
C G Am G
Wished I could be in your heart,
F Em Dm G
To be one with your love
C G Am G
Wished I could be in your eyes,
F Em Dm G
looking back where you were;
F C
and here we are
C Dm G C Am
Isn't love strange, a word we arrange?
Dm G C
With no thought or care, maker of despair
Dm G C Am
Each breath that we breathe, with love we must weave
Dm
To make us as one;
G C G Am D Dm
You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry
C G Am G
Wished I could be in your heart,
F Em Dm G
To be one with your love
C G Am G
Wished I could be in your eyes,
F Em Dm G
looking back where you were;
F C
when we were young
C Dm G C Am
Isn't life strange, a turn of the page?
Dm G C
A book without light, unless with love we write
Dm G C Am
To throw it away, to lose just a day
Dm
The quicksand of time;
G C G Am D Dm
You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry
C G Am G
Wished I could be in your heart,
F Em Dm G
To be one with your love
C G Am G
Wished I could be in your eyes,
F Em Dm G
looking back where you were

Wished I could be in your heart,

To be one with your love

Isn't life strange
A turn of the page
Can read like before
Can we ask for more
Each day passes by
How hard man will try
The sea will not wait
You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry
Wish I could be in your heart
To be one with your love
Wish I could be in your eyes
Looking back there your were and here we are
Isn't love strange
A word we arrange
With no thought or care
Maker of despair
Each breath that we breathe
With love we must weave
To make us as one
You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry
Wish I could be in your heart
To be one with your love
Wish I could be in your eyes
Looking back there you were, and here we are
Isn't life starnge
A turn of the page
A book without light
Unless with love we write
To throw it away
To lose just a day
The quicksand of time
You know it makes me wqnt to cry cry, cry
Wish I could be in your heart
To be one with your love
Wish I could be in your eyes
Looking back there you were and here we are
