This Thing Called Life - Edit

Oh, six strings
Three chords
Big dreams

And he don't let me down when the days of rain came
He was there for me when I was in pain
When I needed a call, he was the real friend
Oh, he got the words when I'm feeling low
Like a skimming stone, like a rainbow
He's my brother when I'm down and I'm in luck
He's my brother when I'm down and I'm outta luck

You know it's only love
So let's come together
Little redemptive pleasure, ooh

Let's do this thing called life
Let's do this thing (let's try)
Let's try again (ooh, let's try)
Let's try
Let's do this thing called life
Let's do this thing (let's try)
Let's try again (ooh, let's try)
Let's try

You don't have to swim with the tide
Swim against the tide and find some hand to hold
Find somebody to show the light
Oh, they're out there in the matrix tonight
Oh, man, I've seen so many pages
Of stories that have floated down rivers
In the papers, gets lost, yeah
In the sea, in the ocean, Lord, I'm a giver

Oh
It's just a feeling
It's just a feeling
It's just a feeling
It's just a feeling, oh

Let's do this thing called life
Let's do this thing (let's try)
Let's try again (ooh, let's try)
Let's try
Let's do this thing called life
Let's do this thing (let's try)
Let's try again (ooh, let's try)
Let's try

You gotta learn to swim against the tide
You gotta learn to drop your foolish pride
You gotta learn that drugs don't really work
Unless you know the ones that hurt
Oh, babe, let's do it again
I wanna put the record on, wanna live it again
I wanna rewind the tape, turn off the clocks
This is my life, undo these locks

Let's do this thing called life
Let's do this thing (let's try)
Let's try again (ooh, let's try)
Let's try

Cheers my brother, my sister
My father, my mother, oh

Come on
Let's do this thing called life
Let's do it again (let's try)
Let's try again (ooh, let's try)
Let's try
Let's do this thing called life
And when you feel the pain, oh, let's try
Let's try again (ooh, let's try)
Let's try

Let's do this thing called life
Let's do this thing (let's try)
Let's try again (ooh, let's try)
Let's try
