Exercise to stay alive
Em D7
Another year has gone and passed you by

G6 G13/F
Waking up to coffee cup
Em D7
Stretch it off, rip it up

When the old man gets to see it

He’ll be whistling

All his worries away

But you won’t, will you boy

It’s not what you want, is it boy

Exercise another way
Em D7
To live your life, some other day ahead

You decide to rise up from your bed
G6 G13/F Em D7

Your belief in all this nonsense is done
G6 G13/F Em D7
