Our Lives Go On (Lyrics and Chord Progression)

Newly completed song.  This is one I had to wait on for a while...

 

D
I have things
I need to do
                BM 

I have no time
                G  
to cry for you
                A
the world outside

             BM
it doesn't care 
                      G       A
that your not there

D
There is no note
 Someone could write
                 BM
that would stop 
                     G
the march of time
                 D
My love is real
                 A
My love is gone
                    D   G  D
Our lives go on

D

September shoes
they go to school
                         BM
they need new clothes
                     G
and coats to use
                          A
cause when it's cold
                    BM
they look to me
                      G         A
to keep them warm
D
and how wish
that it was true
                   BM
that I could share 
                   G
this all with you
                 D
My love is real
                  A
My love is gone
                     D  G  D
Our lives go on.

Bridge
                      BM
and the wind blows
                    G     A   D
the way the wind will blow

                     BM
and the earth it turns
                    G     A   D
the way the earth will turn
                BM           G
and not a tear in the world 
                 D
will feed a child
     A                                 G      A
or pay a bill that must be paid

And so these flowers
that I leave 
and the times
I stop and grieve
they give me strength
and help me do
the work of two
and oh, my love 
I won’t forget
and I swear
I’ll do my best
My love is real
my love is gone
our lives go on
My love is real
My love is gone
                       D   G   D
Our lives go on
