Tom : G
G Em C D
[Verse 1]
G Em
All I need is a head full of hope
C D
And a love and a home and a car and a loan
G Em C D
And I wish I had a pocket full of gold
[Verse 2]
G Em
All I need is a laugh and a drink and a couch and a shrink
C D
And a moment to think
G Em C D
And I wish I had a pocket full of gold

So throw your sticks and throw your stones
C D
'Cause you ain't gonna break my bones
[Chorus]
G Em
If I'm a sinner then I don't feel ashamed
C D G
Life goes on and if I'm wrong I guess I'll burn in flames

Been up the river and I've been down the drain

Life goes on and if I'm wrong I guess I'll burn in flames
[Whistles]
G Em C D
[Verse 3]

All I need is a hand I can hold

and a crowd at the show and a rhyme and a flow
G Em C D
And I wish I had a pocket full of gold
[Verse 4]
G Em
All I need is a job that I love and some friends at the pub
C D
and a night full of fun
G Em C D
While searching for a pocket full of gold

Unless the moon explodes and the sun goes cold

Through the highs and lows

Where the best all go
[Bridge 2x 2x]

Life will always and always goes on
G Em
Na na na na na, na na na na na

Life will always, life will always go on
[Chorus]

If I'm a sinner then I don't feel ashamed
C D G
Life goes on and if I'm wrong I guess I'll burn in flames
G Em
Been up the river and I've been down the drain
C D G
Life goes on and if I'm wrong I guess I'll burn in flames
C D
I guess I'll burn in flames
G Em
Been up the river and I've been down the drain
C G
I guess I'll burn in flames
