| Am | G | C'est la | vie, have your | leaves all turned to brown |
|
| Am | G | Am | Will you | scatter them | around you, | C'est la vie |
|
| Am | G | Do you | love, and then | how am I to know |
|
| Am | G | Am | If you | don't let your love | show for me, | C'est la vie |
|
|
| | D | Am | D | Am | | | O-oh, c'est la | vie, | O-oh, c'est la | vie |
|
| | G | B | E | Am | | Who | knows, who | cares for | me, C'est la | vie |
|
|
In the night, do you light a lover's fire |
|
Do the ashes of desire for you remain |
|
Like the sea there's a love to deep to show |
|
Took a storm before my love flowed for you, C'est la vie |
|
|
Like a song, out of tune and out of time |
|
All I needed was a ryhme for you, C'est la vie |
|
Do you give, do you live from day to day |
|
Is there no song I can play for you, C'est la vie |
|
