Lyrics James Taylor - Secret Of Life
i
A Esus A Esus
the secret of life is enjoying the passage of time
A Esus
any fool can do it
A Esus
there ain’t nothing to it
Dmaj7 C#m7
nobody knows how we got to
F#7 C#m7 F#7
the top of the hill
Bm7 D/E E/F#
but since we’re on our way down
Bm7 D/E E/F#
we might as well enjoy the ride
ii
A Esus A Esus
the secret of love is in opening up your heart
A Esus
it’s okay to feel afraid
A Esus
but don’t let that stand in your way
Dmaj7 C#m7 F#7 C#m7 F#7
cause anyone knows that love is the only road
Bm7 D/E E/F#
and since we’re only here for a while
Bm7 D/E E/F#
we might as well show some style
A Esus
cmon , give us a smile
chorus
Dmaj7
isn’t it a lovely ride
C#m7 F#7
sliding down , gliding down
Bm7 D/E E/F#
try not to try too hard
A
it’s just a lovely ride
iii
A Esus
now the thing about time is that time
A Esus
isn’t really real
A Esus
it’s just your point of view
A Esus
how does it feel for you
Dmaj7 C#m7
einstein said he could never
F#7 C#m7 F#7
understand it all
Bm7 D/E E/F#
planets spinning through space
Bm7 D/E E/F#
the smile upon your face
A Esus
now welcome to the human race
chorus ii
Dmaj7
