Standard (EADGBE)

Bridge

Verse

For the sun

For the light

For the ride and for the masters

We come to be kind

To be warm here and after

We've been out

But we're back

Because we're graced in these matters

 And we'll rise.

And we did a little love

But we walked

We make a sound for the mesto

Make a little call to the right

to the ball and to the mast-top

Bridge

And we

We fool around now and again

We're looking good

But just as friends

Chorus

 And this is our heyday baby yeah

 And we're not gonna be afraid to shout

 'Cause we can make our heyday last forever

 And ain't that what it's all about

 Oh living, in our own terrible way.

Verse

And we lack a little love, but a sign

A sign to get a little messed up

Picking up the rules, for the chimes

Making up minds and making it last us

'Cause we live alone, and now we're grown

And we know what we're after

And we'll rise

Bridge

We fool around now and again

We're looking good

But just as friends

Chorus

And this is our heyday baby yeah

And we're not gonna be afraid to shout

'Cause we can make our heyday last forever

And ain't that what it's all about

Oh living, in our own terrible way.

Verse

 And so we had ourselves a break

  (MUTE) (mute) (mute)

and we're done and we'll come to our senses

 and we'll rise

 and we'll rise (go up in step movement singing in octave)

Chorus

 And this is our heyday baby yeah

 And we're not gonna be afraid to shout

 'Cause we can make our heyday last forever

 And ain't that what it's all about

 Oh living, in our own terrible way.
