Lyrics for 'My Life' by 'Phil Ochs'
Pre>intro: G / C / D / C / G / C

D G D
My Life Was Once A Joy To Me,
G / C / G
Never Knowing, I Was Growing, Everyday.
D G D
My Life Was Once A Toy To Me,
Em
And I Wound It And I Found It Ran Away.
Am
So I Raced Through The Night
G
With A Face At My Feet, Like A God I Would Write,
F
All The Melodies Were Sweet, And The Women Were White.
E d
It Was Easy To Survive, My Life Was So Alive.

My Life Was Once A Flag To Me
And I Waved It And Behaved Like I Was Told.
My Life Was Once A Drag To Me
And I Loudly, And I Proudly, Lost Control
I Was Drawn By A Dream
I Was Loved By A Lie, Every Serf On The Scene
Begged Me To Buy.
But I Slipped Through The Scheme
So Lucky To Fail
My Life Was Not For Sale.

My Life Is Now A Myth To Me
Like The Drifter, With His Laughter In The Dawn.
My Life Is Now A Death To Me
So I'll Mold It And I'll Hold It Till I'm Born
So I Turned To The Land
Where I'm So Out Of Place
Throw A Curse On The Plan
In Return For The Grace
To Know Where I Stand
Take Everything I Own
Take Your Tap From My Phone
And Leave My Life Alone
My Life Alone.
