My Life - artist Billy Joel D G Got a call from an old friend weʼd used to be real close A D Said he couldnʼt go on the American way G Closed the shop, sold the house, bought a ticket to the west coast A D Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L.A. D I donʼt need you to worry for me cause Iʼm [G]alright A D I donʼt want you to tell me itʼs time to come home G I donʼt care what you say anymore this is my life A Bm Go ahead with your own life leave me alone F# I never said you had to offer me a second chance D7 E7 I never said I was a victim of circumstance G D I still belong F# Bm Donʼt get me wrong E7 And you can speak your mind G A G A But not on my time D G They will tell you you canʼt sleep alone in a strange place A D Then theyʼll tell you canʼt sleep with somebody else G Ah but sooner or later you sleep in your own space A D Either way itʼs O.K. you wake up with yourself D I donʼt need you to worry for me cause Iʼm [G]alright A D I donʼt want you to tell me itʼs time to come home G I donʼt care what you say anymore this is my life A Bm Go ahead with your own life leave me alone
