D#A#CmG#D#A# Am*
[Verse 1]D#A#CmG#
Yeah, I may go through this life never knowing who I am
D#A#CmG#
Or why I'm here, or why I'm doing what I'm doing
D#A#
I guess I'll just go with whatever my name is
CmG#D#
And take for word everything I've learned from my father
G* C*
And my father's father
[Chorus]D#A#
And they were making it up, making it all up
CmG#
What else can we do?
D#A#
Yeah, we're making it up, we're making it all up
CmG#
It's the only way to get through
D#G
'Cause life's so hard but life's alright
CmG#
Because I'm here with you tonight
D# G* D#A#
Making it up, making it all up
[Verse 2]D#A#CmG#
Some people think the world revolves around them
D#A#CmG#
And their beautiful child
D#GCm
Some people like to pile things up around them
G#D#A# Am*
And surround themselves with a beautiful lie
[Chorus]D#A#
And we're making it up, making it all up
CmG#
What else can we do?
D#A#
Yeah, we're making it up, we're making it all up
CmG#
It's the only way to get through
D#G
'Cause life's so hard but life's alright
CmG#
Because I'm here with you tonight
D#A#
Making it up, making it all up
[Instrumental]
(C, A#, Cm, F) x2
[Bridge]D#A#Cm
And there's more to this life
G#D#
More than what you see
A#Cm
And it's true what they say
G#D#
That life is but a dream
GCm
So row your boat gently
G#D#
Gently down that stream
A# Am*
And keep dreaming your dream
[Chorus]D#A#
And keep on making it up, making it all up
CmG#
What else can we do?
D#A#
Yeah, we're making it up, we're making it all up
CmG#
It's the only way to get through
D#G
'Cause life's so hard but life's alright
CmG#
Because I'm here with you tonight
D#A# C*
Making it up, making it all up
