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