Words / Music: T. Grose

Life's hard - no joke! Like a chain around your throat

Slave to the life out on the streets

You're down, but not out - you're tryin' to break out from here

But it calls you back again...

PRE-CHORUS

You say, 'Leave me be, I just need a little time.'

Yeah - time to die in a concrete grave!

You can say 'Just let me live my life.'

This is it - it's all you get! You only get...

CHORUS 1:

One shot, one shot at life - don't let it pass you by

One shot, one shot at life - you only get one shot at life...

No light with the dawn. No future, can go on - all lies!

Your life is in you hands

You want to die, you want to quit. Wake up - that's just a pile of shit!

If you want to break free, you've got to try...

REPEAT PRE-CHORUS

CHORUS 2:

One shot, one shot at life - don't let it pass you by

One shot, one shot at life - it's gone if you don't try

One shot, one shot at life - make a stand and reach for the sky

One shot, one shot at life - you only get one shot at life...

SOLO: Tim / Dale

REPEAT CHORUS 2 x 2
