Key: Eb

-7*   7 -7*  7 -7*  7  -7*   5
Life is just a bowl of cher-ries
5       5   5  5* 5* 5*
Don't make it ser-i-ous, 
5*      5*  5* -5 -5 -5
Life's too mys-ter-i-ous
7*   8     7*   8
You work, You save,
-9  -9*-7* -7*
You wor-ry so
8   -7*   7*   7*   7     7*
But you can't take your dough 
-7*   7*  7 -5*  -6
When you go, go, go
-3* -7* 7  -7*   7   -7*   7  -7*  5
So keep re-peat-ing "It's the ber-ries."
-7*   8*    8*  7   7    8
The strong-est oak must fall
-9   -9*    8    -7  -6*
The sweet things in life 
-9* -9  -7*  7     6
To you were just loaned
-9  8   7*  -6  -5
So how can you lose 
-5*     7   -6 -5*  -6
What you've nev-er owned
-7*   7  -7* 7  -7* 7   8    7
Life is just a bowl of cher-ries
8   -9*  8    8  -7* 8  -9*
So live and laugh at it all!
