-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!

REPEAT
