>From the time she was thirteen, Julie Thompson had a dream 
     A                                  D 
That someday she would see her name in lights 
          A                          Bm7 
And after every high school play the grown-ups all would say 
     A                              D 
That Julie's future sure is looking bright 
      F#m7             E           D 
Well I saw her selling videos at a store in Eastland Mall 
      F#m7               E         D 
I said why aren't you in Hollywood taking casting calls 
Bm7                                     Esus E 
She handed me my change and started laughing 
 
 
Chorus 1: 
          A 
And said, life happened 
D             E               A 
Me and Bobby Chapman fell in love 
      D                   E 
Daddy passed away and the babies came 
   F#m7                       B 
And drama school was just too much 
                   D               Bm7 
Now there's little league and mouths to feed 
      D                              Esus E 
And I direct a kindergarten Christmas pageant 
     A 
Life happened

      A                        Bm7 
Curtis had an old Chevelle, the cops knew that car well 
         A                           D 
He never lost a race on Windy Hollow road 
       A                                  Bm7 
By the time he turned eighteen he was the Georgia dirt track king 
        A                         D 
Proudly sponsored by the local Texaco 
        F#m7         E                   D 
I bumped into him at Murphy's bar and he ordered us a round 
      F#m7               E          D 
I said why aren't you in Rockingham chasing Gordon down 
Bm7                                               Esus E 
He killed his drink and tore the corners off his napkin 
 
 
Chorus 2: 
And said, life happened 
I was driving home from Athens late one night 
A trucker fell asleep and swapped paint with me 
Said I rolled that bed at least five times 
Now I thank my stars and I sell used cars 
And I teach driver's education at St. Catherine's 
Yeah life happened 
 
B  C#m 
 
          D 
I saw the rest of my old friends 
 
At our reunion at the Holiday Inn 
       A                  E          A  B C#m 
And it seemed like it was only yesterday 
        D 
Standing in the gym in our cap and gown 
        A 
Full of wonder, lust and glory bound 
      Bm7               C#m                D 
We set out to chase our dreams on wings of passion 
        Bm7                           Esus  E 
But somewhere along the way we got distracted 
 
 
Chorus 3: 
Life happened 
Our clothes went out of fashion with our songs 
We started families and bought SUV's 
Became step dads and soccer moms 
I finally realized we turned alright 
And we spent the night just catching up and dancing 
And life happened 
 
Ends on "A"
