G              Am
That's how it's gotta be from now on
                  F
And the reason or rhyme
    D             G
For packing up or carrying on


[Chorus]
F                 Em
Inch by inch is a cinch
Dm                   Bm C
Yard by yard is much harder
Bm   C
Life without you baby is
Bm C
Harder
Bm       C
Life without you baby is hard


[Verse 2]
                     Dm
Is the moon going to shine?
    G                 C              Am
The moon's a piece of cake this time
                Am
One step out of line
 D                       G     Ab   G
Across my fingers it's a lucky sign


[Chorus]
F                 Em
Inch by inch is a cinch
Dm                   Bm C

Life without you baby is
Bm C
Harder
Bm       C
Life without you baby is hard


[Bridge]
                          Dm
You know the whole affair can be
Em
  Simply
F                       Am
Settled right from the start
F    Em
If we both see
Bb
There's no chance if we dance in the dark
F
Lose our way and we can't find a spark
C
Take one step any time

It's easy
C
Ready get set off your mark
              F
One step at a time
       G              Am
That's how it's gotta be from now on
                   Dm
Ain't committing a crime
   D               G       Ab    G
Or parking where I don't belong


[Chorus]
F                 Em
Inch by inch is a cinch
Dm                   Bm C
Yard by yard is much harder
Bm   C
Life without you baby is
Bm C
Harder
Bm       C
Life without you baby is hard
