                          G#m
It takes a crane to build a crane
                       C#m
It takes two floors to make a story
                          E
It takes an egg to make a hen
                          Em
It takes a hen to make an egg
                             B    F#
There is no end to what I'm saying

It takes a thought to make a word
And it takes some words to make an action
And t takes some work to make it work
It takes some good to make it hurt
It takes some bad for satisfaction

Chorus:
G#m                  C#m
La la la la la la la life is wonderful
F#                    B          F#  
Ah la la la la la la life goes full circle
G#m                  C#m
Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
F#
Al la la la la

It takes a night to make it dawn
And it takes a day to make you yawn, brother
And it takes some old to make you young
It takes some cold to know the sun
It takes the one to have the other

And it takes no time to fall in love
But it takes you years to know what love is
And it takes some fears to make you trust
It takes those tears to make it rust
It takes the dust to have it polished, yeah

Chorus:
Ah la la la la la la, life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la, life goes full circle
Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la
Life is so... (Life is so)

It takes some silence to make sound
It takes a loss before you found it
And it takes a road to go nowhere
It takes a toll to make you care
It takes a hole to make a mountain

Chorus:
Ah la la la la la la, life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la, life goes full circle
Ha la la la la la, life is wonderful
Ha la la la la la, life is meaningful
Ha la la la la la, life is wonderful
Ha la la la la la, life, it is so wonderful

It is so meaningful
It is so wonderful
It is meaningful
It is wonderful
It is meaningful
It goes full circle
Wonderful
Meaningful
Full circle
Wonderful
