Biography:
Sam Roberts is a Canadian rock singer-songwriter, based in Montreal, Quebec. His 2001 debut release, The Inhuman Condition became one of the bestselling independent releases in Quebec and Canadian music history.
Born in Pointe-Claire, Quebec, he attended Loyola High School and McGill University. Roberts formed the band William in 1993. The band's name was changed to Northstar in 1996. Although the band gained some notice in independent rock circles, they couldn't break through to a national audience, and broke up in the late 1990s.

[Verse 1]
Dm
One life to live but we're doing it wrong
C G
You see, got my brother down cause it's nothing to me
Dm
Everyone saying that it's wrong to cheat
C G
But there's no other way to get my life on easy street
Dm
Someone else telling you what you're living for
C G
Been knocking you down, now you're looking for more
Dm
The only sound you hear is a closing door
C G
Been looking for peace but they're bringing you war
Dm
Rich man cryin' cause his money's time
C G
And poor man's smilin' cause he knows he ain't blind
Dm
There's a man over there says he's tougher than me
C G
But I got eyes that can see through fantasy
[Chorus]
Dm C G
I think my life is passing me by
Dm C G
I think my life is passing me by
[Verse 2]
Dm
Take it all back cause it don't mean nothing
C G
If you give it away and you're looking for something back
Dm
Wake up every morning when there's nothing there
C G
No reason to die but no reason to care
Dm
Someone else telling you what you're living for
C G
Been knocking you down now you're looking for more
Dm
The only sound you hear is a closing door
C G
Been looking for peace but they're bringing you war
Dm
One life to live but we're doing it wrong
C G
You see, got my brother down cause it's nothing to me
Dm
Rich man cryin' cause his money's time
C G
And poor man's smilin' cause he knows he ain't blind
[Chorus]
Dm C G
I think my life is passing me by
Dm C G
I think my life is passing me by
Dm
One life to live but we're doing it wrong
C G
You see, got my brother down cause it's nothing to me
Dm
