Life Goes On – 방탄소년단 BTS Guitar Tab

Life Goes On by BTS is such a comfortable song to listen to, especially during times when I feel I had a bad day. The song seems to have a healing effect, and reminds me that no matter how the day has gone, life still goes on.

The title track from BTS’ latest album, “BE”, it did take me some time to get used to this song. It was probably in the last 2 weeks or so that I came to like it.

I love the soothing melody and the song arrangement with uncomplicated drum beats and guitars.

The chords are easy to play on the guitar too.

There are several versions of the music video – on my pillow, in the forest, like an arrow – and here’s the official one:

And here are the lyrics in English:

Life Goes On

One day the world stopped
Without any warning
Spring didn’t know to wait
Showed up not even a minute late
Streets erased of footprints
I lie here, fallen to the ground
Time goes by on its own
Without a single apology

It looks like rain again today
I’m soaked to the bone
Still won’t stop
Running faster than that cloud of rain
Thought that’d be enough
Guess I’m only human after all
I’m in a world of pain
This cold the world gave to me
Prompts me to press the dust-covered rewind
Dancing off-beat lying on the ground
Once winter comes, let’s exhale
A warmer breath

There’s no end in sight
Is there a way out?
My feet refuse to move oh
Close your eyes for a moment
Hold my hand
To that future, let’s run away

Like an echo in the forest
The day will come back around
As if nothing happened
Yeah life goes on
Like an arrow in the blue sky
Another day flying by
On my pillow, on my table
Yeah life goes on
Like this again

Let me tell you with this song
People say the world has changed
But thankfully between you and me
Nothing’s changed

With the "annyeong" that we start and finish the day
Let us thread tomorrow with today
Stopped for now but don’t hide in the shadow
Once again daylight will glow

There’s no end in sight
Is there a way out?
My feet refuse to move oh
Close your eyes for a moment
Hold my hand
To that future, let’s run away

Like an echo in the forest
The day will come back around
As if nothing happened
Yeah life goes on
Like an arrow in the blue sky
Another day flying by
On my pillow, on my table
Yeah life goes on
Like this again

I remember
I remember
I remember
I remember
