Tonart: Eb major
Verse 1
D
A
Bm
D
The other day when we were walking
A
by the graveyard near the house
You asked me if I thought
D
Bm
we would ever die
D
And if life and love both fade
We've made ourselves a kind
Verse 2
us like corpses
A
Lying side by side in pieces
In some dark and lonely plot
D
We looked so silly there all decomposed
tattered clothes
Though we probably look
just as silly now
Bm
Verse 3
G
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye,
D
A
bye to all this dog- eared innocence
G
I can't pretend that I can tell you what
D
A
Bm
is going to happen next or how to be
D
A
G
But you have no idea about me
Verse 4
D
And it left me to wonder if
A
people ever know each other
D
A
Or just stumble around like strangers
D
'Cause sometimes you seem so strange to me,
A
I must seem strange to you
We're like two actors playing
Verse 5
D
Did you memorize your lines?
'cause I did
A
Here's the part where I get so mad I
Bm
tell you I can't forget the past
D
You get so quiet now and you seem
A
somehow like a lost and lonely child
And you just hope that the
D
Bm
moment won't last
Verse 6
D
A
bye to all this dogged innocence
G
I can't pretend that I can tell you what
D
A
Bm
is going to happen next or how to be
D
A
Bm
A
G
But you have no idea about me
D
A
G
You have no idea about me
Verse 7
D
G
There's something tying our
A
A moment passed we hear how
D
A
Bm
A
Then it seems a little less profound
G
D
Like we're all going
A
G
the same way down
A
G
the same way down
A
I'm just trying to write it all down
G
Verse 8
D
A
'Cause I write songs and you write letters
G
A
We are tied like two in tethers
D
A
And we talk and read, and laugh and sleep
G
A
At night in bed to gether
D
A
And you wake in tears sometimes
G
I can see your thoughts flash
D
A
They say darling will you be kind,
G
A
will you be a good man and stay behind
If I get old?
Bm
Verse 9
G
And then the letters all pass
Bm
With the words that I was told
G
A
About the fading flesh of
life and love
Bm
The failures of the bold
G
A
I can list each crippling fear like I'm
reading from a will
Bm
Verse 10
D
A
G
And I'll defy everyone and love you still
D
A
G
I will carry you with me up every hill
A
And if you die before I die I'll carve
D
Bm
your name out of the sky
G
A
I'll fall asleep with your memory and
D
A
Bm
dream of where you lie
D
A
Maybe better to move on and to let life
G
A
just carry on and I may be wrong
Bm
Verse 11
G
A
'Cause it's better to love,
Bm
whether you win or lose or die
G
A
It's better to love,
Bm
whether you win or lose or die
G
A
It's better to love,
Bm
and I will love you 'til I die
