Intro Bm (x2) Verse: Bm I waded through the darkest fields you'd imagine Bm Your pretty face sketched on the barrel of my gun D And I know you'll be the first to welcome me D When I climb into eternity G Oh, oh Bm The forest always kept us warm Bm But it doesn't feel like home anymore D And I know there's bigger mountains where you are D And a better climate for my heart G Oh, oh Chorus: C I've been racing the clock And I've run out of steam D I am ready for my final symphony C Oh my body is weak But my soul is still strong D I am ready to rest in your arms Verse: Bm Though many battles I have won Bm I lost too many friends I could count on D And I know they'll be the first to welcome me D When I parachute into eternity G Oh, oh Chorus: C I've been racing the clock And I've run out of steam D I am ready for my final symphony C Oh my body is weak But my soul is still strong D I am ready to rest in your arms Bridge: (x2) C2 And the rain beat down on the rooftops Em But there was no sound D There was no sound C2 And all my friends and family carried me Em They carried me home D They carried me home Chorus: C Oh, I've been racing the clock And I've run out of steam D I am ready for my final symphony C Oh my body is weak But my soul is still strong D I am ready to rest in your arms C I've been racing the clock And I've run out of steam D I am ready for my final symphony C Oh my body is weak But my soul is still strong D I am ready to rest in your arms G Oh, oh
