   E minorEm
I'm waiting in my cold cell, when the bell begins to chime
  E minorEm
Reflecting on my past life and it doesn't have much time
     C majorC        D MajorD           E minorEm
'Cause at 5 o'clock they take me to the Gallows pole
C majorC         D MajorD       E minorEm  C majorC  D MajorD E minorEm
The sands of time for me are running low
     E minorEm C majorC  D MajorD  E minorEm
Running lo ow

 When the priest comes to read me the last rites
C majorC                          A augmentedA
 I take a look through the bars at the last sights
D MajorD                   B minorBm E minorEm B minorBm C majorC D MajorD
 Of a world that has gone very wrong for me
E minorEm                      B minorBm
 Can it be that there's some sort of error
C majorC                   A augmentedA
 Hard to stop the surmounting terror
D MajorD                  B minorBm E minorEm B minorBm C majorC D MajorD
 Is it really the end, not some crazy dream?

E minorEm
 Somebody please tell me that I'm dreaming
C majorC
 It's not so easy to stop from screaming
D MajorD                   E minorEm B minorBm C majorC D MajorD
 But words escape me when i try to speak.

 Tears flow but why am I crying
C majorC
 After all I'm not afraid of dying
D MajorD                    E minorEm B minorBm C majorC D MajorD
 Don't I believe that there never is an en____d

E minorEm
 As the guards march me out to the courtyard
C majorC
 Somebody cries from a cell "God be with you"
D MajorD                     E minorEm
 If there's a God then why has he let me down?
E minorEm
 As I walk all my life drifts before me
C majorC
And Though the end is near I'm still not sorry
 D MajorD                   E minorEm
Catch my soul, it's willing to fly away
E minorEm
 Mark my words believe my soul lives on
C majorC                  D MajorD
 Please Don't worry now that I have gone
               E minorEm
I've gone beyond to see the truth
E minorEm                     C majorC
 When you know that your time is close at hand
                 D MajorD
Maybe then you'll begin to understand
E minorEm
Life down here is just a strange illusion
