Verse 1:
   C
Every wish every desire
   F         C
Every pain that's in my heart
      C
I blew them all away the day
  G       E7
I namasted myself apart
     Am        C
Sweating men with bulging eyes
    F        C
Came in bearing lies to give
      C
At first I was afraid to die
    G          E7
Now I'm scared that I might live

Pre-Chorus:
Am
Stay with me
G
Stay with me


Chorus:
    C
For the day is passed
C
And the evening's come
     G       E7
Be my companion in the way
 Am        C
Accept the things you cannot
  G          E7
And things that you can change
   Am
It'll be the way it is
   G           C
This and not some other way


Verse 2:
C
In the mornin when I wake up
      F      C
I'm afraid that I might die
C
So I try and stay awake
      G     E7
And I keep a watchful eye
      Am         C
In the fog of war we've burned alive
      F     C
The saints along with sinners
C
I will be with you today in paradise
      G      E7
If I don't come in for dinner


Pre-Chorus:
Am
Stay with me
G
Stay with me


Chorus:
    C
For the day is passed
    F     C
And the evening's come
     G       E7
Be my companion in the way
 Am        C
Accept the things you cannot
  G          E7
And things that you can change
   Am      C
It'll be the way it is
   G         C
This and not some other way


Verse 3:
C
I watch no one fight for nothing
    F     C
Against 20 godless fiends
C
You could fill a man to the brim with gold
      G         E7
And there'd still be room for greed
   Am           C
So I rent a mind and borrow words
        F
For thoughts I cannot say
C
This will be the way it is
       G
This and not some other way
E7        Am   C
This will be the way it is
       G     C
This and not some other way
