Intro:
C majorC G+G C majorC x2


  C majorC   G+G      C.
A augmentedA bear moved into the city,
   FF          C majorC
and all of the work dried up.
     A minorAm        C majorC
Put it all in his pickup truck,
   FF        G+G
and drove down the mountain.
     C majorC      G+G    C majorC
And he scoured the classified ads
     FF            C majorC
For a window with a view of the trees.

      A minorAm         C majorC
Signed his name, got a set of keys,
     FF        G+G
and the empty light of a room.

         A minorAm     FF
And he said, "I wonder if this is what
      C majorC
heaven is like?"
       G+G             A minorAm
"What if it means I'm more dead that alive?"
        FF            C majorC
"What would I be if I turned out the light,
     G+G    A minorAm  G+G C majorC FF A minorAm G+G C majorC G+G C majorC
before night... fell?"


 C majorC   G+G         C majorC
Bear walked while for groceries,
    FF           C majorC
and everyone stared at the ground.
  A minorAm            C majorC
Moving to the beat of the sound of the
  FF       G+G
voices of the engines.
      C majorC    G+G      C majorC
And the sidewalk tore at his feet,
    FF         C majorC
and it hurt just a little more
   A minorAm        C majorC
To open and close the door
     FF       G+G
of the Bodega on the corner.

And he said, "I wonder if this is what
      C majorC
heaven is like?"
       G+G             A minorAm
"What if it means I'm more dead that alive?"
        FF            C majorC
"What would I be if I turned out the light,
     G+G    A minorAm  G+G C majorC
before night... fell?"
    A minorAm  G+G  C majorC
In the old days,
     A minorAm   G+G  C majorC
we would up and run.
    A minorAm  G+G   C majorC
In the old days,
    A minorAm  G+G   C majorC G+G C majorC C G+G C majorC
we were so young.

Bear laid down on a park bench
   FF            C majorC
and stared straight up at the sky,
  A minorAm          C majorC
Waiting on the first starlight
     FF        G+G
in the space between the buildings.
     C majorC        G+G
And he stayed awake all night,
      FF      C majorC
with the cars and the people,
     A minorAm         C majorC
And his fingers formed a steeple
  FF      G+G
pointed at the sky.


     A minorAm
And he said, "I wonder if this is what
      C majorC
heaven is like?"
       G+G             A minorAm
"What if it means I'm more dead that alive?"
        FF            C majorC
"What would I be if I turned out the light,
     G+G    A minorAm   G+G  C majorC
before night... fell?"
