Intro:

G+G D6add9/F# E minorEm C majorC Dadd4add9 G+G x2


Verse :

G+G    D6add9/F# E minorEm
When my time has come
    C majorC      Dadd4add9 G+G
And the long doggone days are done
       D6add9/F#  E minorEm
Like stagnent smoke in the breeze, I'll blow
     C majorC    Dadd4add9 G+G
And I'll think of you when I go
   D6add9/F#  E minorEm
I'll become a silhouette
 C majorC       Dadd4add9     G+G
A augmentedA shadow of the stars, in dust and haze
      D6add9/F#   E minorEm
But you'll taste me with each cigarette
     C majorC     Dadd4add9 G+G
And like me, you'll like the place

Pre-Chorus:

C majorC      D MajorD        G+G
For now you know that all my time is for you
   C majorC        D MajorD        G+G
Your words and smiles collecting in my brain
C majorC      D MajorD       G+G
Just hold on tight, love me like I'm twenty two
    C majorC         D MajorD        G+G
When I die there won't be no more burning pain

Chorus:

     C majorC G+G  E minorEm   G+G D MajorD
When the reaper starts to grin
     G+G D6add9/F#  E minorEm  D MajorD  C majorC
When you finally    leave your skin
 C majorC   G+G  E minorEm G+G D MajorD
I swear it's not so grim
      G+G
When it's over

Verse :

G+G    D6add9/F#   E minorEm
Life is like a yellow bird
      C majorC       Dadd4add9     G+G
Filled with endless moral search and nothing found
       D6add9/F#      E minorEm
Just like the songs I know you've heard
  C majorC        Dadd4add9     G+G
The tunes our bodies made the sweetest sound

Pre-Chorus:

C majorC      D MajorD        G+G
So yeah you know that all my time is for you
   C majorC        D MajorD        G+G
Your words and smiles collecting in my brain
C majorC      D MajorD       G+G
Just hold on tight, love me like I'm twenty two
      C majorC         D MajorD        G+G
And when I die there won't be no more burning pain

Chorus:

     C majorC  G+G E minorEm  G+G  D MajorD
When the lyrics stop your heart
    G+G  D6add9/F#  E minorEm  D MajorD C majorC
Like an abstract    piece of art
   C majorC   G+G E minorEm  G+G D MajorD      G+G
When begin to start to start, it over

     C majorC G+G  E minorEm   G+G D MajorD
When the reaper starts to grin
     G+G D6add9/F#  E minorEm  D MajorD  C majorC
When you finally    leave your skin
 C majorC   G+G  E minorEm G+G D MajorD
I swear it's not so grim
      G+G
When it's over
