Key: Ebm

Intro:


Eb          B  Eb
Eb            B    Eb

Verse 1:

Eb
We parse the script unwritten line by line
     B                                Ebm      Eb
The mystery of life filtered through time

A blank slate open-ended to begin
    B                              Ab        Bb
To balance with our own uncertain end, once again

Chorus:

      Gbm           D         A
It's appointed for man once to die
       E            Gbm
Maybe years, maybe tonight
        D              A                 E   Dbm     D
No matter how hard we rage against the dying of the light
               A/C#
It comes for everyone
     B                   Ebm
For all of us return to dust
Interlude:

             B         Ebm  Eb
Return to dust!

Verse 2:

Eb
An inventory of a lifetime passed
     B                                Ebm
Of things ephemeral, and things that last

The hourglass runs out we know not when
    B                                Abm       Bb
To meet the Maker when our time has come to an end

Chorus:

      Gbm           D         A
It's appointed for man once to die
       E            Gbm
Maybe years, maybe tonight
        D              A                 E   Dbm     D
No matter how hard we rage against the dying of the light
               A/C#
It comes for everyone
     B                   Ebm
For all of us return to dust

Bridge:

              Abm
When I don't know who to be
          E                   B                      Gb
Will You watch over me as we walk to the end of the world?
           Dbm                Abm
They were calling for me, but You were all I could see
          B               Gb
And Your voice was all I heard
     E                     Abm                 Db
For all that we do in this life without You is vanity

Chorus:

      Gbm           D         A
It's appointed for man once to die
       E            Gbm
Maybe years, maybe tonight
        D              A                 E   Db      D
No matter how hard we rage against the dying of the light
               A/C#
It comes for everyone
     B                   Ebm
For all of us return to dust
