G B7 C G C G D D/F#

            G                     B7           C              G

Now as our poor young lungs deflate, I'll admit I've gotten older

            C          G                   D            D/F#

Mellowed out, chatting up those I used to hate

                        G                   B7        C           G

The feeling that we're lost will always fade, I present no explanation

          C             G            D          D/F#

Can't expect our tired patience to satiate for long

                    C                         G

And therein lies a truth we can sip when we want

                   C                      G

Disciples of the flow we can float anywhere

                   C                         G

If ever there's a drought I've listed the puddles

             D            D/F#

Proven to better coax the divine out from within


   G         B7        C                 G

        Bum, bum, bum, buh duh duh, dum,


                       C                G             D            D/F#

Buh duh, duh duh, duh duh, duh duh duh, duh duh duh, duh duh, duh, dum

                      G                    B7

Remember there's more road, and places to go

                   C                          G

And patterns to contemplate, more people to fornicate

                        C                  G                             D                        D/F#

And remember there's a lot of good omens supplying the proof that our life is the best joke ever told

                G                   B7

Remember its a joke, and leave it alone.

            C                  G

Let go and try to be always abiding

                    C                     G                       D                              D/F#

Remember if there's one good reason for dying, the sweet silver lining, through you she lives on

                    C                            G

And therein lies a coast we can see through the fog

                    C                        G

An island in our thoughts can be heaven on Earth

            C                 G                        D              D/F#

I swear to God if I haven't wandered all over then I haven't done something that's worth telling at all

   G         B7        C                 G

        Bum, bum, bum, buh duh duh, dum,


                       C                G             D            D/F#

Buh duh, duh duh, duh duh, duh duh duh, duh duh duh, duh duh, duh, dum

           D  (hold)                                C (hold)

After the hell that you've been through, what could I even say?

             G                B7

Our Auntie Earth will take us in

        C                 G

She awaits our battered shells

             C              G           D                 D/F#

I'll try to lay as close as I can to you, but while we're breathing I should tell you

           G                   B7

From the depths of the void I will

           C                 G

Love you for your growing crows feet

            C              G                D  D/F#

And fully adore the contradictions that we live, as all I can give


   G         B7        C                C

        Bum, bum, bum, buh duh duh, dum,


                       G                G            D             C

Buh duh, duh duh, duh duh, duh duh duh, duh duh duh, duh duh, duh, dum

      G (hold)

Buh, dum
