A augmentedA E MajorE BB D MajorD

1st Verse:

A augmentedA      E MajorE        BB    D MajorD
I found the Holy Bible on a bench outside the courthouse
A augmentedA    E MajorE        BB        D MajorD
and I am scared because I do not think of God, no
  A augmentedA       E MajorE
The thoughts that cross my mind
  BB       D MajorD
are neither holy, nor divine,
   A augmentedA      E MajorE        BB      D MajorD  A augmentedA    E MajorE BB
just simple human longings for the boy who does not believe
  D MajorD        A augmentedA E MajorE BB D MajorD
he once believed in me

A augmentedA      E MajorE          BB       D MajorD
So I walked on and stuffed that heavy new book under my arm
A augmentedA         E MajorE     BB    D MajorD
and then I got in my car and drove on home
A augmentedA      E MajorE
I thought of words he said
   BB              D MajorD
'bout where we're going once we're dead
  A augmentedA       E MajorE
but other worries fill my head
   BB       D MajorD    A augmentedA   E MajorE BB
It's selfish and I know I'm wrong
     D MajorD         A augmentedA  E MajorE BB D MajorD
but I'll miss him when he's gone

Chorus:

D MajorD
Yeah I still fear the black
A augmentedA
 but there's no looking back
E MajorE
 and if I'm dying, I'm just dying for you, dear
D MajorD
Can't tell which way to go
A augmentedA
 I doubt we'll ever know
E MajorE                          D MajorD (pause)
 Let's take advantage of the time that we've got here

'Cause time's all we've got here

Interlude:

A augmentedA E MajorE BB D MajorD

2nd Verse:

A augmentedA     E MajorE         BB           D MajorD
I made it home, unlocked the door, and tossed that book onto the floor
A augmentedA      E MajorE        BB        D MajorD
where it sat waiting like I'm waiting for the truth, so
A augmentedA       E MajorE      BB          D MajorD
I put it in a box under my bed, with all those silly things I've kept
A augmentedA     E MajorE       BB        D MajorD    A augmentedA E MajorE BB
and I will leave it there unread, so I can get back to
     D MajorD        A augmentedA E MajorE   BB      D MajorD
figuring out how I'll get through today and tomorrow

Chorus:

D MajorD
Yeah I still fear the black
A augmentedA
 but there's no looking back
E MajorE
 and if I'm dying, I'm just dying for you, dear
D MajorD
Can't tell which way to go
A augmentedA
 I doubt we'll ever know
E MajorE                          D MajorD
 Let's take advantage of the time that we've got here

'Cause time's all we've got here

Interlude:

A augmentedA E MajorE BB D MajorD

Bridge:

            D MajorD              A augmentedA
And if it's just gonna end, what's the point of it all
    E MajorE
Call it quits, cut out early, this is surely your fault
D MajorD            A augmentedA
When I fall back to you, I am through, I am through
D MajorD
Oh but I do, I do, I do

Chorus:

D MajorD
Yeah I still fear the black
A augmentedA
 but there's no looking back
E MajorE
 and if I'm dying, I'm just dying for you, dear
D MajorD
Can't tell which way to go
A augmentedA
 I doubt we'll ever know
E MajorE                          D MajorD (pause)
 Let's take advantage of the time that we've got here
                 A augmentedA (hold)
