D MajorD G+G D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
D MajorD
Well the air was passed so quickly
G+G
It’s like there was no time at all
D MajorD
Those wild winds stayed with me
A augmentedA
even when I turned to go
D MajorD
But this wicked world is twisted man
G+G
time moves both fast and slow
D MajorD
women lie there naked
A augmentedA
their blood across the snow
D MajorD
In the calm defined collective
G+G
I’d bet you wish you’d never know
D MajorD
unless I stand corrected
A augmentedA D MajorD
guess we’re out here on our own
G+G
We were born to die
D MajorD
Baby we were born to die
Life is just these questions
A augmentedA
we’re never certain why
G+G
We were born to die
D MajorD
Baby we were born to die
Shining sea below us
A augmentedA D MajorD
above us only sky
D MajorD G+G D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
D MajorD
Well the years built up inside me
G+G
but the rains they left me cold
D MajorD
some things are forgotten
A augmentedA
some things I’ll never know
D MajorD
In the lying eyes of justice
G+G
well they put on quite a show
D MajorD
with all the lights upon us
A augmentedA D MajorD
how could we ever know
G+G
We were born to die
D MajorD
Baby we were born to die
I’ve got all these questions now
A augmentedA
but who could ever mind
G+G
We were born to die
D MajorD
Baby we were born to die
Shining sea below us
A augmentedA D MajorD
above us only sky
D MajorD G+G D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
D MajorD
In the final hours of darkness
G+G
just before the break of dawn
D MajorD
I heard you move beside me
A augmentedA
Like you’d been there all along
D MajorD
And it felt so good to know you babe
G+G
ten thousand can’t be wrong
D MajorD
And i pray that time will forget us
A augmentedA D MajorD
