[G] [B7] [C] [G] [C] [G] [D] [D/B]
[G] [B7] [C] [G]
Now as our poor young lungs deflate, I'll admit I've gotten older
[C] [G] [D] [D/B]
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/B]
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/B]
Proven to better coax the divine out from within
[G] [B7] [C] [G]
Bum, bum, bum, buh duh duh, dum,
[C] [G] [D] [D/B]
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/B]
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/B]
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/B]
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/B]
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/B]
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/B]
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
