Intro
G Bm (x2)
Verse:
[G]I waded through the darkest [Bm]fields you'd imagine
[G]Your pretty face sketched on the [Bm]barrel of my gun
And I [C]know you'll be the first to [G2]welcome me[D]
[C]When I climb into e[G2]ternity[D]
[C]Oh, [G]oh
[G]The forest always [Bm]kept us warm
[G]But it doesn't feel like [Bm]home anymore
And I [C]know there's bigger mountains [G2]where you are[D]
[C]And a better climate [G2]for my heart[D]
[C]Oh, [G]oh
Chorus:
I've been [C]racing the clock
And I've run out of steam
I am [Em]ready for my final [D]symphony
Oh my [C]body is weak
But my soul is still strong
I am [Em]ready to rest in your[D] arms
Verse:
[G]Though many battles [Bm]I have won
[G]I lost too many friends I [Bm]could count on
And I [C]know they'll be the first to [G2]welcome me[D]
[C]When I parachute into e[G2]ternity[D]
[C]Oh, [G]oh
Chorus:
I've been [C]racing the clock
And I've run out of steam
I am [Em]ready for my final [D]symphony
Oh my [C]body is weak
But my soul is still strong
I am [Em]ready to rest in your [D]arms
Bridge: (x2)
And the [G3]rain beat down on the r[C2]ooftops
But there was no [Em]sound
There was no [D]sound
And all my [G3]friends and family ca[C2]rried me
They carried me [Em]home
They carried me [D]home
Chorus:
Oh, I've been [C]racing the clock
And I've run out of steam
I am [Em]ready for my final [D]symphony
Oh my [C]body is weak
But my soul is still strong
I am [Em]ready to rest in your [D]arms
I've been [C]racing the clock
And I've run out of steam
I am [Em]ready for my final [D]symphony
Oh my [C]body is weak
But my soul is still strong
I am [Em]ready to rest in your[D] arms
[C]Oh, [G]oh
