Intro: Bm / Bm / Bm / Bm
Things change [Bm]fast but this [Bm]too shall pass
Better [D]carve it on your forehead or tat[G]too it on your ass
Cause who can [Bm]tell when the [Bm]clock strikes twelve
If to[D]day's become tomorrow or if it's [G]all just gone to hell
My friend makes [Bm]rings she [Bm]swirls and sings
She's a [D]mystic in the sense that she's still [G]mystified by things
But scared to [Bm]ask how can [Bm]nothing last
Cause like a [D]cancer in your body it [G]all just goes too fast.
[Bm] [/] [Bm] [/] [Bm] [/] [Bm]  
We think too [Bm]big we think our [Bm]self is one whole thing
And we [D]claim that this collection has a [G]name and is a being
But deep in[Bm]side when every [Bm]cell divides
It [D]sets upon the rule that states self-[G]interest is divine
Cancer t[Bm]oo lives by this go[Bm]lden rule
That you must [D]do unto the others as the [G]others unto you
All for the [Bm]best cause that's all the life [Bm]accepts
And so we [D]kill it like a buffalo with [G]awe and with respect.
[Bm] [/] [Bm] [/] [Bm] [/] [Bm]  
Don't ask [Bm]God just [Bm]holler at the sky
She'll [D]tell it to you plainly in the [G]clouds that whisper by
And praise the [Bm]shapes and then [Bm]praise the way they change
And they'll [D]teach you not to pray to light with[G]out you pray to rain
So I pray to [Bm]hands and I pray to [Bm]needs
And I [D]pray to blades of grass to find for[G]giveness in the weeds
But as for [Bm]health I just [Bm]never did believe
And so I [D]never prayed myself except to [G]those that prayed for me.
[Bm] [/] [Bm] [/] [Bm] [/] [Bm]  
The story [Bm]goes or the [Bm]way that I was told
There was a [D]king that always felt too high and [G]then he fell too low
And so he [Bm]called all the [Bm]wise men to the hall
And [D]begged them for a gift to end the [G]rises and the falls
And here's the [Bm]thing they [Bm]came back with a ring
It was [D]simple and was plainly unbe[G]fitting of a king
Engraved in [Bm]black it [Bm]had no front or back
But there were [D]words around the band that said just [G]know: This Too Shall Pass
Outro: Bm
