[D] [C] [Am] [Em] [G]
[D/A] [C] [Am] [Em] [G]
[D]Live or [C]die before I [Am]get it [Em]done will you dec[G]ide?
[D/A]Take my [C]words and turn them [Am]into [Em]signs they will [G]survive
Because a [D]long [C]time ago [Am]I [Em]knew not to dep[G]rive
It's [D/A]safe out [C]there and now your [Am]every [Em]where just like the [G]sky,
And [D]you I [C]love you are the [Am]lucid [Em]dream you are the [G]ride
And when you [D/A]hear [C]this you know it's [Am]your [Em]jam it's your good [G]bye
[G]Like I said you know I'm [C]almost dead you know I'm [Em]almost gone
And when the [G]drummer drums it's gonna [C]play my song to carry [Em]me along
[G]Like I said you know I'm [C]almost dead you know I'm [Em]almost gone
And when the [G]boatman comes to ferry [C]me away to where we [Em]all belong
[D]We all [C]cross when when we are [Am]feeling [Em]lost it's just the [G]time
Could [D/A]Terry [C]cry the day her [Am]lover [Em]died she recogn[G]ized
Because you [D]gave [C]her a life of [Am]real [Em]love it's no [G]surprise
The [D/A]nights are [C]long but the [Am]years are [Em]short when you're a[G]live
[D]Way back [C]when will never [Am]be ag[Em]ain it was a [G]time
It's gonna [D/A]catch [C]you so glad I [Am]met [Em]you to walk the [G]line
