Easy way to play it
Em7 C
Your body may be gone, I'm gonna carry you in.
Bm C
In my head, in my heart, in my soul.
Em7 C
And maybe we'll get lucky and we'll both live again.
Bm C
Well I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Don't think so.
Em7 C
Well that is that and this is this.
G C
You tell me what you want and I'll tell you what you get.
Em7 C
You get away from me. You get away from me.
G C
Collected my belongings and I left the jail.
Em7 C
Well thanks for the time, I needed to think a spell.
G C
I had to think awhile. I had to think awhile.
Em7 C
The ocean breathes salty, won't you carry it in?
Bm C
In your head, in your mouth, in your soul.
Em7 C
And maybe we'll get lucky and we'll both grow old.
Bm C
Well I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I hope so.
Em7 C
Well that is that and this is this.
G C
You tell me what you want and I'll tell you what you get.
Em7 C
You get away from me. (You get away from me) You get away from me.
G C
Collected my belongings and I left the jail.
Em7 C
Well thanks for the time, I needed to think a spell.
G C
I had to think awhile. (I had to think awhile) I had to think awhile.
Em7 C
Well that is that and this is this.
G C
Will you tell me what you saw and I'll tell you what you missed,
Em7 C D
when the ocean met the sky. (You missed, you missed)
G C D
You missed when time and life shook hands and said goodbye. (You missed)
Em7 C D
When the earth folded in on itself. (You missed)
G C D
And said "Good luck, for your sake I hope heaven and hell (You missed, you missed)
Em7 C D
are really there, but I wouldn't hold my breath." (You missed, you missed)
G C D
You wasted life, why wouldn't you waste death? (You missed, you missed)
Em7 C
You wasted life, why wouldn't you waste death?
Em7 C
The ocean breathes salty, won't you carry it in?
Bm C
In your head, in your mouth, in your soul.
Em7 C
The more we move ahead the more we're stuck in rewind.
Bm C
Well I don't mind. I don't mind. How the hell could I mind?
Em7 C
Well that is that and this is this.
G C
You tell me what you want and I'll tell you what you get.
Em7 C
You get away from me. You get away from me.
Em7 C
Well that is that and this is this.
G C
Will you tell me what you saw and I'll tell you what you missed,
Em7 C D
when the ocean met the sky. (You missed, you missed)
G C
You wasted life, why wouldn't you waste the afterlife?
