[Dm]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Now as you know it's your time on this earth
While [F]we’re rocking the cradle
[Dm]we’re riding the hearse
[Am]We keep mov[A]ing [Am]upward
toward everything free
And [F]kindly look downward and oh,
[Dm]you'll see me
I've had [Am]six years of luck
I've had six on the line
And I've [F]poured myself out like
[Dm]an old bitter wine
[Am]I've seen much of nothin' and
nothin's the game
[F]I've been thrown on my back and
[Dm]I don't know my name

[Verse 2]
There's [Am]too many tears,
too many tears
[F]Too many people in [Dm]too many years
[Am]Some tears of laughter and
some tears of pain
That [F]break like a fever [Dm]and fall like

[Interlude 1]
rain
[Am][F][Dm]
[Am][F][Dm]

[Verse 3]
[Am]Points on the map,
tears line the way
[F]I've seen all your pretty things
and [Dm]oh it’s a shame
There's [Am]been much confusion
with too many hurt
[F]I feel my words dyin'
[Dm]down in the dirt
I've had [Am]lies in my head,
there’s been lies in my heart
I've been [F]tortured by this riddle
and I don't [Dm]know how to start
With a [Am]lightning flash and thunder,
boys and my mind it starts to click
So [F]do what you must do and you [Dm]best do [Am]it quick

[Verse 4]
[Am]Doctor, oh doctor my world's in your hands
I [F]feel like I'm dyin' and
[Dm]oh I need a plan
Sis[Am]ter,
sweet sister there's blood on my lips
[F]Why does it feel like [Dm]this
wound’s doing flips
[Am]The dream's come on time,
it's clear I can tell
[F]I've seen your work everywhere
and there's [Dm]mercy in hell
With a [Am]lightning flash and thunder,
boys and again it all comes down
And I [F]see my life merging with these [Dm]poor souls underground
