[Verse 1]
Em
I saw it for a second but then the light was fading
Em
Sister morphine was my lady in waiting
Am
Can I help it if I can’t help it now,
Em
all the stories I tell myself
[Pre-chorus]
GDAmEm
What can I say to you all,
CGDDsus4
it’s fair to say, no words will do
GDCAm
All this time, time is speeding, it’s hard to recognize the life we’re leaving
GEmAmD
it’s time to trip the light of the evening and go now
GDCAm
And in this land there’s shade and shadow, we break bread and consecrate the battle
GEmAmD
cradle to the grave, sword to the saddle, it’s each other we will miss
AmDG
Oh the happiest moment of my life,
AmDEm
was the saddest moment of my life
Em
(riff)
[Verse 2]
Em
Was in prison when my daddy died
Em
They didn’t tell me for fear of suicide
Am
Told me when I got outside,
Em
I started using as soon as I was alone that night
[Pre-chorus]
GDAmEm
And I died and I went up straight to him
CGDDsus4
He said where you been, my troubled son
[Chorus]
GDCAm
All this time, time is speeding, it’s hard to recognize the life we’re leaving
GEmAmD
it’s time to trip the light of the evening and go now
GDCAm
And in this land there’s shade and shadow, we break bread and consecrate the battle
GEmAmD
cradle to the grave, sword to the saddle, it’s each other we will miss
AmDG
Oh the happiest moment of my life,
AmDEm
was the saddest moment of my life
[Bridge]
EmCGD7/F#
Oh my love can I just sit and hold your face.
CGDsus4D
We finally made it here but now the light is low.
[Chorus]
GDCAm
All this time, time is speeding, it’s hard to recognize the life we’re leaving
GEmAmD
it’s time to trip the light of the evening and go now
GDCAm
And in this land there’s shade and shadow, we break bread and consecrate the battle
GG/F#EmAmD
Now I'm feeling kinda faded, I think I need to lay down
Am7Asus4
Oh you almost saved me
D
You almost saved me
GCD
You almost saved me nooooooooow
GCD
You almost saved me nooooooooow
GCD
You almost saved me nooooooooow
GCD
You almost saved me nooooooooow
GDCAm
All this time we pledge allegiance to the tune of a thousand treasons
GEmAmD
One nation under something, under water, under mass incarceration
GDCAm
In the age of feast and famine can we disrupt the social canon
GEmCD
Let our children lead so we all believe, let us see the forest for the trees
[Outro]
Em
