[VERSE 1]
G               C                     G   Cadd9 G
  One day these boots will leave this town
G             D                   C        G   Cadd9 G
  One day the mountains will come crashing down
G              C              G    C G
  One day will be the longest night
G               D          C       G     Cadd9 G
  One day those wings will tire in flight


[CHORUS]
      C           G
Oh my lord, oh my lord
     D     C          G   Cadd9 G
It's death I can't afford


[VERSE 2]
G                  C            G  Cadd9 G
  One day there'll be no way to go
G              D                  C   G   Cadd9 G
  One day that river'll burst and overflow
G             C                    G   Cadd9 G
  One day the wind will tame the flame
G                D            C     G   Cadd9 G
  One day that's never coming back again


[CHORUS]
      C           G
Oh my lord, oh my lord
     D     C          G   Cadd9 G
It's death I can't afford


[VERSE 3]
G                     C               G   Cadd9 G
  One day there'll be nothing left to do
G             D          C        G      Cadd9 G
  One day the rainbow'll break on through
G                C                 G   Cadd9 G
  One day, every day I'll think of you
G                      D    C          G   Cadd9 G
  One day I'll say goodbye, ain't that true


[CHORUS]
      C           G
Oh my lord, oh my lord
     D     C          G   Cadd9 G
It's death I can't afford


[VERSE 4]
G         C                  G   Cadd9 G
  One day I'll come back for you
G                D  C     G    Cadd9 G
  One day you'll feel the chill
G                 C             G   Cadd9 G
  One day you and I will be the same
G                    D        C      G   Cadd9 G
  One day we'll fall together as the rain


[CHORUS]
      C           G
Oh my lord, oh my lord
      C           G
Oh my lord, oh my lord
      C           G
Oh my lord, oh my lord
     D     C         G   Cadd9 G
It's death I have ignored
