GEmGD
Back when I was young enough to know from where I came,
EmCEmDG
I saw my love be spat upon and shouted down in shame.
GEmGD
Well I hung my head and shed a tear, when I went to change my name,
EmCEmDG
But his honor told me don't 'cha fear, because it always ends the same.
[Chorus]
GEmGD
It always ends the same, he said, always ends the same.
EmCEmDG
Ah, remember dear this too shall pass, and it always ends the same.
[Verse 2]
GEmGD
Well I was feeling so alone, when the congregation sang,
EmCEmDG
Of Jesus Christ and Lucifer, and the price that I would pay.
GEmGD
But the preacher told me not to fear, for they know not what they say,
EmCEmDG
Yeah the history is on your side, and it always ends the same.
[Chorus]
GEmGD
It always ends the same, he said, always ends the same.
EmCEmDG
Ah, remember dear this too shall pass, and it always ends the same.
[Verse 3]
GEmGD
Now the fishes on the TV fly, in circles all the same,
EmCEmDG
Like little children terrified of what they can't explain.
GEmGD
But when the suburb and the sky, are both awash in flame,
EmCEmDG
Oh the television won't survive, and it always ends the same.
[Chorus]
GEmGD
It always ends the same, you know, always ends the same.
EmCEmDG
Oh, remember dear this too shall pass, and it always ends the same.
[Verse 4]
GEmGD
And when I'm finally old enough to learn to play the game,
EmCEmDG
Oh the dinosaurs will roam the earth, and resume their bloody reign.
GEmGD
But when I hear their victory song, I will hum the old refrain,
EmCEmDG
No life can live forever on, and it always ends the same.
[Chorus]
GEmGD
It always ends the same, you know, always ends the same.
EmCEmDG
Oh, remember dear this too shall pass, and it always ends the same.
GEmGD
It always ends the same, he said, always ends the same.
EmCEmDG
Oh, remember dear this too shall pass, and it always ends the same.
