Intro
[A] [Faug] [Dmaj7] [Dm6]
Verse 1
Sure it’s a [Bm]calming notion, perpetu[F#m]al in motion
But I don’t [Bm]need the comfort of any [F#m]lies
For I have [Bm]seen the ending and there is [F#m]no ascending [A]ri[Faug]se
Verse 2
Oh, back when [Bm]I was younger, was told by [F#m]other youngsters
That my end [Bm]will be torture beneath the [F#m]earth
‘Cause I don’t [Bm]see what they see when death is [F#m]staring at me
I see a [Bm6]window, a [Bm7]limit, to [Bm]live it, or [Bmadd9]not at all [Faug]
[Dmaj7] [Fmaj7] [Amaj7] [F#m7] [Bm7] [C#m7] [Dmaj7] [Fmaj7]
Verse 3
If you could [Bm]pull the lever to carry [F#m]on forever
Would your life [Bm]even matter any[F#m]more?
Sure it’s a [Bm]calming notion, perpetu[F#m]al in motion
But it’s [A]not what you signed [Faug]up for

A Faug Dmaj7 Faug (x2)
[A] I’m sure there [Faug]won’t always be [Dmaj7]sun - [Faug]shine
[A] But there’s this [Faug]momentary [Dmaj7]beam of [Faug]light
You [A]don’t have to wait those [Faug]salty decades
To [Dmaj7]get through the gate, it’s all in [Faug]front of your face
[A] I’m sure there [Faug]won’t always be [Dmaj7]sun - [Faug]shine
[A] I’m sure there [Faug]won’t always be [Dmaj7]sun - [Dm]shine
[A] But there’s this [Faug]momentary [Dmaj7]beam of [Dm]light
Chorus 3
I could [A]cross the ocean in a fit [Bm]of devotion
For every [A]shining second this fragile [Bm]body beckons
You think you’re [A]owed it better believing [Bm]ancient letters
Sure it’s a [A]calming notion but it’s a [Bm]lie
