Art of Dying

 

INTRO  Am, E

            Am                       Am7               F

They'll come a time when all of us must leave here

         E                                           Am

Then nothing Sister Mary can do can keep me here with you

             Am                Am7                      F

There's nothing in this life that I've been trying

       E                                         Am

Can equal or surpass the art of dying

E                      Am

Do you believe me?

             Am                         Am7                       F

They'll come the time when all your hopes are fading.

          E                                               Am

When things that seem so very plain, become an awful pain.

Am                      Am7                   F

Searching for the truth among the lying.

       E                                                       Am 

And answered when you learn the art of dying.

E                           Am

Are you still with me?

 

CHORUS:

A              Dm

But if you want it

                        Am

Then you must find it

A                      Dm

But when you have it

                           Am

There will be no need for it

 

REPEAT INTRO

            Am                        Am7            F

They'll come a time when most of us return here.

             E                                     Am

Brought back by our desire to be a perfect entity.

Am                     Am7                    F

Living through a million years of crying.

      E                                    Am

Until you realize the art of dying.

E                      Am      E                       Am

Do you believe me?            Do you believe me?

 

REPEAT INTRO
