D C Am Em G
Live or die before I get it done will you decide?
D C Am Em G
Take my words and turn them into signs they will survive
D C Am Em G
because a long time ago I knew not to deprive
D C Am Em G
It's safe out there now your everywhere just like the sky
D C Am Em G
And you I love you, you are the lucid dream you are the ride
D C Am Em G
And when you hear this you know it's your jam it's your goodbye
G Cmaj7 Em
Like I said you know I'm almost dead, you know I'm almost gone
G Cmaj7 Em
and when the drummer drums it's gonna play my song to carry me along
G Cmaj7 Em
Like I said you know I'm almost dead, you know I'm almost gone
G Cmaj7 Em
and when the boatman comes to ferry me away to where we all belong
D C Am Em G
We all cross when we were feeling lost it's just the time
D C Am Em G
Could terry cry the day her lover died she recognized
D C Am Em G
Because you gave her a life of real love it's no surprise
D C Am Em G
The nights are long but the years are short when your alive
D C Am Em G
Way back when we'll never be again it was a time,
D C Am Em G
It's gonna get you; so glad I met you to walk the line
G Cmaj7 Em
Like I said you know I'm almost dead, you know I'm almost gone
G Cmaj7 Em
and when the drummer drums it's gonna play my song to carry me along
G Cmaj7 Em
Like I said you know I'm almost dead, you know I'm almost gone
G Cmaj7 Em
and when the boatman comes to ferry me away to where we all belong
