[Verse]
Bm
Well things change fast
But this too shall pass
A
Better carve it on your forehead
Em
Or tattoo it on your ass
Bm
Cause who can tell
D A
When the clock strikes twelve
Em
If today's become tomorrow
Or it's all just gone to hell
Bm
My friend makes rings
She swirls and sings
A
She's a mystic in the sense
Em
That she's still mystified by things
Bm
But scared to ask
D A
"How can nothing seem to last?"
Bm
Cause like a cancer in your body
It all just goes too fast
[Instrumental]
Bm A Em
[Verse]
Bm
We think too big
We think our self is one whole thing
A
And we claim that this collection
Em
Has a name and is a being
Bm
But deep inside
D A
When every cell divides
Em
Well it sets upon the rule that states
Self-interest is divine
Bm
And cancer too
Lives by this golden rule
A
That you must do unto the others
Em
As the others unto you
Bm
All for the best
D A
Cause it's all that life accepts
Em
So we kill it like a buffalo
With awe and with respect
[Verse]
Bm
Don't ask God
Just holler at the sky
A
Cause she'll tell it to you plainly
Em
In the clouds that whisper by
Bm
And praise the shapes
D A
And praise the way they change
Em
And they'll teach you not to pray to light
Without you pray to rain
Bm
So I pray to hands
And I pray to needs
A
And I pray to blades of grass
Em
To find forgiveness in the weeds
Bm
But as for health
D A
I just never did believe
Em
So I never prayed myself
Except to those that prayed for me
[Verse]
Bm
The story goes
Or the way that I was told
A
There was a king that always felt too high
Em
And then he fell too low
Bm
So he called
D A
All the wise men to the hall
Em
And he begged them for a gift
To end the rises and the falls
Bm
And here's the thing:
They came back with a ring
A
It was simple and was plainly
Em
Unbefitting of a king
Bm
Engraved in black
D A
Well it had no front or back
Em
But there were words around the band
Em
That said, "Just know: This Too Shall Pass."
