Chords

Worked out on request for TinOwl CHORD: I play the Fadd9 so: (1)(0)3213 [Intro] C Dm/C C Dm/C [Verse 1]
C               Fmaj7       C                      F
  Woke up Sunday morning,   Salvation Army at my door,

C                          Fmaj7      C                            F
  playing Onward Christian Soldiers   'til I couldn't take it anymore.

G                  F               Am                               D
  I ran across the graves at night   with those three witches at my   tail,

F                         G/F
  I heard the wail of the now and the ever - [Verse 2] more.
[Verse 2]
C                      Fmaj7    C                                F
  All things are never equal   and I don't know who's keeping score.

C               Fmaj7         C                         F
  Nobody gets a sequel, no   everyone gets shown the door.

G                         F          Am                         D
  I'll be counting on the rising sun   to give me all my waking   days

F                         G/F
  until it sets up on the   now and the ever - [Chorus] more.
[Chorus]
C       G/B    Am      C/G         F       C/E      Dm       G
Goodbye to the life we knew, don't save it 'til the end.

   C        G/B    Am       C/G     F        C/E       Dm       G
It could be me, it could be you, or some old long lost friend.

Am                   E                F                               G
  And if I'm calling out your name, I know if you can hear me you will come.

Am                        E                     F                   G  G/F G/E G/D
  You can leave a note or light a flame, sing a song or even bang a drum.
[Verse 3]
C                 Fmaj7     C                         F
  I saw The Lady Catrina, she was all a jingling at   the bar,

C                        Fmaj7    C                             F
playing an Italian concertina,   you know she's really quite   the star.

G                            F               Am                          D
  She told me everything's a circledance and we had been here many times   before

    F                       G/F
and we're all a part of the now and the ever - [Chorus] more.
[End-Chorus]
C       G/B    Am   C/G      F         C/E   Dm       G
Goodbye to the waterside and down that shady lane,

   C           G/B      Am   C/G     F        C/E      Dm       G
in case you're lost and wandering it does not look the same.

C       G/B    Am      C/G        F         C/E        Dm       G
Goodbye to the life we knew, some rules you just can't bend;

     C       G/B      Am   C/G     F      C/E       Dm       G
please make me one with everything before I reach the end.
