Not sure if you slide both notes or just higher one at the beginning of each phrase but other than that i'm
pretty sure it's 100% accurate.

[Interlude]
G C
If the sadness of life makes you tired
D G
And the failures of man make you sigh
C
You can look to the time soon arriving
D
When this noble experiment
Am G
Winds down and calls it a day

[Outro]
G C
Time has come now to stop being human
D G
Time to find a new creature to be
G C
Be a fish or a weed or a sparrow
D C G
For the Earth has grown tired and all of your time has expired
G C
All the gardens are sprouting with flowers
D G
All the treetops are bursting with birds
G C
And the people all know that it's over
D Am G
They lay down their ears and they hang up their tiresome words
