[intro]
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Dm Dm/F G6
[verse 1]
Cmaj7 Do you see that young pretender Fmaj7 With the tear-marks on his face Dm G6 His dark eyes burning when he talks Cmaj7 I knew him in his splendour Fmaj7 I've known him in disgrace Dm G6 Who'll cut him down from this rock
[pre-chorus]
Am He says bring me my horses Em7 My symbols and my wheels Fmaj7 Dm G6 And we'll speak with our souls for a while Am 'Cause I'm sick and I'm torn Em7 And I long to be healed Fmaj7 Dm G6 G6/C G6 And the truth's been too long out of style
[chorus]
G6 Fmaj7 In my time on this earth C G I will speak the secret Fmaj7 In my time on earth C G I will tell what is true Fmaj7 In my time on earth C G I will say what the heart knows Fmaj7 In my time on earth C G I will say I am you
[verse 2]
Cmaj7 I'm so tired of the sound Fmaj7 My old fingers make Dm G6 As they tease and torment my guitar Cmaj7 And the man on my screen Fmaj7 Is an actor and a fake Dm G6 Yet he preens like a golden superstar
[pre-chorus]
Am I cried in her arms Em7 When the darkening day was done Fmaj7 Dm G6 And I smelt the burning city in her hair Am And the word on the tips Em7 Of a thousand million tongues Fmaj7 Went unspoken Dm G6 G6/C G6 While a lie sped everywhere
[chorus]
G6 Fmaj7 In my time on this earth C G I will speak the secret Fmaj7 In my time on earth C G I will tell what is true Fmaj7 In my time on earth C G I will say what the heart knows Fmaj7 In my time on earth C G I will say I am you
[verse 3]
Cmaj7 Now November is here Fmaj7 With its carpet of leaves Dm G6 And the songs of the dead fill my ears Cmaj7 All the champions are fallen Fmaj7 All the heroes are deceived Dm G6 And the world they made has disappeared
[pre-chorus]
Am So let's tell it like is, man Em7 Let's nail it on the line Fmaj7 Dm G6 Let's be clean with our tongues from here on in Am For we're deep in the heart Em7 Of the enemy's design Fmaj7 Dm G6 G6/C G6 Just waiting for the breakout to begin
[chorus]
G6 Fmaj7 In my time on this earth C G I will speak the secret Fmaj7 In my time on earth C G I will tell what is true Fmaj7 In my time on earth C G I will say what the heart knows Fmaj7 In my time on earth C G I will say I am you Fmaj7 In my time on earth C G I will say I am you Fmaj7 In my time on earth C G I will say I am you
