Tom: E
E C#m A B
E
Don't want to go too soon
C#m
Don't want to stay too long
A
Don't want to go too quick into the night
B
Don't want to linger on and on
E
Don't want to leave you a mess
C#m
Don't want to cause a fuss
A
Roll me into the hole
B
Cover me up
A
I'd like to know when it's comin'
E C#m
Just a little time to prepare
E
When the voice of midnight comes
A
And into oblivion I stare
E
There's no one waitin' on me
C#m
No heaven or hell
A
The only vow I make
B
To live true and die well
E
And when I'm gone, I'm gone
C#m
You'll hear my name in the wind
A
Up to the great beyond
B
Back to where we begin
A
Will I hold on to the courage
E C#m
To say goodbye to a life so dear?
E
When the voice of midnight comes
A
Will grace overcome fear?
[Bridge]
A
I was born under a lucky star
C#m
And I'm thankful every day
B
And I know in the blink of an eye
A Asus2
It'll all be taken away
[Interlude]
E C#m A B
E C#m A B
E
Maybe an open field
C#m
Under the stars and moon
E
With the smell of the land and the air
A
Not some hospital room
E
I'll take my comfort in song
C#m
To the bittersweet end
E
And then I'll take my leave
A
Safe in the memory of friends
A
I'd like to know when it's comin'
E C#m
Just a little time to prepare
E
When the voice of midnight comes
A Asus2
I hope you'll be there
