Capo: 3rd fret
[Intro]
Am G Fmaj7 Em
[Verse 1]
Am G
From the cradle to the grave
Fmaj7
Destined to break like the waves
Em
Existence is so threatening
Am
It takes a fierce grace to crack us open
G
A moment sat with our sentencing
Fmaj7 Em
And the light comes flooding in, oh, the light comes flooding in
Am
When the leaves fall in the spring
[Chorus]
G
May all the beggars be blessed
Fmaj7
Like angels with anhedonia
Em
We're all just doing our best
Am
Repeating, "There's nothing left"
G
That's why we weed out the wonderers
Fmaj7
Maybe there's virtue in emptiness
Em
But I still drown in distress
Am
When the leaves fall in the spring
[Verse 2]
G
With the ravens here to stay
Fmaj7
And the doves all flying away
Em
Sedation feels so welcoming
Am
In the subtle space, there's an endless ocean
G
But the devils sing and it's deafening
Fmaj7 Em
What a world we're living in, oh, we're never listening
Am
When the leaves fall in the spring
[Chorus]
G
May all the beggars be blessed
Fmaj7
Like angels with anhedonia
Em
We're all just doing our best
Am
Repeating, "There's nothing left"
G
That's why we weed out the wonderers
Fmaj7
Maybe there's virtue in emptiness
Em
But I still drown in distress
C
When the leaves fall in the spring
[Bridge]
G Am
I've got a lot to lose, but I won't lie to you
G C
And make believe sincerity, I'm praying for a remedy
G Am
Beloved distant blue, one day I'll die for you
G C
And swim in sweet serenity 'cause death is not my enemy
[Outro]
G Am
I've got a lot to lose, but I won't lie to you
G C
And make believe sincerity, I'm praying for a remedy
G Am
Beloved distant blue, one day I'll die for you
G C
And swim in sweet serenity 'cause death is not my enemy
From the cradle to the grave
Destined to break like the waves
Existence is so threatening
It takes a fierce grace to crack us open
A moment sat with our sentencing
And the light comes flooding in
Oh, the light comes flooding in
When the leaves fall in the spring
May all the beggars be blessed
Like angels with anhedonia
We're all just doing our best
Repeating 'there's nothing left'
That's why we weed out the wonderers
Maybe there's virtue in emptiness
But I still drown in distress
When the leaves fall in the spring
With the ravens here to stay
And the doves all flying away
Sedation feels so welcoming
In the subtle space there's an endless ocean
But the devils sing and it's deafening
What a world we're living in
Oh, we're never listening
When the leaves fall in the spring
May all the beggars be blessed
Like angels with anhedonia
We're all just doing our best
Repeating 'there's nothing left'
That's why we weed out the wonderers
Maybe there's virtue in emptiness
But I still drown in distress
When the leaves fall in the spring
I've got a lot to lose
But I won't lie to you
And make believe sincerity
I'm praying for a remedy
Beloved distant blue
One day I'll die for you
And swim in sweet serenity
'Cause death is not my enemy
I've got a lot to lose
But I won't lie to you
And make believe sincerity
I'm praying for a remedy
Beloved distant blue
One day I'll die for you
And swim in sweet serenity
'Cause death is not my enemy
