The Day I Died

[Intro]
F  G
 
 
[Verse 1]
          C
I woke up
     G       C
You next to me
               F
You said Good Morning
G         C
Are you free
              F
The sun crept in
    G         Am
For one last time
        F              Gsus4    G
I was alive the day I died
                  C
The clock struck noon
     G       C
But did not care
          F
I saw a child
    G       C
In my old chair
          F      G         Am
A shadow fell across your face
                   F
But all the years
            Gsus4    G
Could not erase
 
 
[Chorus]
        F       G    C
I was alive, I was alive
                F
You pulled me close
   G        C
I held you tight
            F   E7           Am7    D7
Though my smiles told a few lies
        F    G            C
I was alive,   the day I died
 
 
[Verse 2]
                    G      C
I was the first to see a star
               F
It seemed so close
    G      C
It was so far
                 F
Wind started to roar
          G       Am
Screamed time to go
                  F
You know all you need
                   Gsus4    G
You need all you know
 
 
[Chorus]
        F       G    C
I was alive, I was alive
                F
You pulled me close
   G        C
I held you tight
            F   E7           Am7    D7
Though my smiles told a few lies
        F    G            C
I was alive,   the day I died
 
 
[Bridge]
F                   Em
Oh Sweet Angel you call
Am                  D
Oh Sweet Angel you call
F/A      G/B
Oh Sweet Angel
 
 
[Verse 3]
             C
White went black
  G          C
Black went white
           F
Universe cracked
   G       C
I saw the light
               F
You called my name
E7             Am7
 I did not respond
                 F
But I heard you well
               Gsus4    G
Carried you on
 
 
[Outro]
          N.C.
Midnight came and I was gone
                                C
The planet shrugged and moved along
              F     E7            Am7     D7
A few people noticed and sang my songs
        F   G           Am
I was alive, the day I died
        F        G     F     G
I was alive the day I died
 
 
[Ending]
