All Is Vanity

G
Wisdom is good, it puts eyes in your
 head
         Em
But it's foolish to think it'll save
 you from death
         D
Both the fool and the wise man are 
numbering their breaths
           C                       
And in the end, all this wisdom is 
            G
just meaningless

[Verse 2]
G
Pleasure is nice, the taste and 
touch
        Em
But with all your indulgence, you 
can't get enough
        D
You can chase every pleasure around 
every bend
           C                       
But in the end all this chasin' is 
             G
just chasin' wind

[Chorus]
Em   D         C       Em   D 
Ooo--oh all is vanity, ooo--oh
        C
 all is vanity
Em        D                C    
You feel eternity and it's 
           D
beating in your chest
       Em           D             
So you know in your soul it's not 
C
all meaningless

recording*]
G
Workin is good, Money keeps you fed
        Em
But you can’t take it with you When 
you are dead
      D
When all that you made Will all turn
 to rust
       C                           
In the end it won’t matter When you
         G
 turn to dust

[Verse 4]
G
Beauty is sweet to the beholder's 
eye
        Em
And you know it when you see it 
'cause it echoes the Light
    D
But age and opinion bid beauty 
goodbye
           C                    
And in the end the beholder just 
 G
changes his mind

[Chorus]
Em   D         C       Em   D 
Ooo--oh all is vanity, ooo--oh
        C
 all is vanity
Em        D                C    
You feel eternity and it's 
           D
beating in your chest
       Em           D             
So you know in your soul it's not 
C
all meaningless


[Bridge]
Em          D             C     
If there is restlessness, could 
         D
there be rest?
Em          D       C            
If there is hunger, could there be 
  D
fullness?
Em          D             C     
If there is restlessness, there 
         D
must be rest
Em          D       C            
If there is hunger, there must be 
 D
fullness!

Em        D                C    
You feel eternity and it's 
           D
beating in your chest
       Em           D             
So you know in your soul it's not
