Em (x15)
This is umm... This is called a quiet song.
Shh.
This is something that we used to do a long, long, long, long time ago, and we thought,
as this is the last show, we'd like to do it tonight.
[Instrumental]
Em Em7 Em6 Cmaj7 (x2)
Be quiet...
[Intro]
Em Em7 Em6 Cmaj7 (x2)
Thank you.
[Verse]
Em Em7 Em6
My death waits like
Cmaj7 Em Em7
an old roué
Em6 Cmaj7 Em
So confident; I'll go his way
Em7 Em6 Cmaj7
Whistle to him
D
And the passing time
G A G
My death waits like a bible truth
F Am Am/G
At the funeral of my youth
F G
Are we proud for that and the passing time
Abm Gb Abm
My death waits like a witch at night
Gb Abm
As surely as our love is bright
Gb B
Let's not think about the passing time
[Chorus]
Em D
But whatever lies behind the door
C C/B B
There is nothing much to do
Em D
Angel or devil, I don't care
C C/B Am Am/G
For, in front of that door
B
There is you
[Hook]
Bb C
[Verse]
Gm
My death waits like a beggar blind
Gm
Who sees the world through an unlit mind
Gm F
Throw him a dime for the passing time
Bb C Bb
My death waits there between your thighs
Ab Cm
Your cool fingers will close my eyes
Ab Bb
Let's think of that, and the passing time
Bm A Bm
My death waits to allow my friends
A Bm
A few good times before it ends
A Gb
So let's drink to that, and the passing time
[Chorus]
Gm F
But what ever lies behind the door
Eb D
There is nothing much to do
Gm F
Angel or devil, I don't care
Eb
For, in front of that door
D
There is you
[Verse]
Gm
My death waits there, among the leaves
Gm
In magician's mysterious sleeves
Gm F
Rabbits and dogs and the passing time
Bb C Bb
My death waits there among the flowers
Ab
Where the blackest shadow
Cm
Blackest shadow cowers
Ab Bb
So let's pick lilacs for the passing time
Bm A Bm
My death waits there, in a double bed
A Bm
Sails of oblivion at my head
A Gb
So pull up your seats against the passing time
[Chorus]
Gm F
But what ever lies behind the door
Eb D
There is nothing much to do
Gm F
Angel or devil, I don't care
Eb
For, in front of that door
There is...
