G               Em              
Back when I was young enough to 
G                 D
know from where I came,
Em              C              
I saw my love be spat upon and 
Em      D       G
shouted down in shame.
G                       Em       
Well I hung my head and shed a 
           G                 D
tear, when I went to change my name,
Em                    C          
But his honor told me don't 'cha 
                 Em     D        
fear, because it always ends the 
G
same.

[Chorus]
G                  Em             
It always ends the same, he said, 
G               D
always ends the same.
   Em                  C       
Ah, remember dear this too shall 
               Em     D       G
pass, and it always ends the same.

[Verse 2]
G                  Em            
Well I was feeling so alone, when
     G            D
 the congregation sang,
Em                  C            
Of Jesus Christ and Lucifer, and 
    Em         D       G
the price that I would pay.
G                        Em  
But the preacher told me not to 
                  G              
fear, for they know not what they 
    D
say,
Em                  C            
Yeah the history is on your side,
        Em     D        G
 and it always ends the same.

[Chorus]
G                  Em             
It always ends the same, he said, 
 G              D
always ends the same.
    Em                 C       
Ah, remember dear this too shall 
               Em     D        G
pass, and it always ends the same.

[Verse 3]
        G             Em         
Now the fishes on the TV fly, in 
G               D
circles all the same,
     Em              C            
Like little children terrified of 
Em        D     G
what they can't explain.
    G                Em           
But when the suburb and the sky, 
   G             D
are both awash in flame,
       Em         C               
Oh the television won't survive, 
      Em     D        G
and it always ends the same.

[Chorus]
G                  Em             
It always ends the same, you know,
 G               D
 always ends the same.
    Em                 C       
Oh, remember dear this too shall 
               Em     D        G
pass, and it always ends the same.

[Verse 4]
    G                Em            
And when I'm finally old enough to 
G                 D
learn to play the game,
   Em                 C      
Oh the dinosaurs will roam the 
             Em     D        
earth, and resume their bloody 
    G
reign.
    G                 Em          
But when I hear their victory 
         G           D
song, I will hum the old refrain,
   Em             C               
No life can live forever on, and 
  Em      D       G
it always ends the same.

[Chorus]
   G               Em              
It always ends the same, you know, 
G                D
always ends the same.
    Em                 C       
Oh, remember dear this too shall 
               Em     D        G
pass, and it always ends the same.

   G               Em             
It always ends the same, he said, 
G               D
always ends the same.
    Em                 C       
Oh, remember dear this too shall 
               Em     D        G
pass, and it always ends the same.
