_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ My death waits like _ _ [C] _ _ an older wife _ _ So _ _ _ confident _ [C] I'll [Em] go his way
_ _ _ Whistle to him _ _ _ _ and [D] the passing time _ My [G] _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ death [A] waits like _ a _ [G] Bible _ truth
_ [C] _ _ [F] At the funeral _ _ of [Am] my youth _ Are _ [F] we proud for that? _
_ _ [G] And the passing _ time _ _ [Abm] My _ _ _ death waits [Gb] like _ _ _ _ a [Abm] wretched night _ _ _ _
As _ [Gb] surely _ _ as our love [Abm] is bright _ _ _ _
_ [E] [Gb] Let's not think about _ [Ebm] the _ [Bb] _ [B] passing _ time _
_ _ [Em] _ _ But whatever _
_ [D] lies _ behind the door _ [C] _ There _ [A] is nothing much [B] to do _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ _ Angel or devil [E] _ _ I don't care
But _ [C] far [G] in front of that door _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ There [B] is you _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _
My death waits like _ a _ beggar blind _ _ _ Who sees the world _ through an unlit mind
_ _ _ Show him a dime _ [F] for the passing time
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
My death [C] waits there _ _ between [Bb] your thighs _ Your _ [Ab] cool _ fingers _ will close [Cm] my eyes _
_ _ _ [Ab] Let's think of that _ _ _ in the [Bb] passing _ time
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _
My death [A] waits _ to _ _ [Bm] allow my friends _ A _ _ [A] few good times _ before [Bm] it ends _ _ _ _
[E] So [A] let's drink to that _ _ [Gb] and the passing _ _ _ _ time
[Gm] _ _ _ _ But whatever [F] lies behind the door _
_ [Cm] _ _ _ [Eb] There is nothing much [D] to do _ _ _ _ _
_ [Gm] _ _ _ _ Angel or devil [F] _ _ I don't care
_ [Eb] _ _ For in front of that door _ _ _ There _ [D]
is you _ _ _ _ _
_ [Gm] _ _ My death waits there _ _ _ _ among the leaves
_ _ _ _ And _ magicians, _ _ mysterious _ sleeves _ _ _ _ Rabbits and dogs [F] and the passing time _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ My death [C] waits _ _ there _ among [Bb] the flowers _ Where _ [Ab] the blackest shadow, _ blackest shadow [Cm] _ cowers _ _ _
[Ab] Let's pick lilacs for _ the [Bb] passing _ time _ _
_ [Bm] _ _ _ My death waits [A] there _ in a double [Bm] bed _ _ _ _
Sails [A] of _ _ oblivion in my [Bm] head _ _ So pull [A] up the sheets against _ _ the [Gb] passing _ _ time
_ [Gm] _
_ _ But _ [C] whatever [F] lies behind the door _ _ [Cm] _
_ _ There is nothing [D] much to do
_ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _
_ _ Angel or devil _ [F]
I _ don't care
_ _ [Eb] _
For in front of that door _ _ There _ is [N] you
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Thank you
