[D] [Em]
Just another rusty brother, [D] seeing his old [Em] role replayed.
Looking in the world [G] like a broken mirror, [C] seeing [Bm] his old face [Em] displayed.
They come and go, come and go, [D] why'd you [Em] advertise goodbye?
Living a lie [G] will lay you low.
[Bm] What can I tell you, what can I sell [Em] you, but the truth will make you high.
[Am] Death is unreal, [Em] that's the way I feel.
[C] There's more [G] to be [D] revealed.
[Am] Lovers and friends [Em] meet again and again.
On [E] the day you're old, on the day you're old, on the day [D] you're old, [Am]
that's how I [Em] feel.

[Am] [G] [Em]
Death is unreal, that's the way I feel.

[Am] Lovers and friends [Em] meet again and again.
[E] On the day you're old, on the day you're old, on the [D] day you're old, [Am]
[Em] that's how I feel.
I will see my memories, [D] likely let me [Em] go.
I know [D] that we [G] will all [Am] be, [C] but time passed fast [Em] and slow.
Age long, cradle strong, [D] almost had me sleeping [Em] for good.
If not [D] for the plan [G] of the [Am] magic man, [C] who finally helped [Bm] me out of [Em] the wood.
