[F#] [C#]
[G#] [C#] The day is [D#] done, the pines are drawn, [Fm] the sound of [F#] afternoon is [Fm]
gone.
[D#m] [C#] They'll call us [D#m] all, as hot they [Fm] soar, but everyone [F#] has left [B] for [C#] home.
[F#] And they'll sleep in little hens, [Fm] the sun's burned inside their beds.
[D#m] You and I will stay, and watch the [A#m] sun [C#] fade away.
The parade here, [D#m] the [Fm] buccaneer, the liar, the [C#] man who would be [Fm]
king.
[D#m] [C#] [D#m] Cavalier, [Fm] crocketeer, the one who [C#] knows [B] only suffering.
[F#] As the cannons gather rust, [Fm] all their castles [A#] turn to dust.
[D#m] You and I will stay, to see them [E] all fade away.
We are all in the beginning of [F#] the way, [B]
of the good [F#] and the wrong and I [B] remember.
[D#] [A#m] Sometimes I want to hide [D#m] myself away, [A#m] but I don't deserve [D#m] escape.
We [G#] must go on.
[C#]
And we'll [D#m] rise, mountains [Fm] tall, the earth will [C#] turn itself upside [Fm]
down.
[D#] [C#] We have seen it all [Fm] before, we will [F#] always be [B] around.
[F#] In a hundred million years, [Fm] when the planet disappears, [C#] you and [D#m] I will stay, and watch the [G#] world fade [F#]
away.
[Bm] [F#] In a million trillion [Fm] years, when the suns [A#] all disappear, you and [D#m] I will stay, and watch it all [C#] fade away.
Fade away.
Fade away.
Fade away.
