Intro (x4):
A E B D
1st Verse:
A E B D
I found the Holy Bible on a bench outside the courthouse
A E B D
and I am scared because I do not think of God, no
A E
The thoughts that cross my mind
B D
are neither holy, nor divine,
A E B D A E B
just simple human longings for the boy who does not believe
D A E B D
he once believed in me
A E B D
So I walked on and stuffed that heavy new book under my arm
A E B D
and then I got in my car and drove on home
A E
I thought of words he said
B D
'bout where we're going once we're dead
A E
but other worries fill my head
B D A E B
It's selfish and I know I'm wrong
D A E B D
but I'll miss him when he's gone
Chorus:
D
Yeah I still fear the black
A
but there's no looking back
E
and if I'm dying, I'm just dying for you, dear
D
Can't tell which way to go
A
I doubt we'll ever know
E D (pause)
Let's take advantage of the time that we've got here
'Cause time's all we've got here
Interlude:
A E B D
2nd Verse:
A E B D
I made it home, unlocked the door, and tossed that book onto the floor
A E B D
where it sat waiting like I'm waiting for the truth, so
A E B D
I put it in a box under my bed, with all those silly things I've kept
A E B D A E B
and I will leave it there unread, so I can get back to
D A E B D
figuring out how I'll get through today and tomorrow
Chorus:
D
Yeah I still fear the black
A
but there's no looking back
E
and if I'm dying, I'm just dying for you, dear
D
Can't tell which way to go
A
I doubt we'll ever know
E D
Let's take advantage of the time that we've got here
'Cause time's all we've got here
Interlude:
A E B D
Bridge:
D A
And if it's just gonna end, what's the point of it all
E
Call it quits, cut out early, this is surely your fault
D A
When I fall back to you, I am through, I am through
D
Oh but I do, I do, I do
Chorus:
D
Yeah I still fear the black
A
but there's no looking back
E
and if I'm dying, I'm just dying for you, dear
D
Can't tell which way to go
A
I doubt we'll ever know
E D (pause)
Let's take advantage of the time that we've got here
A (hold)
'Cause time's all we've got here
