[Intro]
C#m  E  A
Forgive me C#mnow
For I have sEold my soul for Agold
Washed up C#mon shore
A thousand Emiles away Afrom home
Just as C#mI begin to settle Einto these Askin and bones, alone
I C#mfind the answers to questions EI have nAever known
[Chorus]
Is there lC#mife beyond the grave?
And wiEll I mAake the same mistakes, day after C#mday?
There Emust be a bAetter way
[Verse]
Running from C#mtime to try and keep myEself Aalive
ReleaC#mse my pride to keep from pEushing the lAight aside
Now as C#mI begin to let this Ein
I must Akeep the best in mind
And removC#me myself from the things that are Ewasting my tAime
[Chorus 2]
I know that C#mone of these days
I'll Efinally sAee you face to face at the golden gC#mates
Will you tEake me or wAill I fade into the graC#mve?
I know these Ewords won't hold any Aweight
But please don't C#mturn away
Don't turn aAway from me
[Bridge]
Is there C#mlife beyond the grave?
And will I Emake the same mistakes, day after Aday?
There must be a bBetter way
I know that C#mone of these days
I'll finally Esee you face to face at the golden Agates
Will you take me or wBill I fade into the grave?
Is there C#mlife beyond the grave?
And will I Emake the same mistakes, day after Aday?
There must be a bBetter way
I know that C#mone of these days
I'll finally sEee you face to face at the golden Agates
Will you take me or wBill I fade into the grave?
