Fearless people
Am7* C/F*
Careless needle
Am7* C/F*
Harsh words spoken
And [Am11/D] lives are [Fmaj7] broken
Am7* C/F*
Forceful aging
Am7* C/F*
Help me I'm fading
Am7* C/F*
Heaven’s waiting it’s
[Am11/D] Time to move [Fmaj7] on [Fmaj7]
[Fm7] Crossing that [C/E] bridge
With lessons I've [Gm7] learned
Playing with [F] fire
And not getting [Fm7] burned
[Fm7] I may not [C/E] know what you're going [Gm7] through
But time is the [F] space
Between me and [F] you
Am7* Am7*
Life carries on It goes on
Am7*
Just say die
C/F* Am7*
And that would be pessimis - tic
In your mind

We can walk across wa - ter
Please don't cry
C/F* Am11/D
It’s just a prayer for the dying
Fmaj7 - F Fmaj7 - F
I just don't know what's got into me
[Fm7] Crossing that [C/E] bridge
With lessons I've [Gm7] learned
Playing with [F] fire
And not getting [Fm7] burned
[Fm7] I may not [C/E] know what you're going [Gm7] through
When time is the [F] space
Between me and [Fm7] you
There is a [C/E] light through that win - [Gm7] dow
Hold on say [F] yes
While people say [F] no

[Fm7] I’m crossing that [C/E] bridge
With lessons I've [Gm7] learned [F]
[Fm7] I’m playing with [C/E] fire
And not getting [Gm7] burned [F]
[Fm7] I may not [C/E] know what you're going [Gm7] through
But time is the [F] space
Between me and [Fm7] you
There is a [C/E] light, through that win - [Gm7] dow
Hold on say [F] yes
While people say [Fmaj7] no

'Cause life carries on
Am7* Am7*
It goes on It goes on
Woohoo [Fmaj7] woohoo
It carries [Fmaj7] on [Fmaj7]
Fmaj7 Fmaj7 /
When nothing else matters
Nothing else [Fmaj7] matters [Fmaj7]
I just don't [Fmaj7] know what's got into me

We need a prayer for the dying
For the dying//
