ntro one 4 bar round of arpeggio
Verse - 1 x 8 bars
v1. Too fast the time approaching
The golden age is done
Eternity encroaching
In the shadow of a gun
Earth can live without you
Look beyond your life
Friends will shine on for you
Love cuts like a knife
New chord sequence four bars
No matter how you play it
Everything ends up… Blue…

Verse - 1 x 8 bars
v2. Some folks they born pretty
Some folks born with luck
Some folks got the brains to figure
Some don't give a f**k
Whatever your decisions
Whatever you defend
The love of friends and family
Is what matters in the end

But no matter how you play it
Everything ends up… Blue…

Middle - down sweep chords for 8 bars - repeated
There's a time and a tide in the story of man
In the journey from cradle to grave
When occasion trumps will, and luck beats down skill
And there’s barely a Soul left to save
Follow the winds when they change in your favour
Ride with the tide to your dreams
Trust deeds and action, and never behaviour
For no one is quite who they seem

rat Middle for instrumental

Verse - 1 x 8 bars
v3. Face your fear of living
The past is in the past
Learn to be forgiving
Today could be your last
Living in the moment
Loving hard and strong
Desire brings salvation
Cos the fire is never wrong

Rpt new sequence x 2
We find ourselves a purpose
Give meaning to what we do
But no matter how you play it
Everything ends up… Blue…

Rpt intro for 8 bars
Everything ends up… Blue…
Everything ends up… Blue…
