On the Gvery day I die
The very Cmlast of my desires
Is that you tGake my broken body
And coCmmmit it to the fire
And then Gwhen the fire is finished
Scrape the Cmashes in a tin
Take them Gdown to Londons drinking reservoCmirs
And throw them Fin
And then sGpecks infinitesimal of Cmmy mortal remains
Will slide down G7 million throats and into Cm7 million veins
And I will Gcreep through their capillaries to the Cmmarrow of their bones
And they will Gwake to bright new mornings and then Cmwordlessly theyll knFow
That I remGain Dm
I am remCmembered F
I remGain Dm
I am reCmmembered F
So these G7 million innocents
They will Cmhave me in their blood
And when they Gdie theyll burn their bodies
Or be Cmburied in the mud
And I will Gspread through streams and rivers like a vCmirus through a host
From the Ghamlets to the cities from the Cmrivers to the coast
And from Gthere into the channel across the Cmgreat Atlantic Ocean
And ever oGnwards to the new world
Through the Cmwaters gentle motions
Until Gparts of me are part of every Cmland mass every sea
In the Grain, up on your crops and in the Cmvery air you bFreath
I reGmain Dm
I am reCmmembered F
I rGemain Dm
I am reCmmembered F
I remGain
And all the things I Dmlove will be wCmashed away in the rain F
I reGmain Dm Cm F G

D*
Im not convinced of the existence of these things that dont exist
Yeah by JEbewish boys with big ideas and scratches on their wrist
D*
By a loving or a vengeful God
Or one who condescends
Wholl wash his haEbnds down in the mire among the misery of men
Or by Fever turning circles hanging timeless in the sky
Like a Gdream catcher distracting from the fact youre gonna die
D*
But I place one foot before the other
Confident because
I know that Ebeverything we are right now is everything that was
That Watt DTyler, Woody, Guthrie, Dostoevsky and Davy Jones
Are all disEbsolved into the ether and have crept into my bones
And all the Fcells in all the lines upon the backs of both my hands
Were once cDarved into the details of two feet upon the sand
We reGmain Dm
We are reCmmembered F
We reGmain Dm
We are reCmmembered F
We reGmain
And all the things we lDmove
Will be wCmashed away in the rain F
We reGmain Dm Cm F
