"Sickness Unto Death"
one of the most well-written songs of all time. it's a shame these guys aren't more
popular than they are⦠also the song is obviously a lot more complicated than this, these
are just what I've found to be the most basic chord/bass notes to create your own
interpretation of the song

Capo 2 (all chords relative to capo)
Fold man in your rocking chair
Cyou wake up, you've been living alonAme
after all these years
Csurrounded by these shards of mirrors
Fand how'd it get so quiet here,
Cyou wonder, where did everyone go?Am C
Fyou tried so hard to make people remembeCr you for something
Amyou were not C
Fand if they so remember you then sometChing else will certainly
Amget forgotten C
Flife is for the living
Ci've heard tell that it is while we are young Am
in the morning sun
Cyou take every year as it comes
Fbut when your life is over
Call those years fold up like an accordion Am
Cthey collapse just like a broken lung F G
Fnow i've only got one organ left and thCis old bag of bones it is
Amfailing me C
Fi try to tell people that i'Cm dying only they don't Ambelieve me C
Fthey say we're all dying,C G
Fthat we're all dying C G
Fbut if you are dyiCng, why aren't you scareAmd? C
why aren't you scaFred
Clike i'mG scared? C
Fi read somewhere that when you face eternitCy you face it alone
Amno matter what you thought
Cor what you had or you had not
Funless you put yourself in God
Cbut tell me God oh where did you go? Am C
Fevery bitter night into an empty roomC i plead my case
Amevery night i pray that in the morninCg when i wake
Fi'll be in a familiar place and find thaCt i'm recovered and i'm sane Am
Cand i'll remember everything
Fi'll remember what i wCas like before that bug bAmit me C
Fand when i have my childhood back
Ci'll tear every page out of my book
Amand place them in an urn
Cstrike a match and watch them burn
Fthen i'll hold the front cover
Cagainst the back cover and look Am
Cyou'll see
Feternity will smiCle Gon meC
