Red Hot Chili Peppers - Brendans Death Song

D       C            Am     Em              G   
Live or die before I get it done will you decide?    
D       C                   Am   Em                 G    
Take my words and turn them into signs they will survive    
          D    C        Am Em            G    
because a long time ago I  knew not to deprive    
     D        C              Am   Em                  G    
It's safe out there now your everywhere just like the sky    
    D     C                     Am    Em                G    
And you I love you, you are the lucid dream you are the ride    
             D    C                  Am   Em                G    
And when you hear this you know it's your jam it's your goodbye    
     
     
G                        Cmaj7                     Em    
Like I said you know I'm almost dead, you know I'm almost gone    
             G                        Cmaj7                 Em    
and when the drummer drums it's gonna play my song to carry me along    
G                        Cmaj7                     Em    
Like I said you know I'm almost dead, you know I'm almost gone    
             G                      Cmaj7               Em    
and when the boatman comes to ferry me away to where we all belong    
     
     
D      C                  Am      Em                 G    
We all cross when we were feeling lost it's just the time    
      D     C               Am    Em            G    
Could terry cry the day her lover died she recognized    
            D    C             Am   Em              G    
Because you gave her a life of real love it's no surprise    
    D          C            Am        Em               G    
The nights are long but the years are short when your alive    
D        C                Am  Em            G    
Way back when we’ll never be again it was a time,    
           D   C              Am  Em              G    
It's gonna get you; so glad I met you to walk the line    
     
     
G                        Cmaj7                     Em    
Like I said you know I'm almost dead, you know I'm almost gone    
             G                        Cmaj7                 Em    
and when the drummer drums it's gonna play my song to carry me along    
G                        Cmaj7                     Em    
Like I said you know I'm almost dead, you know I'm almost gone    
             G                      Cmaj7               Em    
and when the boatman comes to ferry me away to where we all belong

G                        Cmaj7                Em

G                       Cmaj7                Em
