corrections by bdtguitar

[Gb]Seems like once upon a time [Db]ago [Gb]I was where I was supposed to b[Db]e
[Gb]My vision was true and my h[Db]eart was too There was no [Bbm]end to what I could [Ab]dream
[Gb]I walked like a hero into the setting s[Db]un [Gb]Everyone called out my n[Db]ame
[Gb]Death to me was just a m[Db]ystery I was too [Bbm]busy raising up [Ab]Cain

CHORUS
[Gb]But nothing lasts fo[Db]rever [Gb]Your best efforts don't always p[Db]ay
[Gb]Sometimes you get sick and don't get [Db]better
[Bbm]That's when life is short [Gb]even in its [Ab]longest [Db]days

[Gb]So you pretend not to n[Db]otice [Gb]That everything has c[Db]hanged
[Gb]The way that you look and the [Db]friends you had So you [Bbm]keep on acting the [Ab]same
[Gb]But deep down in your s[Gb]oul [Gb]You know you, you got no [Db]flame
[Gb]And who knows then which w[Db]ay to go
[Bbm]That's when life is short [Gb]even in its [Ab]longest [Db]days

BRIDGE
[Bbm]All I got here is a [Ab]rear view mirror
[Bbm]Reflections of where I've [Ab]been
So you [Bbm]tell yourself I'll be back up on top some[Ab] day
But you [Gb]know there's nothing waiting up there for you any[Ab]way

CHORUS
[Gb]But nothing lasts fo[Db]rever [Gb]Your best efforts don't always p[Db]ay
[Gb]Sometimes you get sick and don't get [Db]better
[Bbm]That's when life is short [Gb]even in its [Ab]longest [Db]days
[Bbm]That's when life is short [Gb]even in its [Ab]longest [Db]days
