See below for chorus and chords

[C] [C] Well!

Di[D]dn't you look sharp in your b[G]oots when you met me on the p[C]ath? Oh
T[D]wo tone to downtown Beir[G]ut but only half way b[C]ack. Oh
Em G
Stealing bits of wisdom from the shelf
[Em]Turned prisons into prisms on the se[C]lf. Oh [D]Oh

A[D]nd what do they know about the sp[G]ring time of me and y[C]ou? Ooh
B[D]orn in the midst of the l[G]ong hot summer we lived thr[C]ough. Ooh
Em G
Did they see you run for every rhyme?
D[Em]id we run for running out of ti[C]me? Oh [D]Oh

Chorus:
When even heroes have to die
No one lives forever, love
And no one's wise to try

[D5]Oh oh oh [E5]Ah ah ah
[D5]Oh oh oh [E5]Ah ah ah etc.

Play D5 / E5 through the solo

Em G
Adding our own wisdom to the shelf
S[Em]tealing bits of paper, we had he[C]alth. Oh [D]Oh

W[D]orking away did we m[G]iss the passing of the ti[C]me? Oh
I[D]n your own flame you can w[G]ither, but your passions still outsh[C]ine. Oh
Em G
Did you read the writing on the wall?
P[Em]rophesying a doom upon us a[C]ll. Oh [D]Oh

Chorus:
That even heroes have to die
No one lives forever, love
And no one's wise to try

[D5]Oh oh oh [E5]Ah ah ah
[D5]Oh oh oh [E5]Ah ah ah etc.

Em G
But hidden in the writing on the wall
M[Em]any are the beauties of the f[C]all.
