[Verse 1]
 
G
I saw you spiraling
C G
I saw you spinning back in time
D Am7
Through all your memories
D G D Am7
Such a quiet disease
G D Am7
You had forgotten me
C G D Am7
But I'll always remember you dancing
G C
Across the kitchen in your orange handkerchief
D G
Such a quiet disease
 
[Pre-chorus]
Em D
I pray that when you dream
G D
You would remember everything
C G
You know it all comes back to you
C D
In one conscience dream
Em D
Maybe you'd sing and
G D
Put words to all the things
C
That you think of in the day
Em D7
But forgotten how to say
 
[Chorus]
C D G
Nothing lasts forever
D Em D
Not even the mountains
C D G
Some day they will be swept away and swallowed by the sea
D Em D
We all shall be blessedly released
 
[Verse 2]
Am7
Life is so precious
G Am7
It's as fragile as a dream
C G Am7
And in the moment we all grow our wings
G D Am7
I wish to sing as if no one's listening
G Am7
I wish to dance as if no one is watching
C G
I wish to dance as if no one is watching
Am7 G D
And i give thanks for my dreams
Am7
You can rob me of my sight
G D
And you can poison my bloodstream
Am7
But as long as i can dream
G
Then life is worth living
 
[Solo]
 
D G C D Em G D7 Em G C D Em C Cmaj7 D
 
[Chorus]
C D G
Nothing lasts forever
D Em D
Not even the mountains
C D G
Some day they will be swept away and swallowed by the sea
D Em D
We all shall be blessedly released
 
[Outro]
C D G
Nothing lasts forever
D Em D
Not even the sun
C D G
For all we know it could have burned out light years ago
D Em D
Darkness remains the hardest thing for us to out run
 
[Repeat Intro]
