Intro 1
(D major)
Verse 1
And so another (D major) letter falls
A chime goes off again
A thud (G major) upon the doormat, like a knife
Reads out the story of your life (D major)
A view of every shade of grey
The buildings loom above (G major)
No (E minor) way is the only (G major) way

Verse 2
White flags are blowing nearer
(A major) I was busy doing nothing much
Not hurting anyone at all (G major)
And then the big announcement here
That you were counting down the years (D major)
Interlude 1
When will I wake up? Oh
(D major) (G major) (E minor) (G major) (D major)
Verse 3
Too much of (D major) anything's too much
It's not all sex and sea
A sticky (G major) hand is working overtime (E minor)
(G major) Trying (E minor) to make (G major) the perfect crime (D major)
A golden spoon or destitute
The oldest tale of all
(G major) Someone (E minor) (G major) loses (E minor) and someone (G major) wins
And (E minor) on and on (G major) forever
Verse 4
(A major) I was hearing sounds from all around
Was almost back to being myself
(G major) But then your booming
voice came loud
Dispelling all my efforts
Sometimes (A major) it's a must to deviate
Some things are better left unsaid
(G major) While I was ticking off my fears
There you were counting
down the years (D major)
When will I wake up? Oh (A major) (D major)
(A major) (D major)
Interlude 2
(G major) (E minor) (G major) (C sharp major)
Verse 5
Don't (D major) die yet
Don't die yet
Don't die (G major) yet
Don't die (A major) yet
Don't (D major) die yet
Don't die yet
Don't die (G major) yet
No, don't (A major) die yet
How (D major) do I get through this?
How do I get through this?
How (G major)
How (A major)
Don't (D major) die yet
Don't die yet (Your eyes
are laughing)
Don't (G major) die yet (They're laughing)
Don't die yet (Your eyes
are (A major) (D major) laughing)
Don't (A major) die (D major) yet
(They're laughing)
Don't die yet (Your eyes
are laughing)
Don't die (G major) yet (They're laughing)
No, don't (A major) die yet
(D major) Don't die yet
Don't die yet
(G major) Don't die yet
Don't die yet
(A major) Don't (D major) die yet
Don't die yet
Don't (G major) die yet
No, don't (A major) die yet
