Verse 1
(B flat major) There was a man back in ninetyfive
Whose heart ran out of summers
But before he died, I ask (G minor) ed him
Wait, what's the sense in life?
Come (E flat major) over me, come (F major) over me?
(B flat major) He said, son why you got to sing that tune?
Catch a (B flat major) Dylan song,
or some eclipse of the moon?
Let an (G minor) angel swing and make you swoon
Then (E flat major) you will see, (F major) you will see
