! !  x2
 When I recall  his parting  words
 Must I accept  his fate
 Or take  myself  far from  this place
 I thought I heard  a black  bell toll
 A little bird  did sing
 Man  has no choice
 When he  wants every  thing
 We'll rise  above  the scarlet tide
 That trickles  down through the mountain
 And separates  the widow  from  the bride
 Man goes beyond  his own  decision
 Gets caught  up in the mechanism
 Of swindlers  who act like kings
 And brokers who  break everything
 The dark of night  was swiftly  fading
 Close to the dawn of day
 Why  would I want  him just to lose  him again
! !  x2
 C! is a chord which I have no idea what to call it, but it just this. 032013

[C] [C]! [C]! [C] x2

When I [C]recall his par[F]ting w[C]ords
Must I acce[C]pt his f[F]ate
Or t[G]ake mys[C]elf far fr[F]om this pl[G]ace
I thought I he[C]ard a blac[F]k bell t[C]oll
A little b[C]ird did s[F]ing
M[G]an has no ch[C]oice
When h[F]e wants e[G]very t[C]hing

We'll r[C]ise abov[G]e the scarlet ti[C]de
That tr[C]ickles down through the mo[F]untain
And sep[C]arates the wi[F]dow fr[G]om the b[C]ride

Man goes bey[C]ond his o[F]wn dec[C]ision
Gets caught[C] up in the mecha[F]nism
Of swin[C]dlers who act like k[G]ings
And brokers w[C]ho break e[F]verything
The dark of n[C]ight was swi[F]ftly fa[C]ding
Close to the dawn of [F]day
W[F]hy would I wa[C]nt him just to l[G]ose him ag[C]ain

[C] [C]! [C]! [C] x2

C! is a chord which I have no idea what to call it, but it just this. 032013
