Prologue

[G]In the event of my de[F9]mise
Be sure to include this state[G]ment
When you are bent on closing my [F9]eyes
Thinking about what my life [G]meant
Alone on a hill back in '6[F9]5
Things looked a lot like chan[G]ging
Singing our songs that we harmo[F9]nized
Dreaming of worlds rearran[G]ging

And I don't know why I'm [C]singing [D]to[G]night
[Em]Maybe it's time someone told [D]you
[G]Just because you say [C]you've [D]seen the [G]light
[Em]Doesn't mean nobody [D]sold [G]you

[G]I can remember all of your [F9]smiles
During the demonstra[G]tions
Taking on what seemed like the whole [F9]world
Igniting the hearts of our na[G]tions
And to[C]gether we sang our [D]victory [Em]songs
Though we were worlds ap[Am]art [D]
[G]Every thing then has now passed a[F9]way
Except for the love in my hear[G]t

Sitting at home on computerized [F9]beds
Trying to come to conclusi[G]ons
Seeing reflections from rose-colored [F9]heads
Ignoring the states of illu[G]sion
Drunk in a world of ma[C]teri[D]al [G]wealth
[Em]No one can notice you fal[D]ling
[G]Fantastic flights once [C]good [D]for your [G]health
[Em]Now make you deaf to your [D]cal[G]ling

[C]And all alone the [D]prophet [Em]groans
With words as yet un[Am]seen [D]
[G]Who'll be awake when the master re[F9]turns
Who will be lost in their dreams [G]

So in the event of my de[F9]mise
Be sure to include this state[G]ment
Only the words of love kept a[F9]live
Are worthy of not being wa[G]sted
