company of friends Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]When I die, let them judge me
by [D]my company [G]of friends
Let them know me as the footprints
that I [C]left upon [G]the sand
Let them [C]laugh for all [G]the laughter
Let them [Em]cry for laughter'[D]s end
But when I [G]die, let them judge me by
[D]my company of friend[G]s

[Verse 2]
When I [G]die, let them toast to all
[D]the things that I belie[G]ve
Let them raise a glass to consciousness
And not [C]spill a drop for [G]grief
Let the [C]bubbles rise [G]at midnight
Let their [Em]tongues get light [D]as thieves
And when I [G]die,
let them toast [D]to all the things that I [G]believe

[Verse 3]
I [G]believe in restless hunger
I be[C]lieve in red [G]balloons
I be[C]lieve in private [G]thunder
In the end I do be[D]lieve

[Verse 4]
I [G]believe in inspiration
I be[C]lieve in lightning [G]bugs
I be[C]lieve in slow [G]creation
In the end I do be[D]lieve

[Verse 5]
I [G]believe in ink on paper
I be[C]lieve in lips on [G]ears
I be[C]lieve what's shared [G]is savored
In the end I do be[D]lieve

[Verse 6]
I be[G]lieve in work on Sundays
I be[C]lieve in raising [G]barns
I be[C]lieve in wasting [G]Mondays
In the end I do be[D]lieve

[Verse 7]
I [G]believe in intuition
I be[C]lieve in being [G]wrong
I be[C]lieve in contradiction
[G]In the end I do belie[D]ve

[Verse 8]
I [G]believe in living smitten
I be[C]lieve all hearts [G]will mend
I be[C]lieve our book is written
[G]By our[D] com[G]pany of[D][G][C]
[G][C][G][Em][D][G][D]
[G]friends
