[Verse 1]
He found a sim[C]ple way to express himself
He explained [Em]it in[C] a n[F]ote
And then [C]he settled
down to excuse him[F]self
[C]With the simple[Em] word[C]s he w[G]rote[F]
And when he came [C]around
he was lying [F]down
[G]In a bed tha[Em]t's not[C] his own[F]
And as the doc[C]tor signed
his bill [G]of health
These were [Em]the w[C]ord
s the doctor [F]spoke
He said, [Am]"this, this is your [G]life
And you can either make [C]the
most of what you have
Or you can throw [Em]it al[G]l aw[C]ay[F]
But there are [C]people here
who'd give anything
Just to live [G]another [F]day."
And the pa[C]tient cried, the doctor [G]sighed
As [Em]he turned [C]and walked [F]away
And he left [C]the patient lying there
[G]In the[Em] lonely bed [C]he mad[F]e
[Am]Somewhere something went missing
[G]Sti[Em]ll- life, static, and distant
[C]Steadily losing its feeling

[Verse 2]
[Am]Stale eyes stare at the ceiling
[G]Too[Em] much to say with simple
[C]word[Am]s[Em][C]
[Am][G]
He found a sim[C]ple way
to express him[F]self
[G]And [Em]he wrote it in[C] a s[F]ong
About a bet[C]ter world than the one [G]we [C]have
[G]And the[Em] path that see[G]ms so lon[C]g[F]
It's just [C]another way
to find the words [G]to say
That [Em]the hopel[C]ess days a[G]re g[C]one[F]
And that you take [C]this life
and make the most of it
[G]And find [Em]a mean[C] ing all
[G]your [C]own[F][C][F][C][F]
[Am]This, [C]thi[F]s is you[G]r lif[F]e; [C]you[F]
can ac[C]cept it or change it
If you [F]just make up your mind
[Am][C][F][G][F]
[Am]Somewhere something went missing
[Em]Still- life, static, and distant
[C]Steadily losing its feeling
[Am]Stale eyes starte at the ceiling
[Em]Too much to say with[C] simple words
You found yourself; your
[Am]sight [Em]is c[C]learing
[Am]The [Em]veil is go[C]ne. you
[Am]stand [Em]alone.
