Dance While The Sky Crashes Down
Jason Webley
Am
(início)
Am G Am E Am Am The flowers by your bed are wilting. E The sun is setting in the west. E A fog is covering your eyes, E Your stockings are attracting flies, Am E Am Decay is nibbling at the boards on which you rest. Am There's someone waiting at your window, Dm Familiar face without a name. E One night he'll creep in like the mist, E To touch your forehead with a kiss, Am E Am And lead you back into the void from whence you came.
Chorus
F E Am We've all begun to die, and don't know what to do. F E Am Since it hurts to pray to God, when God is dying too. F E Am Takes strength to laugh, when you start to drown. Dm Am E Am E Am And we dance while the sky crashes down. Am Am Like that the earth begins to quiver, Am E And all the oceans turn to black. E A ship of maniacs with knives, E Are playing Blackjack with their lives, Am E Am To kill the time until the giant rats attack. Am It's raining leprosy and acid. Dm The saints were taken out and shot. E When someone proffers you a pear, E You sink your teeth in unaware, Am E Am That just beneath the skin lies pestilence and rot.
Chorus
F E Am We've all begun to die, and don't know what to do. F E Am E Am Since it hurts to pray to God, when God is dying too. F E Am Takes strength to laugh, when you start to drown. Dm Am E Am E Am And we dance while the sky crashes down.
Bridge
Am Dm E E Am E Am Am Dm E Am A7 Dm Am E Am All that now breathes, and all that you love, Dm Am E E All that we weave, will find its way back to the dust. Am A band of skeletons is playing, E Don't act like you don't know the tune. E Your part is echoed in the path, E Of every dead leaf blowing past, Am E Am Against a counterpoint reflected off the moon. Am There is a banquet at the table, Dm Exotic cheeses wines and cakes. E And every one of us is damned, E Until we start to understand, Am E Am That living is to gorge ourselves at our own wakes.
Chorus
F E Am We've all begun to die, and don't know what to do. F E Am E Am Since it hurts to pray to God, when God is dying too. F E Am Takes strength to laugh, when you start to drown. Dm Am E Am E Am And we dance while the sky crashes down. F E Am When the stakes are high, best to play the clown. Dm Am C F G Am And we dance while the sky crashes down.
