CAPO ON 4TH
C G
Seems like once upon a time ago
C G
I was where I was supposed to be
C G
My vision was true and my heart was too
C D
There was no end to what I could dream
C G
I walked like a hero into the setting sun
C G
Everyone called out my name
C G
Death to me was just a mystery
C D
I was too busy raising up Cain
C G
But nothing lasts forever
C G
Your best efforts don't always pay
C
Sometimes you get sick
G
And don't get better
C
That's when life is short
D G
Even in its longest days
C G
So you pretend not to notice
C G
That everything has changed
C
The way that you look
G
And the friends you once had
C D

So you keep on acting the same
C G
But deep down in your soul
C G
You know you, you got no flame
C G
And who knows then which way to go
C D G
Life is short even in its longest days
C
All I got here
D
Is a rear view mirror
C D
Reflections of where I've been
C G
So you tell yourself I'll be back up on top some day
C D
But you know there's nothing waiting up there for you anyway
C G
Nothing lasts forever
C G
And your best efforts don't always pay
C
Sometimes you get sick
G
And you don't get better
C
That's when life is short
D G
Even in its longest days
C
Life is short
D G
Even in its longest days
