Shock, disbelief stained the blackest of mornings

Now that it's done, the pain lingers on in the world

Verse 1:
Am G
Life was an emotional knife
Em F
It cut the flesh, it hit the bone
G Am
It made reality a web of lies
Am G
Life was a perpetual high
Em F
Up on the wire without a net
G Am
He couldn't balance so he took a dive
Pre-chorus 1:
F C G Am
When Vegas called he got the message far away
F C G
They begged this worn out king to play
F C G Am
The mighty fall, inside the measure of the day
F C E
It's pitiful, it's all in vain

Verse 2:
Am G
Life and its unbearable fire
Em F
The night his mother passed away
G Am
He poured his soul into her funeral pyre
Am G
Life, through unforgettable eyes
Em F
For though he tried to face the dark
G Am
He lost the battle but he never dies
Pre-chorus 2:
F C G Am
He had it all somehow he let it slip away
F C G
Much of his death is unexplained
F C G Am
Now just a memory shines out beyond the grave
F C E
Remembers all that now remains
Chorus 2:
Am F G Am
Shock, disbelief stained the blackest of mornings
