This is a really easy song by a really great band.


Dm  F  C  A7

         Dm
It's the end of an era
  F
I guess we weren't as strong as we thought
C
all the shops are closing
       A7
at the end of our block

Dm
streets paved in litter
    F
are all that we have
        C
no more shiny things that mother brings

so hang it on the wall
      A7
let's weep and weep

           Bb
there's an anger inside me
C             A7
begging to be released
         Dm           C         F    A7
and it's stealing the life from me

F
time spent and time undone
Dm
I'm glad that you came here everyone
        A7
but the curtain call was more than an hour ago
   Bb                 A7
so goodbye ladies and gentlemen
F
it's under your pillow you know
Dm
over the mountains and down through the snow
       A7
you'll pray for change and rearrange
      Bb                       A7
but beneath your head lies your sacrament

(instrumental)
Dm  F  C  A7

  Dm                      F
I rush to hide my face in every large crowd
          C
cause the thought of them seeing me in such doubt
             A7
could put me under and out
        Dm
so walk on walk on
       F
I will do until out of sight
          C
until the casket door creaks and turns
                       A7
and folds me in and it closes on me tight

           Bb
there's an anger inside me
C             A7
begging to be released
         Dm           C         F    A7
and it's stealing the life from me

F
time spent and time undone
Dm
I'm glad that you came here everyone
        A7
but the curtain call was more than an hour ago
   Bb                 A7
so goodbye ladies and gentlemen
F
it's under your pillow you know
Dm
over the mountains and down through the snow
       A7
you'll pray for change and rearrange
      Bb                       A7
but beneath your head lies your sacrament

         Dm
It's the end of an era
  F
I guess we weren't as strong as we thought
C
all the shops are closing
       A7
at the end of our block
