--CAPO 2

F                  Am          G 
I'm a vapour, here today, gone tomorrow 
      Am                               G 
Don't want to live my life here with a heart full of sorrow 
F                  Am          G 
I'm a vapour, here today, gone tomorrow 
      Am                               G 
Don't want to live my life here with a heart full of sorrow 


F                 Am 
Life is short was said 
     G              F 
By a man who is now dead 
      Am 
Those things you wish you said 
                          G 
You can't say them to the dead 
                          F 
You can't say them to the dead 
F                            Am 
Some people die when they're 40 
                G                     F 
But they're not buried 'till they're 75 
Am 
Just because your heart is beating 
        G                F 
Doesn't mean that you're alive 

(I'm a vapour) 

Through all his years of life 
He thought that he might 
Look to the one above 
Who he'd seen work through the ones he loved 
But after all was said 
The idea stayed in his head 
He did not follow through 
And all he left was an empty bed 

(I'm a vapour) 

F       Am              G 
Oh, the saddest thing I ever saw 
      F        Am      G 
Was a man that did not know 
      F      Am          G 
Which way to turn, which way to go 
         F        Am     G 
Finished his life on his own
