dawes – god rest my soul
intro : G
G C G
take your last look around
G C D
take the fall that is due .
Em
and take your time ,
G
and i’ll take mine .
C ( D ) C G
it’s the last thing that’s left for us to do
you have tried to define romance ,
and all the things that it is not
your time became some old man’s cane
while he dances to a song that he forgot .
Em C G
oh , you can’t throw something out there without watching it fall
Em C G
only thing that’s scarier than dying is not dying at all .
D Em C
so when i have lost all my control
C D G
god will rest my soul .
i guess your mind can leave your heart .
i guess that’s what you’re doing now .
but it doesn’t make us friends
or better men
it is not something that love would allow .
oh you can’t throw something out there without watching it fall ,
only thing that’s scarier than dying is not dying at all .
so when i have lost all my control
god will rest my soul .
break
Dm7 Am7 C G
and just like how i’ll drink myself through my seventh relapse ,
Dm7 Am7 C G
like a captain of his sinking ship clutches to his maps .
Dm7 ( mute ) Am7 C G
what the figure on the cross thinks with his one final gasp –
D7 G
this too shall pass .
oh you can’t throw something out there without watching it fall ,
only thing that’s scarier than dying is not dying at all .
so when i have lost all my control
god will rest my soul .
