Lirik + cord lagu "The Spirit Carries On"

D D/F#

Where did we come from? Why are we here?

G D D/C#

Where do we go when we die?

Bm Bm/A

What lies beyond? What lay before?

E/G# A4 A

Is anything certain in life?

A:

D D/F#

They say life is too short the here and the now,

G D D/C#

and you’re only given one shot.

Bm Bm/A

But could there be more? Have I lived before?

E/G# A4 A

Or could this be all that we’ve got?

B:

Chorus:

G A D D/C# Bm

If I die tomorrow, I’d be all right because I believe

G Em D

that after we’re gone, the spirit carries on

(interlude)

D D9 D4 Em .

D D9 D4 A4 (drums)

A:

D D/F#

I used to be frightened of dying.

G D D/C#

I used to think death was the end.

Bm Bm/A

But that was before, I’m not scared anymore.

E/G# A4 A

I know that my soul will transcend.

A:

D D/F#

I may never find all the answers,

G D D/C#

I may never understand why.

Bm Bm/A

I may never prove what I know to be true,

E/G# A4 A

but I know that I still have to try.

B:

CHORUS:

G A D D/C# Bm

If I died tomorrow I’d be all right because I believe

G Em D D7

that after we’re gone, the spirit carries on

C:

Em D#

Move on, be brave! Don’t weep at my grave!

D E

because I’m no longer here.

G Em Bm

But please never let your memory of me disappear.

Guitar Solo

(Kord Sama)

A:

D D/F#

Safe in the light that surrounds me.

G D D/C#

Free of the fear and the pain.

Bm Bm/A

The question in mind has helped me to find

E/G# A4 A

the meaning in my life again.

A:

D D/F#

Victoria’s real! I finally feel

G D D/C#

at peace with the girl in my dreams.

Bm Bm/A

And now that I’m here, it’s perfectly clear

E/G# A4 A

I’ll find out what all of this means.

B:

Chorus:

G A D D/C# Bm

If I died tomorrow I’d be all right because I believe
