<< Back to Will Wood Song List
Version 1
            [Verse 1]
F                             A
One day you'll look up at the ceiling above
Dm                                          G7
If you're lucky you'll be surrounded by the ones that you love
         Bb                           F                D
When the lights in your eyes fade and life flashes by
Bb             C        F
One day you're going to die

F                               A
One day you’ll sleep and you'll never wake again
Dm                              G7
Heaven, hell, nirvana, nothing, no one knows how it ends
Bb                                F         D
Rest in peace or pieces and won't even know why
Bb             C        F   F7
One day you're going to die

[Verse 2]
Gm            F7            Gm              F7
Read your horoscopes, your palms and tarot cards
Bb               Bbm          Gm         F
Either way your destination ain't very far
Gm                  F7                  Gm          F7
You could drown, or choke, or burn, or be hit by a car
             Gm                               Am
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, but something will eventually

[Verse 3]
F                               A
One day you'll look back at the life that you lead
        Dm                                       G7
No more future left to fear that you'll have the past to regret
         Bb                          F        D
But your worries will be over if you truly realize
Bb             C        F
One day you’re going to die
N.C.
Take it away hands

[Interlude]
F  A  Dm  G7
Bb  F  D
Bb  C  F

[Verse 4]
       Gm        F7                Gm          F7
In the fabric of time, and in the vastness of space
  Bb
A billion amounts to nothing in infinity’s face
          Gm          F             Gm         F
At most a couple generations will remember the ways
              G             G7             D              D7
In which your life never mattered, so who cares if it's a waste?

[Verse 5]
      G                            B
Well, one day you’ll be not even a faint memory
       Em                                  A
No, at most a ghost of falling leaves from your family tree
     C           D                 G       E7
The legacy's not yours to see, nor is your eulogy
C            D7              G          E7
And you'll never know what it all means


[Outro]
                 C                D                 G            E7
But you'll be at peace before you sleep if you just keep this in mind
          C              D                 G          E7
That everything and everyone goes with the passage of time
                C       D       G       E7
So whether it’s cancer, murder, or suicide
C              D        G
One day you're going to die
           E7
No need to fear cause when it's
C              D      G
Here you won't be alive
           E7
Try not to think about it
C              D        G
One day you're going to die
                     E7
And there's probably nothing after
C              D        G
One day you're going to die
          E7             C                   D                G           E7
So if you only have one chance you ought to try your best to live as you like
C              D        G
One day you're going to die

[Outro]
