Intro: Db
 
Verse:
                Gbm              D      A   G          Gbm
You, look at me now, with those hollow eye sockets and smile
             D      A                G          Gbm
And it seems all a lie, what they’ve told me so far
Db                    Gbm        D    A      G            Gbm
And you, show me that life isn’t all about extending your time
             E       A         G          Gbm
No, it’s the perfect time for a bottle of wine
 

Db             Gbm        D       A     E      Gbm
Why do I still care about all who might recall me
    E          A             G   Gbm
For everything dies, so does memory
    Db                 Gbm             D     A          E     Gbm
And why, am I still surprised, about all who pray their sins away
       E          A            G        Gbm
Aren’t they too a part of this grand ballet
 
Chorus:
Gbm  Db      D          Db      D
When time occurs, don’t make it right
      Db      D           Db       D         Db      D
Don’t make me right, it’s me to decide: this or that side
     G       Gbm
This or that side
 
Verse:
Db                   Gbm         D         A                 G           Gbm
Death suits you dear sir, like a beautiful coat but then without all the fur
         E            A                  G          Gbm
I wonder would it fit me? What would you have me prefer
          Db                           Gbm                   D         A       E            Gbm
You know, some people would rather not exist, they put a gun to the heart or a knife to the wrist
       E                 A                      G           Gbm
We all think they aren't smart, but it could be something I missed
 

Db                     Gbm                D         A     E          Gbm
But then she kisses my skin, I don't know what this is or where to begin
              E       A                    G          Gbm
This fills me up with bliss, don't tell me this was a dream
        Db            Gbm        D    A      G             Gbm
And she shows me that life isn't all about explaining your time
             E       A        G       Gbm
No, it's the perfect time, to lay all night
 
Chorus:
Gbm  Db      D          Db      D
When time occurs, don’t make it right
      Db      D           Db       D         Db      D
Don’t make me right, it’s me to decide: this or that side
  Db        D           Db   D
I need your word, leave it aside
Gbm        Db      D              Db    D         Db      D
Just don’t make me right, it’s me to decide: this or that side
     Db      D
This or that side
     G       Gbm
This or that side
 
Outro:
Db             Gbm            D         A           G           Gbm
You look at me now, with that burning cigar hanging out of your mouth
             E     A                G          Gbm
And it seems all a lie what they've told me so far
