1st Verse:

A           E               B        D I found the Holy Bible on a bench outside the courthouse
A        E                B               D and I am scared because I do not think of God, no
    A             EThe thoughts that cross my mind
    B             D are neither holy, nor divine,
     A            E                B            D   A       E B just simple human longings for the boy who does not believe
   D                A  E B D he once believed in me

A           E                   B              D So I walked on and stuffed that heavy new book under my arm
A                 E          B        D and then I got in my car and drove on home
A            E            I thought of words he said
      B                            D 'bout where we're going once we're dead
    A             Ebut other worries fill my head
     B             D        A     E B It's selfish and I know I'm wrong
         D                  A    E B Dbut I'll miss him when he's gone

Chorus:

DYeah I still fear the black
A but there's no looking back
E and if I'm dying, I'm just dying for you, dear
DCan't tell which way to go
A I doubt we'll ever know
E                                                    D (pause) Let's take advantage of the time that we've got here

'Cause time's all we've got here

Interlude:

A E B D

2nd Verse:

A         E                  B                     DI made it home, unlocked the door, and tossed that book onto the floor
A            E                B               Dwhere it sat waiting like I'm waiting for the truth, so
A             E            B                   DI put it in a box under my bed, with all those silly things I've kept
A          E              B                D        A  E Band I will leave it there unread, so I can get back to
         D                A E     B           Dfiguring out how I'll get through today and tomorrow

Chorus:

DYeah I still fear the black
A but there's no looking back
E and if I'm dying, I'm just dying for you, dear
DCan't tell which way to go
A I doubt we'll ever know
E                                                    D Let's take advantage of the time that we've got here

        ECall it quits, cut out early, this is surely your fault
D                        AWhen I fall back to you, I am through, I am through
DOh but I do, I do, I do
