There is a man that I know,
Fm/Ab Gm7 Fm
for seventeen years, he never spoke.
Db Fm
Guess he had nothing to say,
Fm/Ab Gm7 Gm7b5 Fm
he opened his mouth on Judgement Day.
Fm/Ab Gm7 Fm
I listened with all of my might,
Fm/Ab Gm7 Fm
but was scared by the look in his eyes.
Db Fm
Like he'd already lost the fight,
Fm/Ab Gm7 Gm7b5 Fm
and there was no hope ever in sight.
Db
No hope in the air,
Fm
no hope in the water,
Gm7
not even for me,
Gm7b5 Fm
your last serving daughter.

Why fear death, be scared of living,
Bbm Fm/Ab
our hearts are small and ever thinning.
Bbm Fm/Ab
There is no hope ever of winning,
Ab Gm7 Gm7b5 Fm
oh, why fear death, be scared of living.
Fm/Ab Gm7 Fm
I have seen men provoked,
Fm/Ab Gm7 Fm
and I have seen lives revoked,
Db Fm
and I looked at my life and choked.
Fm/Ab Gm7 Gm7b5 Fm
From there no more ever I spoke.
Fm/Ab Gm7 Fm
I can't give up that quick.
Fm/Ab Gm7 Fm
My life is a candle and a wick.

in the end we are waiting to be lit.

your last serving daughter.
Eb/G Fm
A friend is a friend forever,
Db Fm
and a good one will never leave, never.
Fm/Ab Gm7 Gm7b5 Fm
But you've have never been south of what grows off your mouth,
Fm/Ab Bbm7 Fm
you will never understand, ever.
Fm/Ab Gm7 Fm
You speak minds handed down to you,
Fm/Ab Gm7 Fm
by the lies handed down by your truth,
Db Fm
and your angels will dance at your will,
Fm/Ab Gm7 Fm
will mask your scrambling youth.
Fm/Ab Gm7 Fm
I forgave you your short comings,
Fm/Ab Gm7 Fm
and ignored your childish behaviour.

Laid a kiss on your head,and before I left said "stay away from fleeting failure".

your last serving daughter.
