Eulogy

Intro: C F C F 


[Verso 1]
 
C                                   F 
In my rearview mirror dreams, I see myself staring back as a kid 
                 C                                          F 
Asking whether I believe in all those songs the same way I did 
           C                         C/E 
He says, "Now you've got a wife and kids 
         F 
In the scars that life alone can give 
               C                                     F 
Do you still honestly believe that we were meant to live?" 
 


[Pré-Refrão]
 
               Dm                                   G 
It's what the race car drivers say when they press on the gas 
               Em                                    F 
It's not the driving fast that kills you, it's the stopping fast 
             Dm                              G 
So let this fire only burn with what could never last 
 


[Refrão]
 
                      Am F C   G 
Every day I write the eulogy 
                 Am F   C   G 
For everything I used to be 
                        Am F  C   G 
I'm still aiming for a better me 
           Am                   F 
I am the mosaic of a shattered man 
             C                    G            C 
Broken and becoming, broken and becoming who I am

[Verso 2]
 
         Am           F               C 
I'm a patchwork tapestry of these defeats 
          G               Am F C  G 
Finally admitting I was wrong 
          Am               F                C 
All the shattered, ruined dreams that I release 
                G                   Am F C  G 
Broken parts of me I thought were strong 
     Am                    F         C                  G       Am F C  G 
The world I thought was always and forever, and would never go away 
 


[Pré-Refrão]
 
           Dm                           G 
Scattered ashes of my past finds that mosaic glue 
      Em                                 F 
Only that which has been broken once is fit to use 
             Dm                               G 
You're where all my broken parts are finally restitute 
 


[Refrão]
 
                      Am F C   G 
Every day I write the eulogy 
                 Am F   C   G 
For everything I used to be 
                        Am F  C   G 
I'm still aiming for a better me 
           Am                   F 
I am the mosaic of a shattered man 
             C                    G            C 
Broken and becoming, broken and becoming who I am 
 


[Ponte]
 
       F 
Who I am 
      C                   G   F 
The mosaic of a shattered man 
       Em 
In my rear view mirror dreams 
       F 
In my rear view mirror dreams 
       C 
I'm forever being born 
              F 
As even the grave gives birth to green
