How long did we all 
D 
Think this all would last?

As they flew past?

              G 
But before we go 
D                             F#m 
Sing us a song, sing us a song 
               Bm                G 
To hum through the hours of dying

A pink and silver day 
D 
Who was to know?

Sing us a song, sing us a song 
               Bm                G 
To hum through the hours of dying

Sing us a song, sing us a song 
               Bm                G 
To hum through the hours of dying
