This song is amazing. Been playing it quite a bit.
The song has been tabbed by me BY EAR. This is no book and no machine,
just me!
The pattern's pretty accurate I think. PLEASE leave feedback, Ill use
every correction I get!
Josh might play this with bar-chords but I dont. So get over it.
Anyways, enjoy and go buy the album!

DLive or Cdie before I Amget it Emdone will you deGcide'
DTake my Cwords and turn them Aminto Emsigns they will surGvive
because a Dlong Ctime ago AmI Emknew not to deGprive
It's Dsafe out Cthere now your AmeveryEmwhere just like the Gsky
And Dyou I Clove you, you are the Amlucid Emdream you are the Gride
And when you Dhear Cthis you know it's Amyour Emjam it's your goodGbye
GLike I said you know I'm Cmaj7almost dead, you know I'm Emalmost gone
and when the Gdrummer drums it's gonna Cmaj7play my song to carry Emme along
GLike I said you know I'm Cmaj7almost dead, you know I'm Emalmost gone
and when the Gboatman comes to ferry Cmaj7me away to where we Emall belong
DWe all Ccross when we were Amfeeling Emlost it's just the Gtime
Could Dterry Ccry the day her Amlover Emdied she recogGnized
Because you Dgave Cher a life of Amreal Emlove it's no surGprise
The Dnights are Clong but the Amyears are Emshort when your aGlive
DWay back Cwhen we'll never Ambe aEmgain it was a Gtime,
It's gonna Dget Cyou; so glad I Ammet Emyou to walk the Gline
GLike I said you know I'm Cmaj7almost dead, you know I'm Emalmost gone
and when the Gdrummer drums it's gonna Cmaj7play my song to carry Emme along
GLike I said you know I'm Cmaj7almost dead, you know I'm Emalmost gone
and when the Gboatman comes to ferry Cmaj7me away to where we Emall belong
Fill on Em (please feel free to post something for that in the comments!)
