The Lesson Cifras

[Verse 1]
  E                        A     E
"It's best to not breathe in at all,"
       F#m7
Your teachers say
        B7                             E
"The toxins in the air will take your life away"
      E              E7
But don't believe a word from them
       F#m
You'll be okay
       B7   B7+5         E   D7
For I will breathe with you
 
 
[Verse 2]
      E               A        E        F#m7
You can't afford to show your face and smile back
      B7                              E
The spark of a new love can cause a heart attack
     E               E7
So leave me here to smile
          F#m
Until my teeth turn black
    B7       B7+5       E   E7
And I won't grieve for you
 
 
[Chorus]
              A     E7
And in the coming years
             A   E7
We all will disappear
           F#7                       Bm
Into the clouds that the rain falls from
           D       E7
And if we make believe
             A         D7
Our bodies create the seas
      E/D             E7 A F# Bm E7 A F# Bm E Emaj7 E7
We'll feel less worrisome
 
 
[Verse 3]
    E                A       E       F#m
I can't pretend to know why some die by the sword
      B7
Was taught when I was young
             E
One day I'd meet the Lord
      E              E7
But sitting here in class
                F#m
That talk just makes me bored
       B7    B7+5        E   B7
While others nod their heads
 
 
[Verse 4]
       E                 A     E       F#m
I've always felt this distance I could not explain
       B7                                E
I've chalked it up as something wrong inside my brain
     E               E7
But maybe we're all lost
              F#m
Since we all bleed the same
   B7            E7
Remember what I said
 
 
[Chorus]
 
              A     E7
And in the coming years
             A   E7
We all will disappear
           F#7                       Bm
Into the clouds that the rain falls from
           D       E7
And if we make believe
             A         D7
Our bodies create the seas
      E/D             E7
We'll feel less worrisome
A F3 Bm E7  A F# Bm E Emaj7 E7  A Ebdim7 A
