Intro: Bm / Bm / Bm / Bm
Bm Bm
Things change fast but this too shall pass
D G
Better carve it on your forehead or tattoo it on your ass
Bm Bm
Cause who can tell when the clock strikes twelve
D G
If today's become tomorrow or if it's all just gone to hell
Bm Bm
My friend makes rings she swirls and sings
D G
She's a mystic in the sense that she's still mystified by things
Bm Bm
But scared to ask how can nothing last
D G
Cause like a cancer in your body it all just goes too fast.
Bm / Bm / Bm / Bm
Bm Bm
We think too big we think our self is one whole thing
D G
And we claim that this collection has a name and is a being
Bm Bm
But deep inside when every cell divides
D G
It sets upon the rule that states self-interest is divine
Bm Bm
Cancer too lives by this golden rule
D G
That you must do unto the others as the others unto you
Bm Bm
All for the best cause that's all the life accepts
D G
And so we kill it like a buffalo with awe and with respect.
Bm / Bm / Bm / Bm
Bm Bm
Don't ask God just holler at the sky
D G
She'll tell it to you plainly in the clouds that whisper by
Bm Bm
And praise the shapes and then praise the way they change
D G
And they'll teach you not to pray to light without you pray to rain
Bm Bm
So I pray to hands and I pray to needs
D G
And I pray to blades of grass to find forgiveness in the weeds
Bm Bm
But as for health I just never did believe
D G
And so I never prayed myself except to those that prayed for me.
Bm / Bm / Bm / Bm
Bm Bm
The story goes or the way that I was told
D G
There was a king that always felt too high and then he fell too low
Bm Bm
And so he called all the wise men to the hall
D G
And begged them for a gift to end the rises and the falls
Bm Bm
And here's the thing they came back with a ring
D G
It was simple and was plainly unbefitting of a king
Bm Bm
Engraved in black it had no front or back
D G
But there were words around the band that said just know: This Too Shall Pass
Outro: Bm
shouldn't have any problems. Enjoy.
