Db      Ebm   Fm     Bbm
If endings are beginnings
Eb                 Db     Ab
Maybe we should be leaving
   Db     Ebm        Fm    Bbm
If loving you's like dying
Eb                 Db     Ab
Maybe I could stop breathing
Abm7           Ab      Gb
We listen, but are we hearing?
Eb7  Db         Bbm   Ab7    Db
And endings are like beginnings

[Chorus]
        Db      Ebm      Fm     Bbm
If the start is just the finish
      Eb                  Db     Ab
Then maybe we should keep moving
     Db        Ebm   Fm         Bbm
What things did you accomplish?
Eb                  Db       Ab
Maybe we could stop counting
  Abm7           Abdim      Gb
I write to learn what I'm thinking
Eb7  Db         Bbm   Ab7    Db
And endings seem like beginnings

[Verse]
Gbdim              Ebdim
Though I dig my heals right in
Db
There ain't a soul not suffering
   Gbdim            Ebdim
You pass it on like a baton
Db
And run and run and run and run
Ebdim
Alas the heart, it cannot speak
Fm7                        Bbm
It holds its tongue between its teeth
Ebm
I travel across the great divide
Ab7
From neutral ground to your bedside

[Chorus]
    Db      Ebm    Fm     Bbm
If pain was just a tattoo
 Eb                 Db    Ab
Maybe it will stop hurting
     Db       Ebm    Fm      Bbm
I'll say I'll always love you
     Eb                      Db    Ab
And hold you all night till morning
  Abm7          Abdim     Gb    Bbm   Gdim
I pray that I'm not just dreaming
Eb7  Db         Bbm   Gb
And endings are, and endings are
Bbm  Gb         Gb9     Ab7   Db
And endings are like beginnings
