G               Em              G                 D
Back when I was young enough to know from where I came,
Em              C              Em      D       G
I saw my love be spat upon and shouted down in shame.

G                       Em                  G                 D
Well I hung my head and shed a tear, when I went to change my name,
Em                    C                           Em     D        G
But his honor told me don't 'cha fear, because it always ends the same.

G                  Em             G               D
It always ends the same, he said, always ends the same.
   Em                  C                      Em     D       G
Ah, remember dear this too shall pass, and it always ends the same.

G                  Em                 G            D
Well I was feeling so alone, when the congregation sang,
Em                  C                Em         D       G
Of Jesus Christ and Lucifer, and the price that I would pay.
G                        Em                    G                  D
But the preacher told me not to fear, for they know not what they say,
Em                  C                    Em     D        G
Yeah the history is on your side, and it always ends the same.

G                  Em              G              D
It always ends the same, he said, always ends the same.
    Em                 C                      Em     D        G
Ah, remember dear this too shall pass, and it always ends the same.

        G             Em         G               D
Now the fishes on the TV fly, in circles all the same,
     Em              C            Em        D     G
Like little children terrified of what they can't explain.
    G                Em              G             D
But when the suburb and the sky, are both awash in flame,
       Em         C                     Em     D        G
Oh the television won't survive, and it always ends the same.

G                  Em              G               D
It always ends the same, you know, always ends the same.
    Em                 C                      Em     D        G
Oh, remember dear this too shall pass, and it always ends the same.

    G                Em            G                 D
And when I'm finally old enough to learn to play the game,
   Em                 C                   Em     D            G
Oh the dinosaurs will roam the earth, and resume their bloody reign.
    G                 Em                   G           D
But when I hear their victory song, I will hum the old refrain,
   Em             C                 Em      D       G
No life can live forever on, and it always ends the same.

   G               Em              G                D
It always ends the same, you know, always ends the same.
    Em                 C                      Em     D        G
Oh, remember dear this too shall pass, and it always ends the same.

   G               Em             G               D
It always ends the same, he said, always ends the same.
    Em                 C                      Em     D        G
Oh, remember dear this too shall pass, and it always ends the same.
