Ballad Of The Dying Man Tab por Father John Misty

F             Dm        Eb             Gm
Naturally the dying man wonders to himself
F              Dm              Eb             Gm
Has commentary been more lucid than anybody else?
    Am                                  F
And had he successively beaten back the rising tide
   Dm      Db
Of idiots, dilettantes, and fools
                   Gm
On his watch while he was alive
F                        Db    Dm
Lord, just a little more time

    F
Oh, in no time at all
               Bb  F   Gm
This'll be the distant past
G   Gm
Ooh

F           Dm        Eb              Gm
So says the dying man once I'm in the box
F                     Dm        Eb            Gm
Just think of all the overrated hacks running amok
               Am                                     F
And all of the pretentious, ignorant voices that will go unchecked
    Dm          
The homophobes, hipsters, and 1%
    Db                        Gm
The false feminists he'd managed to detect
F                                    Db    Dm
Oh, who will critique them once he's left?

    F
Oh, in no time at all
               Bb  F   Gm
This'll be the distant past
G   Gm
Ooh

Ab                 C               F        Bb
What he'd give for one more day to rate and analyze
    Gm                C           F
The world made in his image as of yet
   Bb             Dm      Gm    C
To realize what a mess to leave behind

F              Dm        Eb              Gm
Eventually the dying man takes his final breath
F                    Dm               Eb                 Gm
But first checks his news feed to see what he's 'bout to miss
       Am                          F
And it occurs to him a little late in the game
            Dm
We leave as clueless as we came
A                             Gm 
For the rented heavens to the shadows in the cave
F            Ab       Dm
We'll all be wrong someday
Bb  Dm  Gm
Oh

Bb Dm Am Gm  Bb Dm Gm
