A:
   D                     D/F#
Where did we come from? Why are we here?
  G                      D               D/C#
Where do we go when we die?
   Bm              Bm/A
What lies beyond? What lay before?
      E/G#                  A4            A
Is anything certain in life?
A:
   D                     D/F#
They say life is too short the here and the now,
  G                      D               D/C#
and you`re only given one shot.
   Bm              Bm/A
But could there be more? Have I lived before?
      E/G#                  A4            A
Or could this be all that we`ve got?
B:
 Chorus:
   G         A                 D       D/C#        Bm
If I die tomorrow, I`d be all right because I believe
             G           Em                 D
that after we`re gone, the spirit carries on

 A:
   D                     D/F#
I used to be frightened of dying.
  G                      D               D/C#
I used to think death was the end.
   Bm              Bm/A
But that was before, I`m not scared anymore.
      E/G#                  A4            A
I know that my soul will transcend.
 A:
   D                     D/F#
I may never find all the answers,
  G                      D               D/C#
I may never understand why.
   Bm              Bm/A
I may never prove what I know to be true,
      E/G#                  A4            A
but I know that I still have to try.

CHORUS:
   G         A                 D       D/C#        Bm
 If I died tomorrow I`d be all right because I believe
                G          Em                 D           D7
that after we`re gone, the spirit carries on
C:
   Em                    D#
Move on, be brave! Don`t weep at my grave!
      D                E
because I`m no longer here.
         G           Em                      Bm
But please never let your memory of me disappear.

Safe in the light that surrounds me.

the meaning in my life again.
A:
   D                     D/F#
Victoria`s real! I finally feel
  G                      D               D/C#
at peace with the girl in my dreams.

And now that I`m here, it`s perfectly clear
      E/G#                  A4            A
I`ll find out what all of this means.
