[Intro] Em
 
[Primeira Parte]

Em               Am
We don't hope for makin' things better
D                Em
All we want is to keep it together
Em                        Am
Every day is a rainy day, no changin' the weather
D                               Em
This kind of life has made our hearts as hard as leather
 
[Refrão]

D                               Em
And all these tears are from the dust in our eyes
D                               Em
And all these years just keep on passin' us by
D                             Em
And all this misery makes it hard to deny
C                            Em
We all know that we're just born to die
C                                        Em                D
That's the way it goes when you're just born to die
 
[Segunda Parte]

Em                   Am
I hear the voice of a whip-poor-will singin'
D                       Em
She don't know all the comfort she's bringin'
Em                      Am
We all know the sound of when the truth is ringin'
D                                     Em
Yeah, it hurts your soul just like a bumblebee stingin' 
 
[Refrão]

D                               Em
And all these tears are from the dust in our eyes
D                               Em
And all these years just keep on passin' us by
D                             Em
And all this misery makes it hard to deny
C                            Em
We all know that we're just born to die
C                                        Em                (D)
That's the way it goes when you're just born to die
 
( Em  Am  D  Em )

D                               Em
And all these tears are from the dust in our eyes
D                               Em
And all these years just keep on passin' us by
D                             Em
And all this misery makes it hard to deny
C                            Em
We all know that we're just born to die
C                                   Em
'Cause we all know that we're just born to die
C                  Am                               Em
That's the way it goes when you're just born to die
