Nothing To Repent

Em
As the night descends upon this world for which I've fought
    C                                D
The shadows of my life grow tall and haunt my waking thoughts
Em
In a world engulfed by darkness, did I bring the day?
    C                            D                    Em
And did I ever let that darkness take my soul away?
             C                            Em
For they did give me hell but I did not relent
           C                D            Em
And I will meet my end with nothing to repent

[Chorus]
        C               D
When we sail across the way
                       Em
And the reaper has his day
     C               D       Em
Only footprints will remain
          C               D
Make your mark on earth before
                       Em
You surpass that final door
           C           D
And you'll live forevermore

[Verse 2]
Em
When the night descends upon you, be wary that you're worth
   C                               D
Is equal to the good that you have done upon this each
Em
Answer not to gods above or sermons from the blind
C                     D                    Em
Only to the universal good of all mankind
              C                                Em
For they will give you hell but you must not relent
             C                               Em
And you will meet your end with nothing to repent

[Chorus]
        C               D
When we sail across the way
                       Em
And the reaper has his day
     C               D       Em
Only footprints will remain
          C               D
Make your mark on earth before
                       Em
You surpass that final door
           C           D     G
And you'll live forevermore

[Bridge]
            D         Em              B7   C
And as your final sun     sets in the sky
           G                D     G
All of the old clichés will apply
              D         Em                   B7         C
The day comes to us all     when we hear the final call
           D                 G
So hear my words before your curtain falls
                  D       Em              B7
No matter who you are, no matter what you do
C                  G               D
We're all wormfood in the end it's true
   G                   D           Em           B7
So make your stand and fight, find something to defend
C                  D               G
Trust me, it's all worth it in the end

G D Em B7 C G D
G D Em B7 C D G

Em
In the end it's up to you

To be proud of what you do
       C
And no matter what your purpose is in life
     D
Make sure you see it through

[Chorus]
        C               D
When we sail across the way
                       Em
And the reaper has his day
     C               D       Em
Only footprints will remain
          C               D
Make your mark on earth before
                       Em
You surpass that final door
           C           D
And you'll live forevermore

[Outro]
Em
No
             D
Will we ever learn
                  C
That there's no return?

Oh no
Em
So
                   D
Do not give up the fight
             C
And do not relent
           D                               Em
And you'll meet your end with nothing to repent
