[Verse]
         C     G         Am
You were gone    when we found you
         Dm          C                    G
You were practically surrounded, you were trapped
        C          G              Am          F
But the opposition stalled, their blood ran cold
C                 G                    C
When they saw the look of love in your eyes

[Chorus]
          C                  G
Maybe the times we had, they weren't that bad
    Am
And everything else was part of the plan
   Dm       C          G
We sang: "I don't know where we go from here"
            C      G      Am                F
This is the alpha, omega, beginning and the end
       C        G           C
And we all just idolize the dead

[Verse]
            C                 G                     Am
So you were born (So you were born), and that was a good day
               Dm                  C                   G
Someday you'll die (Someday you'll die), and that is a shame
    C                G             Am                   F
But somewhere in the between was a life of which we all dream
    C                       G              C
And nothing and no one will ever take that away
          C      G          Am
You had a love     and that love had you
Dm             C                  G
   And nothing mattered, you were fine
    C         G                      Am             F
And some will complain, they're just bitter, what a shame
               C                    G                      C
They know that loving and losing is better than nothing at all

[Chorus]
          C                  G
Maybe the times we had, they weren't that bad
    Am
And everything else was part of our path
   Dm       C          G
We sang: "I don't know where we go from here"
            C      G      Am                F
This is the alpha, omega, beginning and the end
       C        G           C
And we all just idolize the dead

[Verse]
            C                 G                     Am
So you were born (So you were born), and that was a good day
               Dm                  C                   G
Someday you'll die (Someday you'll die), and that is a shame
    C                G             Am                   F
But somewhere in the between was a life of which we all dream
    C                       G              C
And nothing and no one will ever take that away
          C                       G
Yeah, the times we had, they were not that bad
    Am
And everything else, that was part of the plan
       Dm       C          G
And we sang, "I don't know where we go from here"
            C               G               Am                F
This is the Alpha (Alpha!), Omega (Omega!), beginning and the end!
       C        G           C
And we all just idolize the dead
            C                 G                     Am
So you were born (So you were born), and that was a good day
               Dm                  C                   G
Someday you'll die (Someday you'll die), and that is a shame
    C                G             Am                   F
But somewhere in the between was a life of which we all dream
    C                       G              C
And nothing and no one will ever take that away
And someday soon my friends, this ride will come to an end
But we can't just get in line again.
