(Verse 1)
D                  
Where did we come from?
D/F#
Why are we here?
G                       D   D/C#
Where do we go when we die?
Bm
What lies beyond
Bm
And what lay before?
E           E7         Asus4  A
Is anything certain in life?



(Verse 2)
            D                
They say " Life is too short"
     D/F#
"The here and the now
        G                    D    D/C#
And " You`re only given one shot"
Bm
But could there be more
Bm
Have I lived before
    E           E7             Asus4  A
Or could tis be all that we`ve got?



(Chorus)
G             A
If I die tomorrow
           D    
I`d be allright
D/C#        Bm
Because I believe
                  G
That after we`re gone
      A    Asus4   D
The spirit carries on

   D                       D/F#          
I used to be frightened of dying
G                              D   D/C#
I used to think death was the end
Bm
But that was before
Bm
I`m not scared anymore
   E           E7          Asus4 A
I know that my soul will transcend



(Verse 4)
   D                       D/F#
I may never find all the answers
   G                    D  D/C#
I may never understand why
Bm
I may never prove
Bm
What I know to be true
E                  E7          Asus4  A
But I know that I still have to try



(Chorus)
G              A
If I die tomorrow
          D    
I`d be allright
D/C#       Bm
Because I believe
                  G
That after we`re gone
     A     Asus4   D       
The spirit carries on



(Bridge)
  G                  
"Move on, be brave
      G            A
Don`t weep at my grave
  D                    E
Because I`m no longer here
g       
But please never let
       A              D
You memories of me disappear"

Safe in the light that surrounds me
G                         D   D/C#
Free of the fear and the pain
Bm
My questioning mind
Bm
Has help me to find
E                  E7   Asus4 A
The meaning in my life again



(Verse 6)
D              
Victoria`s real
   D/F#
I finally feel
    G                         D    D/C#                  
At peace with the girl in my dreams
Bm
And now that I`m here
Bm
It`s perfectly clear
    E             E7         Asus4 A
I found out what all of this means



(Chorus)
G           A
If I die tomorrow
           D   
I`d be allright

Because I believe
                  G
That after we`re gone
