So how long?
Could be today or Today?
I'd like to run some more tests.
We must remove all doubt before we can proceed.
It's the only way.
Sign here.
My eyes
can't [A] believe what they have seen.
In the corner of your room,
you've stockpiled millions of my [G] memories.
[A]
Oh, Doctor, Doctor,
[C] I must [A] have gotten this sick somehow.
[Dm] I'm going [A] to ask you a series of questions,

Well, [D] son,

death is gonna catch up [C] to all [D] one day,
[A] but yours is coming quicker [C] than ours, [D] than ours.

[Am]
Hold your [C] head high, heavy [F]
heart.
So [G] take a chance and make it big,
cause [A] it's the last you'll ever [C] get.
If we don't take it, when will we make [G] it?
I'll make plans, [A] so quick plans,
and I'll [C] think planets,
okay, big planets, okay, big planets.

[D] one thing's [A] for sure?
[F] Thinking back to [C] the glory [D] days
[A] when we [F] were kids without [C] no pressure,
fear [Dm] to be [G] insane.
We are the ones who walk on the path of truth.
[Am] Hold your [C] head high, heavy [F] heart.
Hold the warning [F] now.
