[E]
I wrote this for a friend of mine.
We used to sit around and talk about the meaning of life and so on.
He was going through hard times and some friends went to go check [B] up on him.
[E] [N] And they started banging on his door and he didn't answer and they kept banging and he kept [E] not answering.
[N] It's kind of a song for that moment called The Grand Design.

[E]
All I ask of you is your better years.
All I know how to do [B] is wisdom.
[E] We'll philosophize on the grand design.
And mourn all [D#m] of [E] creation.
And rejoice cause we're sorry and we tried.
[C#] I'll [E] rejoice if you're more [B] than just alive.
[E] Now let the gods that give the world its sins.
Let them lay their [F#] lights [B] down low [E] for you now.
I know they [F#] said [E] we'd meet in eternity.
Still I wait for [F#] you below.
[E]
Coming home you should know I ain't the same.
[C#m] Coming home [F#] [B]
forever [E] changed.
[B] [E]
Cause there is evil enough in a half full cup.
To tempt [A] [F#] me towards the [D#m] deep [E] dark find.
When I believe in love and the things thereof.
I know I feel [A#] you [B] shy.
[E]
I don't know but I heard that there is more.
I'm uneasy [F#] knocking on [B] the door.
[E]
Cause all I [F#] ask [E] of you is your better years.
All I know how to do [D#m]
is [B] wisdom.
[E] Now I laugh and cry at the grand design.
And mourn all [F#] of [B] creation.
[E] Now [B]
I [E] laugh and cry at the grand design.
And mourn all [F#] [B] of [E] creation.
