If I die before i get it done,
will you decide.
Take my words and turn them
into signs that will survive.
Because a long time ago,
I knew not to deprive.
It's safe out there and now you're everywhere,
just like the skies.
You are love you are the love supreme
You are the rise.
And when you hear this,
You'll know its your jam,
It's your goodbye.
Chorus:
Like I said
you know I'm almost dead,
you know I'm almost gone.
and when the drummer drums,
he's going to play my song,
to carry me along.
Like I said
you know I'm almost dead,
you know I'm almost gone.
and when the boatman comes
to ferry me away,
to where we all belong.
(Like the first Verse)
We all crossed, when we were feeling lost,
it's just the tide.
Katari cried, the day her lover died,
she recognized.
Because he gave her,
a life of real love,
it's no surprise.
The nights are long,
but the years are short,
when you're alive.
way back when, would never be again,
it was a time.
it's gonna catch you,
so glad i met you,
to walk a line.
Chorus:
Like I said
you know I'm almost dead,
you know I'm almost gone.
and when the drummer drums,
he's going to play my song,
to carry me along.
Like I said
you know I'm almost dead,
you know I'm almost gone.
and when the boatman comes
to ferry me away,
to where we all belong.
(Em for this part)
hey!...
Chorus:
Like I said
you know I'm almost dead,
you know I'm almost gone.
and when the drummer drums,
he's going to play my song,
to carry me along.
Like I said
you know I'm almost dead,
you know I'm almost gone.
and when the boatman comes
to ferry me away,
to where we all belong.
Let me live,
so when it's time to die,
even the reaper cries
Let me die.
So when it's time to live,
another son will rise.
I said yeah!
yeah! yeah! yeah! yeah!
I said yeah!
yeah! yeah! yeah! yeah!
Chorus:
Like I said
you know I'm almost dead,
you know I'm almost gone.
and when the drummer drums,
he's going to play my song,
to carry me along.
Like I said
you know I'm almost dead,
you know I'm almost gone.
and when the boatman comes
to ferry me away,
to where we all belong.
Like I said
you know I'm almost dead,
you know I'm almost gone. (3x)
I hope I could help you. The chords sound pretty goog to me and the lyrics are 100 % right;)
