B-D-C#-E 2X
Verse: (ska chords)*
E B
"How's your life?" "How are things?"
"great they're going okay!"
E B
Something stale and superficial, not to ruin your day.
E B
Something swell, something gay, with the toothiest smile,
E B
something sappy, something happy, something smells like
D B E B
bile. I don't want to burst your bubble, not to rain on your
D B E
parade, underneath my skin I'm tired, limping down the
B
path I've made.
Prechorus:(octaves)
B C# D E
The clap of thunder in my veins,
B C# D E
breaks on barren manifold,
B C# D E
still and small and so mundane,
B E
the greatest story ever ...
chorus:
E E B
told The greatest story ever
Intro
Verse:(ska)
E B E B
Are you crawling through dismal? Gray of nothing, frostbite
D B E
kills. Does this world make light of weaving, shrouds to
B D B E
bury , graves to fill? I am just a kindred spirit, a runner
B
who is running still.
Prechorus:(Octaves-Power chords)
B C# D E
Welcome to the longest mile,
B C# D E
the most costly thing you'll ever hold
B C# D E
wonderful is the journey,
B E
the greatest story ever...
Chorus
Bridge:(palm mute powercords progressively getting louder)
E B E B
All my dreams are slowly dying.
E B E B
I can count my years in scars.
E B E B
The only one that's never left me,
E B E B
has carried me so very far.
E B E B
I've heard it said that He wastes nothiing,
E B E B
so beautiful to behold,
E B E B
the Author of my hope is writing,
E B E
the greatest story ever...
Chorus
