[Verse 1]
Abm           E               F#
 So this is it, this is my life
              E
This is my time, it's ending tonight
Abm                 E                      F#
 I made my mistakes, I tried to live right
                    E
Stepped out of the darkness into the light
Abm              E                 F#
 And when I'm gone, will they remember?
           E
Will they mourn? Will they move on?
Abm           E                  F#
 When my sad songs for lonely son
              E                     Abm
His time has come, his life is done
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
       G7           F#           E    Abm
And tonight, we'll celebrate the end
         G7              F#    E
Of this life, and we'll sing, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
 
 
[Chorus]
Abm   B     E   F#      Abm
 Whoa oh oh oh, it's alright
  B        E          F#      Abm
This is a night like we've began
       B    E       F#          Abm
With o--pen arms, this is the way
     B        E
The way I'll meet my maker tonight

[Verse 2]
Abm            E                 F#
 And on my grave, what will it say?
             E                    Abm
"Here lies another soul that was saved..."
                   E                   F#
So, please don't cry, just sleep at night
            E                     Abm
And I will wait on the other side
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
       G7           F#           E    Abm
And tonight, we'll celebrate the end
         G7              F#    E
Of this life, and we'll sing, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
 
 
[Chorus]
Abm   B     E   F#      Abm
 Whoa oh oh oh, it's alright
  B        E          F#      Abm
This is a night like we've began
       B    E       F#          Abm
With o--pen arms, this is the way
     B        E       F#
The way I'll meet my maker tonight
