F#m D A(x2)
verse 1
F#m D A
I've been considering oblivion tonight
F#m D
I'll squeeze the last few drops of the bruised dark fruit
A E
And pretend that I just might
F#m D A E
Might get the Viking funeral, might OD on the lawn
F#m D A
Might end up immortal like an old soul song
F#m D A
You know it's bearing down, it's bearing down
F#m D A
Hunter Thomson was right, it's bearing down
F#m D A
It's bearing down, it's bearing down
F#m D A
Robin Williams was right, it's bearing down
verse 2
F#m D A
It always seemed kinda comical just to go
F#m D
When the crumbs of youthful pleasures go stale
A E
And give way to the undertow
F#m D
Thought the Golden Gate would be beautiful
A E
Hate the height, but it's a helluva view
F#m D A
Swan dive, leave it all behind, but now there's you
F#m D A
And it's bearing down, it's bearing down
F#m D A
I can't leave you here alone, it's bearing down
F#m D A
It's bearing down, it's bearing down
F#m D A
I can't leave you here alone with it bearing down
verse 3
F#m D A
I see you shining in the sun again and I know
F#m D A E
For the first time in forever I'm certain I can't go
F#m D
You're the one I want to wither with
A E
I want to see you when you're old
F#m D
And be the one to keep you warm
A
When the world turns cold
F#m D A
It's bearing down, it's bearing down
F#m D A
Hallelujah, we're alive, it's bearing down
F#m D A
I know it's bearing down, it's bearing down
F#m D A
Hallelujah, we're alive, it's bearing down
