Dream Theater — Scene Eight: The Spirit Carries On

[Куплет]:
/*Nicholas:*/  D
Where did we come from,
  D
Why are we here?
  G                       D
Where do we go when we die?
  Bm
What lies beyond
      Bm/A
And what lay before,
   E                       A
Is anything certain in life?
            D
They say, "Life is too short
     D
The here and the now"
      G                      D
And "You're only given one shot"
     Bm
But could there be more
     Bm/A
Have I lived before
    E                            Asus4 A
Or could this be all that we've got?

[Припев]:
G              A
If I die tomorrow
            D       D/C#      Bm
I'd be all right because I believe
                  G
That after we're gone
      Em           D A/D
The spirit carries on

  D
I used to be frightened of dying
  G                              D
I used to think death was the end
D/C#     Bm
   But that was before
          Bm/A
I'm not scared anymore
    E                          A
I know that my soul will transcend
   D
I may never find all the answers
   G                     D D/C#
I may never understand why
   Bm
I may never prove
         Bm/A
What I know to be true
        E                          Asus4 A
But I know that I still have to try

[Припев]:
G              A
If I die tomorrow
            D       D/C#      Bm
I'd be all right because I believe
                  G
That after we're gone
      A            D D7
The spirit carries on

[Бридж]:
/*Victoria:*/ Em
Move on, be brave
       Eb
Don't weep at my grave
   D                    E
Because I am no longer here
      G                    Em
But please never let your memory of me disappear

/*Nicholas:*/ D
Safe in the light that surrounds me
  G                       D  D/C#
Free of the fear and the pain
    Bm                   Bm/A
My questioning mind has helped me to find
     E                   A
The meaning in my life again
    D
Victoria's real, I finally feel
    G                          D   D/C#
At peace with the girl in my dreams
     Bm                     Bm/A
And now that I'm here It's perfectly clear
   E                           Asus4 A
I found out what all of this means

[Припев]:
G           Asus4
If I die tomorrow
A           D       D/C#      Bm
I'd be all right because I believe
     A            G
That after we're gone
      Em           D
The spirit carries on
