Beyond The Realms Of Death

[Intro]
Bm A G Em F#
Bm A G
Em F#

[Verse 1]
Bm           A
  He had enough,
G                      Em F#
 he couldn't take anymore
Bm              A         G                    Em  F#
  He found a place in his mind and slammed the door
Bm          A
  No matter how they tried,
     G             Em   F#
they couldn't understand
Bm                    A
  They washed and dressed him,
G          F#
fed him by hand

[Chorus]
Bm
  Yeah, I've left the world behind
I am safe here in my mind
I'm free to speak with my own kind
This is my life, this is my life,
                   F#
I'll decide not you

[Verse 2]
Bm               A
  Withdrawn he'd sit there,
G                Em   F#
stare blank into space
Bm             A        G              Em  F#
  No sign of life would flicker on his face
Bm                 A
  Until one day he smiled,
   G                     Em   F#
it seemed as though with pride
Bm         A
  The wind kissed him,
    G               F#
goodbye and then he died

[Chorus]
Bm
  Yeah, I've left the world behind
I am safe here in my mind
I'm free to speak with my own kind
This is my life, this is my life,
I'll decide not you

[Post-Chorus]
F#m
   Keep the world with all its sin
Em
It's not fit for living in
Bm
  Yeah! I will start again
It can take forever and ever and ever and ever
But I shall win

[Interlude]
Bm A G Em F#

[Verse 3]
Bm         A       G       Em       F#
  How many like him are there still?
Bm
  But to us,
 A  G                     Em  F#
all seem to have lost the will
Bm                A
  They lie in thousands,
G            Em  F#
 plagued and lost
Bm             A        G      F#
  Is nothing worth this bitter cost?

[Chorus]
Bm
  Yeah, I've left the world behind
I am safe here in my mind
I'm free to speak with my own kind
This is my life, this is my life,
I'll decide not you

[Post-Chorus]
F#m
   Keep the world with all its sin
 Em                       Bm
It's not fit for living in

[Outro]
Bm                        F#
  Beyond the realms of death.
