From this second story window... Even angels...

 

verse 2 follows the same progression as verse one, and chorus two also follows

chorus one except for the last D minor chord. It goes into the bridge in F#.

Mr. Higginson...

Am I Destined...

 

Chorus 3 plays just like the two previous choruses, then it goes back to the

palm muted verse style, but it ends on the first F# chord.

If I die...

 

intro:

If I die tomorrow

would this song live on forever

And her is my

Unopened letter to a world

That never shall reply

 

verse 1:

If I die tomorrow

would this song live on forever

And her is my

Unopened letter to a world

That never shall reply, never shall reply.

 

chorus 1:

From my second story window

I can hear the church bells calling out my name

This table is set for one

Even angels would be homesick in this forsaken town.

 

Verse 2:

On random notes of parchment

I'm scrawling my existence, dressed in white

This candle radiates throughout the night

And it's never burning out, never burning out

 

Chorus 2:

From this second story window

I can hear the children down on Main Street

They're singing their songs tonight

In the shadows, I will listen to their every movement.

 

Bridge:

Mr. Higginson, am I not good enough for the world?

Am I destined only to die the same way that I lived, in seclusion?

 

Chorus 3:

From high upon this mountain

I can almost see your lonely windowsill

They'll carry you off tonight

There's a ghost in your old bedroom

And a candle burning bright.

 

If I die tomorrow, would this song live on forever?

 

 

 

I think that's how it goes. It sounds exactly like the CD version of the song.
