Epitaph by Judas Priest
Epitaph
Capo:no capo
intro: C F Am G C F Am G
C G C Am
The old man's sitting there, his head bowed down
F G#dim Am G
Every now and then he'll take a look around
F G Em Am
And his eyes reflect the memory-pain of years gone by
Am F G Dm G Em C F Am G
He can't regain nostalgic dreams he'll never see again
C G C Am
With trembling hands, he wipes a tear
F G#dim Am G
Many fall like rain, there's one for every year
F G Em Am
And his life laid out so clearly now, life that's brought death
Am F G Dm G Em C F Am G
So nearly now life once he clung to dearly now lets go
F Am G C
But spare a thought as you pass him by
Am G F
Take a closer look and you'll say
Am G C F Am G
He's our tomorrow, just as much as we are his yesterday
C G C Am
A lonely grave, and soon forgot
F G#dim Am G
Only wind and leaves lament his mournful song
F G Em
Yet they shout his epitaph out clear
Am Am F
For anyone who's passing near
G Dm G Em C
It names the person lying here as you
And you...and you...and you...
