G / / / 2 / / / 3 / / / 4 / / / 5 / / / 6 / / / 7 / / /
                  C                 G
The sun is slowly fadin' in the western sky
                      C        G
Sometimes it takes forever the day to end
    Am
Sometimes it takes a lifetime
    C                                G
Sometimes I think I'll never see the sun again

Verse 2:
There's a heavy smog between me and the mountains
It's enough to make a grown man sit and cry
It's enough to make you wonder
It's enough to make the world roll up and die

CHORUS:
  Am                 C               D7                G
I think it's kind of interesting the way things get to be
    Em                               G
The way the people work wtih their machines
  Am         C         D         G
Serenity's a long time comin' to me
   Am                         C              D
In fact, I don't believe that I know what it means

Verse 3:
In the east a shaded moon is hangin' lazily
I do believe I saw the old man smile
I do believe I did
I do believe that he's been laughin' all the while

(chorus; add "anymore" to end of last line)

(repeat verse 1)
