This is the beautiful theme song to M*A*S*H.
Slap a capo on the 2nd fret and you're good to go.

VERSE

        Dm7           G7
Through Early morning fog I see
C              Am7
Visions of the things to be
    Dm7              G7
The pains that are withheld for me
C             Am          A7
I realize and I can see


CHORUS

     Dm7        G7
That Suicide is Painless
C                Am7
It brings on many changes
    Dm7            G                     Am
And I can  take or leave if it I please


VERSE

The game of life is hard to play
I'm gonna to lose it anyway
The losing card I'll someday lay
So this is all I have to say


CHORUS

Suicide is Painless
It brings on many changes
And I can  take or leave if it I please

VERSE

The sword of time will pierce our skin
It doesn't hurt when it begins
But as it works it's way on in
The pain grows stronger watch it grin


CHORUS


VERSE

A brave man once requested me
To answer questions that are key
Is it to be or not to be
And I replied "Oh why ask me"


CHORUS

Suicide is Painless
It brings on many changes
And I can  take or leave it if I please


ENDING

    Dm7     Dm7    G          G
And you can do the same thing if you please

   Am                                   Am
