Passing of the days(Keyboard chords)

	        E 
May you travel bright and cheery 
         A                          E 
the many roads ahead you'll have to blaze 
 
gonna be hard times to make you weary 
       A           B              E 
it's a part of the passing of the days. 
 
A                          E 
With all the people in the middle 
        B                   A                 E 
selling things that self-destruct and make us bleed. 
F#m                    G#m 
One day it's all gonna fall down 
     A                                  B 
then you find out you're all you really need. 
 
 
E 
May you wander through the changes 
         A                            E 
with the warmth of the sun behind the haze. 
 
When your lifestyle quickly rearranges 
        A          B              E 
may you follow the passing of the days. 
 
A                      E 
We trade our money for magic words 
     B            A                   E 
like Dumbo flyin' high in the nightly show 
F#m                         G#m 
you think you can't fly without them 
    A                                B 
but someday when it happens you will know 
 
E 
May you travel bright and cheery 
         A                          E 
the many roads ahead you'll have to blaze 
 
gonna be hard times to make you weary 
         A           B              C#m  B A 
it's all part of the passing of the days, 
        F#m7       B              E 
may you follow the passing of the days.
