[Intro]
E E E
[Chorus]
A
It could be tomorrow or it could be today
G
when the sky takes the soul
A
the earth takes the clay
It could be tomorrow or it could be today
G
when the sky takes the soul
A
the earth takes the clay
[Verse 1]
A
I sometimes wonder
why I pray
G A
when my spirit just drives away
with a faith, and a bit of luck
G A
and a half sunk bog, in the back of a truck
[Chorus]
A
It could be tomorrow or it could be today
G
when the sky takes the soul
A
the earth takes the clay
It could be tomorrow or it could be today
G
when the sky takes the soul
A
the earth takes the clay
[Verse 2]
Feel the towel
it's wet with sorrow
G A
from the tears we'll shed tomorrow
Don't bring flowers, take a chance
G A
on some graves, you should dance
[Chorus]
A
It could be tomorrow or it could be today
G
when the sky takes the soul
A
the earth takes the clay
It could be tomorrow or it could be today
G
when the sky takes the soul
A
the earth takes the clay
[Bridge]
A bit like this
A G A
Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhh
G A
Aaaaaaaahh
[Verse 3]
If it's tomorrow or if it's today
G
I don't say it will be
A
I just say it may
When I'm on my knees
To the gates I'll stumble
G
and I'll plead my case
A
in a style that's humble
Chorus/Outro
A
It could be tomorrow or it could be today
G
when the sky takes the soul
A
the earth takes the clay
It could be tomorrow or it could be today
G
when the sky takes the soul
A
the earth takes the clay
