Drippings Of The Past

C                             Em
time, is like a burning candle flaming with light
Am                    G
drippings of the past surround our future
C                    Em
life, leaving only residue behind
Am
the flame, the heart, the wick, the brain
    G
the wax that covers it all
F        G         Em              Am
protecting all the vital organs of time to come
F       G
as time melts away,
Em          Am
as so does nature's course
F                       G              C        (High F\E\F\E\D thing, Make it up dude!)
a force, even a burning flame cannot escape

(Chorus)
C
life is like a burning candle
Em
just waiting to
F             G
melt away


    C                       Em
And time, candle like man's birth
            Am
created for life on earth
                   G                   C
every memory takes form as does melted wax
                   Em
some memories they hang
           Am              G
the others, they only fall
    F          G          Em
the flame, the heart, the wick, the brain
    Am             F
the wax, protected all
    G          C             Am            F
now nothing is left, but the organs of our lives
         G              Am    G      C          (High F\E\D thing, Make it up dude!)
a force, even a burning Flame cannot escape!

(Chorus)
C
life is like a burning candle
Em
just waiting to
F             G
melt away

C
Yeeeeah...life is like a burning fucking candle
Em
just waiting to
F
melt away
G
melt away
Am
melt away
G
melt away


(breakdown Chorus)
C
life is like a burning candle
Em
just waiting to
F             G
melt away


            C
Aww yeah... life is like a fucking candle
Em
just waiting to
F
melt away

G
melt away
Am (and ring it out)
melt away
