In the Event of My Demise
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In the event of my demise
Pull a pennie from my eyes
Heads you get my gold
Tales you get my debt
In the event of my demise
If you should hear my name
Be a friend and please refrain
I'm saying we were friends
And let them tell their lies
In the event of my demise
Oh no, look at them go
Didn't they love me so?
Oh great, merciful fate
Guess it was worth the wait
Yes, it was worth the wait
When I was strong I fell
My body made me chase my tale
I was young and I was played
That all the plans we made
Would be unrealised
In the event of my demise
Oh no, look at them go
Didn't they love me so?
Oh great, merciful fate
I guess it was worth the wait
Oh yes, it was worth the wait
I guess it was worth the wait
Oh yes, it was worth the wait
