[Verse 1]
E A E
Sometimes I tell you the way that I feel,
B E
I swear that I'm going crazy.
A E
Keep telling myself it ain't that big a deal,
B E A E B E
It's better than pushing up daisies.
[Verse 2]
E A E
I felt the arrow from death's fatal quiver
B E
Come so close it actually grazed me.
A E
I bled the blood and I felt the cold shiver,
B E
God only knows how he saved me.
[Chorus]
A E
There's two dates in time that they'll carve on the stone.
A Bsus B
Everyone knows what they mean.
A E
But what's more is important is the time that is known,
Dbm B A
By that little dash there in between.
Dbm B E A E B E
That little dash there in between.
[Verse 3]
E A E
Sometimes my heart is as true as a dove,
B E
Sometimes my heart it betrays me.
A E
So I draw my sword for to fight for my love,
B E
Without a whisper, she slays me.
[Instrumental]
E A E B E A E B E
[Verse 4]
E A E
My mother died, but somehow she keeps living,
B E
She'll never cease to amaze me.
A E
My dad turns his back on each day that he's given.....
B E
'Cause he'd rather be pushing up daisies.
[Chorus]
A E
There's two dates in time that they'll carve on the stone.
A Bsus B
Everyone knows what they mean.
A E
But what's more is important is the time that is known,
Dbm B A
By that little dash there in between.
Dbm B E A E B E
That little dash there in between.
