[Verse 1]
G
Wisdom is good, it puts eyes in your head
Em
But it's foolish to think it'll save you from death
D
Both the fool and the wise man are numbering their breaths
C G
And in the end, all this wisdom is just meaningless
[Verse 2]
G
Pleasure is nice, the taste and touch
Em
But with all your indulgence, you can't get enough
D
You can chase every pleasure around every bend
C G
But in the end all this chasin' is just chasin' wind
[Chorus]
Em D C Em D C
Ooo--oh all is vanity, ooo--oh all is vanity
Em D C D
You feel eternity and it's beating in your chest
Em D C
So you know in your soul it's not all meaningless
[*Verse 3 not on original recording*]
G
Workin is good, Money keeps you fed
Em
But you can’t take it with you When you are dead
D
When all that you made Will all turn to rust
C G
In the end it won’t matter When you turn to dust
[Verse 4]
G
Beauty is sweet to the beholder's eye
Em
And you know it when you see it 'cause it echoes the Light
D
But age and opinion bid beauty goodbye
C G
And in the end the beholder just changes his mind
[Chorus]
Em D C Em D C
Ooo--oh all is vanity, ooo--oh all is vanity
