The days of our age are threescore years and ten,
DmC
And though men be so strong that they come,
BbCFAmDm
To fourscore years, yet is their strength then,
ABbCAmBb
But labour and sorrow, so soon passeth it away,
BbCDF
And we are gone,
FC
And as for me, my feet are almost gone,
DmBbC
My treadings are well nigh slipped,
BbF
But let not the waterflood drown me,
AmDmEAmCFG
Neither let the deep swallow me up, (swallow me up)
CG
So going through the Vale of Misery,
Dm
I shall use it for a well,
G
Till the pools are filled with water,
EbBb
For thou hast made the North and the South,
CmDG
Tabor and Hermon shall rejoice in thy name.
