Eb 
If you leave this world before me 

A promise to you I shall keep 
  Fm 
I won't fall in love with another one 
          Eb 
Over your ashes I shall weep 

Eb 
If you leave before me 

I promise I never will tell 
 Fm 
About all the things we talked about 
         Eb 
Our dark secrets I'll keep well 


           Fm                Ab     Eb 
Aren't you glad, there ain't nobody listening? 
           Fm         Ab              Db           Ab 
Aren't you glad, that no one seems to care what we do? 
           Eb               Fm             Eb 
Aren't you glad there ain't no one here to tell us what's right or wrong? 
         Fm         Ab         Eb 
While we sit and we talk about nothing 

What if there's no God in Heaven? 
What if there's no God at all? 
I promise these last years of loving you 
Will be the best years of them all 

This don't look like heaven 
I'm surrounded by fiery walls 
For if I were to live here without you 
That'd be the greatest sin of them all 

Aren't you glad, there ain't nobody listening? 
Aren't you glad, that no one seems to care what we do? 
Aren't you glad there ain't no one here to tell us what's right or wrong? 
While we sit and we talk about nothing
