[Intro Riff] [CHORUS] Because I could not stop for Death – He kindly stopped for me – The Carriage held but just Ourselves – And Immortality. [VERSE 1] We slowly drove – He knew no haste And I had put away My labor and my leisure too, For His Civility – [drop] [VERSE 2] We passed the School, where Children strove At Recess – in the Ring – We passed the Fields of Gazing Grain – We passed the Setting Sun – [VERSE 3] Or rather – He passed Us – [Solo] The Dews drew quivering and Chill – For only Gossamer, my Gown – My Tippet – only Tulle – [Guitar Solo B, Saxophone riff] [CHORUS] Because I could not stop for Death – He kindly stopped for me – The Carriage held but just Ourselves – And Immortality. [Solo] [outro] [VERSE 4] We paused before a House that seemed A Swelling of the Ground – The Roof was scarcely visible – The Cornice – in the Ground – [Solo] [VERSE 5] Since then – 'tis Centuries – and yet Feels shorter than the Day I first surmised the Horses' Heads Were toward Eternity – [Drop] [Solo] [CHORUS] Because I could not stop for Death – He kindly stopped for me – The Carriage held but just Ourselves – And Immortality.
