[INTRO] [VERSE 1] Because I could not stop for Death... He kindly stopped for me... The Carriage held but just Ourselves... And Immortality... We slowly drove, He knew no haste... And I had put away... My labor and my leisure too... For His Civility... [PRE-CHORUS] We passed the School, where Children strove... At Recess, in the Ring... We passed the Fields of Gazing Grain... We passed the Setting Sun... [CHORUS] Because I could not stop for Death... He kindly stopped for me... He kindly stopped for me... He kindly stopped for me... And Immortality... And Immortality... [VERSE 2] The Carriage held but just Ourselves... And Immortality... Ourselves... And Immortality... [BRIDGE] Because I could not stop for Death... He kindly stopped for me... We slowly drove, He knew no haste... And Immortality... [BUILD] We paused before a House that seemed... A Swelling of the Ground... [FINAL CHORUS] Because I could not stop for Death... He kindly stopped for me... He kindly stopped for me... He kindly stopped for me... Because I could not stop for Death... And Immortality... And Immortality... And Immortality... [OUTRO] He kindly stopped for me... He kindly stopped for me... He kindly stopped for me... He kindly stopped for me... Rearrangement of an original poem by Emily Dickinson (1830-1886)
