Tom : G
G Cadd9
Sometimes I get all caught up in these frustrations,
G Cadd9
And all my mama?s good raising, just disappears,
G Cadd9
I forget how far and dark and deep a careless word can fly
G Cadd9
I hurt the ones I hold so dear,
G Cadd9
Sometimes between the ruts and the rain and the train wrecks and the pay cheques,
G Cadd9
I get to feeling so damn small,
G Cadd9
And I forget that when it?s all said and done
I wanna be that someone,
G Cadd9
Who steps up and spray paints on the wall,
G D Em Cadd9
I was here, I?m alive, I did more than survive
[Refrão]
G
Changed a life, Touched a heart,
D
Look a stand, left a mark
Em C
Made the most out of all of my years
Am Cadd9
You won?t need to see my name carved on a head stone to know I was here
[Próxima Parte]
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
Between the fancy jeans the hot wings and the big screens,
G Cadd9
You?d think that all I?d ever need was at a shopping mall
G Cadd9
But I forget the most important things in this life,
G Cadd9
Hey yeah, Just might not be things at all,
G Cadd9
So I?m gunna stop to thank a few of my earth bound angels
G Cadd9
For picking me up off the ground,
G
I?m gunna stop worrying bout a buck or two
Cadd9 Em
And start thinkin bout what?ll fill up all them pews
D Cadd9
The day they lay me down
G D Em Cadd9
I was here, I?m alive, I did more than survive
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
G D Em
Nahnahnana Nahnahnana Nahnahnana
Cadd9 G D Em Cadd9
Ooohhh I was here, I?m alive, I did more than survive
[Refrão] (repetir)
