Half Alive


Tom: Cm

Fm
  It was something I believed in
                        Gm             Abmaj7
Ain't no rest until the bank account's peakin'
                                 Gm7
They say the city never sleeps in
    Cm          Fm
But living busy isn't giving you your worth
                G            Abmaj7
Slowing down is fighting back
                     Gm7       C7
The time you take is given back
Fm7
Shifting gears is saving gas

[Pre-Chorus]
              Gm7        Abmaj7      Ab
Hiding in the quiet is a world of wisdom
Cm      Fm
Slowing down and see it

[Chorus]
Fm
Rest is a secret
  Cm               Eb
I start to believe in

[Verse 2]
Fm
  This city's built on blood and muscle (Yeah, yeah)
                       Gm
Skyscrapers held up by philosophy of hustling
Abmaj7                      Gm7
But Saturday is my cathedral
Cm7                       Fm7
A day to stop and rest is holding up the steeple
Fm7
This might be news to all the people
G7    Abmaj7                      Gm7  Fm7
Living busy isn't giving you your worth

[Pre-Chorus]
Fm7
Slowing down is fighting back
              Gm7        Abmaj7
Hiding in the quiet is a world of wisdom
               Ab                 Gm7           Cm7 Fm7
Calling on the voice so you could finally listen

[Chorus]
Fm7
Rest is a secret
  Cm7              Ebmaj7         Cm
I start to believe in (Believe in)
Fm                       Cm             Eb
  Stopping the motion to process the moment
                         Cm   Fm
(Why don't we stop just to process?)

[Verse 3]
Cm
  Can I take a minute'š maybe a breath to breathe?
Fm                                      C
Can I take a second? I'm craving clarity
   Ab
So lost in the thought of what one day I could be that
     Cm7                   Fm
That I forgot to take some time to make a richer me
Cm
  I searched around to find myself a mental cure
                         Abm
I took a break'š that's probably what I was looking for
Cm                       N.C.
  What once was lost has finally got me reassured

[Bridge]
Fm                 Cm
  Leaving room for greater paths
Cm
Letting go and kicking back
Cm7               Fm7
Reading books and taking baths
Fm7
Slowing down is

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Cm7           Fm7
   Rest is a secret
  Cm7              Ebmaj7         C Cm
I start to believe in (Believe in)
Fm                       Cm             Eb
  Stopping the motion to process the moment
Eb
(Stopping the motion)
                              Cm
Now we stopped'š you're used to it
