[Intro] C7M

       C              F
When I know I'm all alone
  C               F
I say your name slowly
      C               F
And I know that I'm alone
         Dm        F
But I'll carry you

        C                  F
Does it feel good like the memory
         C         F
When you try some history
       C              F
It's a dream to come around
        Dm
But who doesn't then
            F                              Am
Because the taste doesn't taste the same again

                  F                     Am
It's easy feeling righteous when you're new
                  F              Am
All you'll get is what you wanna hear
   C                F
It hurts because it should
    G                    C
How else am I to make it clear?

                     C/B       Am              F
I could never be the one that you want, don't ask
C                        C/B      Am
  Well, here's to living in the moment
            F
'Cause it passed

           C             F
Maybe your lie is what I need sometimes
             C                F
You told the most and best of anyone
             C               F
You said to "keep me in your pocket"
     Dm          F
So I carried you

           C                 F
You better choose your words carefully
            C        F
Because I'm not your anything
      C               F
Gonna stay here in my place
           Dm
And you'll stay in yours because
     F                             Am
Your only good is what you're good for
                  F                 Am
I pace around the room to spend the time
                  F                Am
Waiting while the burning pictures fade
    C                  F
One thing to make your mind
     G                  C
And another to say it's me

                     C/B      Am               F
I could never be the one that you want, don't ask
C                        C/B      Am
  Well, here's to living in the moment
            F
'Cause it passed, it passed

( C  C7M )
( C  C7M )

Em                             F
   I'm still carrying a little hope that
     C
Maybe things could be different now
           Em                F                 C
Is that so wrong, is that so wrong, is that so wrong?

Em                        F
   Would I see you tonight
                 C
At a place we'll go
                          C7M
(going through the motions, they lead to rhythm motion)
Em                          F
   I wanna make things right
                 C
Before time runs out
                  C7M
(was like you said, the taste don't taste like it should)
Em
   Roll down the windows
         F
Like the cold, they're coming
C                    C/B               F              G
Slap my face just to feel, to feel you somehow again, again

C                      C/B      Am               F
  I could never be the one that you want, don't ask
C                        C/B      Am
  Well, here's to living in the moment
            F
'Cause it passed

C                      C/B      Am               F
  I could never be the one that you want, don't ask
C                        C/B      Am
  Yeah, here's to living in the moment
            F
'Cause it passed, it passed

( C  C7M )

C           C7M C   C7M Am     F    C
  'Cause it passed, passed, it passed
