D                 G/D
The way things are, the way things were
C#dim                    D11/G
They don't agree and that's where it hurts
D                          G/D
Long lost songs from voices with empty lungs
C#dim              D11/G
Melodies so sweet, never to be sung

🎸 Verse 2:
D                      G/D
Youth stained love will fall away
C#dim                       D11/G
The things we share no longer permeate
D                      G/D
The old dreams that we held at night
C#dim                   D11/G
That never seem to take flight

🎸 Chorus:
    Em7/D                    Bm
But Here and now is all life has to give
         F#m                        D11/G
Dwelling on the past won't teach me how to live

I'll never learn how to live

🎸 Verse 3:
D                    G/D
I praise the sky as I curse my breath
C#dim                 D11/G
A sojourner gasping for rest
D                   G/D
But in the end what will I hang on to
C#dim            D11/G
What will I hang onto

Here and now is all I'll ever be

I'm breathing
I'm breathing
           Em7/D                      G/D
But these fears of mine, they take a hold of me
    Bm                        F#m
They won't let go, won't let go

🎸 Chorus:
Em7/D                       Bm
But here and now is all life has to give
         F#m                       D11/G
Dwelling on the past won't teach me how to live
D11/G
Will I ever learn how to live
