All That Matters chords by Laura Michelle Kelly

* means to strum once
** means to stop


Intro:

A E Fm D


Verse:

A*                              E*
There are days when I feel so afraid
  Fm*                     D*
I can hardly remember to breathe
     A*                 E*
When reality crashes in wave after wave
Fm*            D*
Pulling me far underneath
              A                       E
So what's the point in planning for a future
      Fm                D
If it all can be stolen away
     A                    E
It's all I can do to hold on and survive
         Fm                   D
When the colors have faded to grey

Pre-Chorus:

       C                     G
But my children need so much more from me
         C                          D
And they give me the strength to go on
D*
Whatever may come


Chorus:

G        C       D
All that matters now
G          C       D
Is where I go from here
       Em          C
I know I'll find a way
     D        G
If I live for today
    G       C     D
The beating of my heart
            C
Is all that matters


Verse 2:

A                           E
He makes sense of all of my chaos
   Fm               D
In ways I can never explain
         A                 E
He turns all of my sadness into a smile
     Fm                   D
He's helping me live life again
         A                    E
It's the light in the eyes of my children
         Fm                           D
It's the sound of their laughter once more
       A                         E
It's a glimpse of a life I dared only to dream
      Fm                    D
And a dream only life could restore


Pre-Chorus 2:

      C
And I know that some
        G
May not understand
         C                    D
But he's guiding me safely to shore
D
Not afraid anymore


Chorus:

G        C       D
All that matters now
G          C       D
Is where I go from here
       Em          C
I know I'll find a way
     D        G
If I live for today
    G       C     D
The singing in my heart
            G* G* C* C* D
Is all that matters


Chorus 2:

   G        C   D
It takes me far away
           Em     C
There's an easier way
     D        G
If I live for today
    G       C     D
The singing in my heart
D*         **
Is all that

Matters
