Ab I'll never forget when we started out A beat of the drum , a face in the crowd C# It's better this way, it's better this way How far we've come now not a soul can change Ab Remember the road running under our feet We'd shoot for the stars but we'd aim at the trees C# It's better this way, it's better this way Gambling with life it was our turn to play Ab It's time C# Only when you look forward can you see behind? We bought the ticket so we'll take the ride Ab Every trial and every test We'd drive to the East and we'd fly to the West C# Just running away, just running away We can be different 'cause they're all the same Ab Every night that we'd ever start In every beat of every heart C# Is running way, just running away Catching our breath at the end we could say Ab It's time C# Only when you look forward can you see behind? Ab Every taste we could get was just sweet sublime C# Holding on to the moment we let go alive We bought the ticket so we'll take the ride Fm Day after day in the light C# We're glowing in the dark Ab Standing was the sketch Eb Where falling wasn't hard Fm We lost ourselves to find C# We're somewhere down the line Ab It's time Fm Day after day in the light C# We're glowing in the dark Ab Standing was the sketch Eb Where falling wasn't hard Fm We lost ourselves to find C# We're somewhere down the line Ab It's time Ab For some it's a God, for me it's a fact C# We make a mistake and try taking one back Ab It's better this way, it's better this way C# Out of the grind and then into the grave Ab It's time C# Only when you look forward can you see behind? Ab Every taste we could get was just sweet sublime C# Holding on to the moment we let go alive We bought the ticket so we'll take the ride We bought the ticket so we'll take the ride Ab
