verse:
G            Cadd9           Dsus2
See the moon roll across the stars
G               Cadd9       Dsus2
See the seasons turn like a heart
G                      Cadd9   Dsus2
Your Father's Days are lost to you
             Em7          Cadd9              Dsus4 D
This is your time here to do what you will do

chorus:
             Em                Cadd9             D
Your life is now, your life is now, your life is now
        Em             Cadd9
In this undiscovered moment
          D
Lift your head up above the crowd
         Em               Cadd9
We could shake this world
             D
If you would only show us how
                 G
Your life is now

verse:
G                    Cadd9                Dsus2
Would you teach your children to tell the truth
G                  Cadd9                  Dsus2
Would you take the high road if you could choose
G                       Cadd9                   Dsus2
Do you believe you're a victim of a great compromise
          Em7                         Cadd9               Dsus4  D
Cause I believe you could change your mind and change our lives
