"This Is My Now"

Capo 6th

C                                                          Am
There was a time I packed my dreams away
                    C                              Fmaj7
Living in a shell, hiding from myself.
C                                                  Am
There was a time when I was so afraid
                                          C
I thought I’d reached the end.
                              Fmaj7
Baby, that was then.
                              C                        Am      G
But I am made of more than my yesterdays.
                  C
This is my now,
                                             F
And I am breathing in the moment.
                     C
As I look around,
          Am                         C
I can’t believe the love I see.

Fmaj7
My fear’s behind me,
C                                        Am
Gone are the shadows and doubt.
                Fmaj7
That was then.
                    C
This is my now.

C                  Am
I had to decide.
               C                  Fmaj7
Was I gonna play it safe?
C                                       Am
Or look somewhere deep inside,
                        C
Try to turn the tide.
                                         Fmaj7              G
Find the strength to take that step of faith?

This is my now,
                                              F
And I am breathing in the moment.
                       C
As I look around,
     Am                           C
I can’t believe the love I see.
Fmaj7
My fear’s behind me,
C                                     Am
Gone are the shadows and doubt.
                Fmaj7
That was then.
                   C
This is my now.


                      Fmaj7                   C
I have a courage like never before, yeah.
                   Fmaj7                        C
I settled for less, but I’m ready for more.
                    G
Ready for more…

And I am breathing in the moment.

I can’t believe the love I see.

My fear’s behind me,
Fmaj7                                    Am
Gone are the shadows and doubt.
