[Intro] Am Am/G Dm Am

[Verse 1] 
Am                        Dm
  Sometimes when I start life to measure, 
Am                     G       F        Am
  I think about the things I wish I'd done. 
                          Dm
Who knows if there'll be any treasure 
Am                    F      G       C  Cadd2 C
  To last beyond the fading of the sun? 

F               G
Though sometimes I may fear 
Dm               C
I've lived in vain. 
F           G
I search for answers here 
Dm          Am
While I remain. 

[Chorus] 
          F    C       G               Dm
For the truth lies in open skies and down by the sea. 
        F    C       G                  Bb   F    G
I will lay down, my soul is found, my spirit set free. 

[Verse 2]
Sometimes when I start life to measure, 
I think about the things I wish I'd said. 
Mere words can change the course forever 
And fill the soul with life or deep regret. 

Though sometimes I may fear 
What I have done. 
I know my journey here 
Has just begun. 

[Chorus 2x]
