THE MOMENT
by Nine Days
Written by John Hampson

Standard Tuning

Intro--D--G--G/B--Asus4

1ST VERSE

D              G
I can see that someone

G/B                Asus4
Went and left you hanging from a string

D          G
And if I pulled hard

G/B              Asus4
I could make you do most anything

D        G            G/B
You can run from the past

      Asus4
But mistakes are meant to last

D             G
Between the lines

G/B        Asus4    A
These are mine

CHORUS

G                   A
The moment that you go

                        G
Is the moment that you know

                             A                G
That the best thing in your life is happening

                  A
So look me in the eye

                           G
And say you'll never say goodbye

            A                G
I know the best thing in my life

              D
Is happening now

(Same chord progression for 2nd and 3rd verse and all choruses)

SECOND VERSE

You can tell your father
I know that he won't let you be
Doesn't want to believe 
That you see him in me
But the way that you lay
So serene inside the gloom
I don't care
I don't care

CHORUS

The moment that we go
Is the moment that we'll know
That the best thing in our life is happening
So before we say goodbye
And leave them all behind
Know the best thing in our life is happening now

BRIDGE

    D        G      G/B    Asus4
And I won't let you ever fade

       D        G    G/B  Asus4
Like a sunburn wasted in LA

          D          G           G/B      Asus4
And if we fall down breaking all along the way

              D               G                G/B    Asus4
I'll lift you up and that's a promise that I'll never break

           D     G    G/B   Asus4
And then you won't

           D     G    G/B   Asus4
And then you won't


THIRD VERSE

We sit on the steps
Reading graffiti on the wall
The smile on your face
More than words, it says it all
On your way, you will find
The meaning in the rhyme
You were mine
You were mine

CHORUS

The moment that we go
Is the moment that we'll know
That the best thing in our life is happening
So before we say goodbye
And leave them all behind
Know the best thing in our life is happening....... now

INTRO CHORDS TWICE AND END ON  "D"
