Verse
C5                                         G5
 I spent the morning at an old friend's grave
             A5                    E5    D5
Flowers and Amazing Grace, he was a good man
A5                                     G5
  He spent his whole life spinnin' his wheels
C5                     E5         D5
Never knowin' how the real thing feels
C5               G5                 E5       D5
He never took a chance or took the time to dance
      E5          C5             G5        D5
And I stood there thinking as I said goodbye
  A5           G5                C5          D5
  Today is the first day of the rest of my life


Chorus
           G5                  C5              A5
I'm gonna stop lookin' back and start movin' on
     E5                  D5
And learn how to face my fears
          G5         E5             A5  
Love with all of my heart, make my mark
  E5                       D5
I wanna leave something here                                     
   C5               G5                 E5                        A5
Go out on a ledge, with out any net, That's what I'm gonna be about
                G5                 D5        C5
Yeah I wanna be runnin', When the sand runs out



C5                         G5
 'Cause people do it everyday,
A5                         E5    D5
Promise themselves they're gonna change,
     E5   A5        C5                        G5
I've been there,    but I'm changin' from the inside out
E5                        D5
That was then and this is now
      G5   E5   C5                     D5 
I'm a new man, yeah, I'm a brand new man
      E5        C5                    G5             D5
  And when they carve my stone they'll write these words
  A5                   G5              C5            D5
  "Here lies a man who lived life for all that its worth"

Chorus
           G5                  C5              A5
I'm gonna stop lookin' back and start movin' on
     E5                  D5
And learn how to face my fears
          G5         E5             A5  
Love with all of my heart, make my mark
  E5                       D5
I wanna leave something here                                     
   C5               G5                 E5                        A5
Go out on a ledge, with out any net, That's what I'm gonna be about
                G5                 D5        C5
Yeah I wanna be runnin', When the sand runs out


Bridge
                   A5  
And as a cold wind blows across the grave yard
E5      G5           C5                      E5      A5     D5   E5
I think I hear the voice of my old friend whisper in     my  ear


D5         G5                  C5              A5
I'm gonna stop lookin' back and start movin' on
     E5                  D5
And learn how to face my fears
          G5              E5      A5  
Love with all of my heart, make my mark
  E5                       D5
I wanna leave something here                                     
   C5               G5                 E5                        A5
Go out on a ledge, with out any net, That's what I'm gonna be about
           G5                 D5        C5
I wanna be runnin', When the sand runs out
D5        A5         G5                 D5        C5
Oh yeah, I wanna be runnin', When the sand runs out
