Intro: G5 G5 C5 C5

G5
I was spinning through the air
                            E5
when I thought my life was ending,
            C5
but I was really on the ground and
D5                                  G5
you were lying right there next to me.
G5
I looked right into your eyes
                          E5
and I found myself pretending
              C5
that we were high above the canopy
       D5                         G5
but tethered to the trunk of a tree.



C5                D5        E5
Slow down, take time, and see
       G5             C5
the forest for the leaves.
C5           D5           G5
I know that I, should practice
       E5  C5  G5
what I preach


G5
I was falling to the ground
                    E5
when I felt my body breaking,
             C5
but I had fallen in your lap
      D5
with my head tilted back so I can see
G5
the sun eclipsed by your hair
                   E5
that left a halo hanging
           C5
Waiting above so when you go
D5                                    G5
you wont have to wait to get your wings


C5                D5        E5
Slow down, take time, and see
       G5             C5
the forest for the leaves.
C5           D5            G5
I know that I, should practice
        E5 C5  G5
what I preach
