Verse: E  A9 repeated    
Now she's thinking of the red soil and the mango trees 

In her mind she's still splashing round out on cable beach 

And her eyes are as rich and as far away as the sunset there 

She's not taking in a word I say 
       B        A9   E      A9  B   B 
Well I might as well be talking to myself 

Chorus: 
        E    B 
Take it in, 
  A   B 
take it all in 
E             A                      B             B 
Now is a time that will not come again 
        E  B 
Take it in, 
  A   B 
take it all in 
E         A9            B              B 
This is a day that is here for the living 
Verse: E  A  repeated    
So we step outside into this Melbourne weather 

With a shock it brings her back to where she is 

Now we've made this place our home 

Surrounded by unknown 

Stick it out until it comes together 

Chorus: 

Take it in, take it all in 

Now is a time that will not come again 

Take it in, take it all in 

This is a day that is here for the living 
C#m      B         C#m  C#m7  C#m 
We're just living for a day to come or days gone by 
      E                            A9 
Never taking in each moment 
 C#m      A9     B   B/F# 
Never knowing what you had until it passed you by 
Chorus: 
Take it in, take it all in 
Now is a time that is here for the living

  NOTE  
  Vicki plays Take It In live with a capo on the second fret instead of open. So  
  instead of the chords being E , A and B , they should be D , G , and A. The bridge  
  should be B , A instead of C#m , B. It sounds much better with the capo. Melissa
