VERSE 1:
Em	 Bm/D	           C	     G/B
It was a test we could all hope to pass
       D/F#	Em		Am  D/A  Am  B
But none of us would want to take
Em		Bm/D	    C		   G/B
Faced with the choice to deny God and live
      D/F#	     Em	           Am	D/A  Am
For her there was one choice to make

CHORUS:
	         G
This was her time
	         D/F#
This was her dance
		Em7			  Csus2
She lived ev'ry moment, left nothin' to chance
       C		   G
She swam in the sea
	         D/F#
Drank of the deep
	           Em7		     Csus2  C
Embraced the mystery of all she could be
Csus2	         Em
This was her time

(Em)  D  C  G/B

VERSE 2:
Em		  Bm/D		  C		G/B
Though you are mourning and grieving your loss
D/F#	         Em	  Am  D/A  Am  B
Death died a long time ago
Em	           Bm/D	     C	           G/B
Swallowed in life, so her life carries on
D/F#	       Em      Am    D/A  Am
Still, it's so hard to let go

CHORUS:
	         G
This was her time

       C		   G
She swam in the sea
	         D/F#
Drank of the deep
	           Em7			  Csus2
Embraced the mystery of all she could be
C	 G
What if tomorrow
	        D/F#
And what if today
		Em7			      Csus2
Faced with the question, oh, what would you say?

Am7  G  Dsus4/F#  D/F#
G  G/B  Csus2

To swim in the sea

Drink of the deep

And fall on the mercy and hear yourself praying
	        G	    D/G
"Won't You save me?

Won't You save me?"

Embrace the mystery of all you can be

This is your time

This is your dance
