The Future That Was

G 320033
Cadd9 x32033
D xx0232
G
And it starts like this we crave to be kissed
Cadd9
by a moment complete in its happiness
G
Far away from the things that we wish to escape
Cadd9
that lead us to think we are not awake
G
We are ourselves despite ourselves
Cadd9
this place gets smaller as the universe swells
GCadd9
We come to terms eventually, eventually, eventually.
GCadd9GCadd9
I am not the only cowboy in this one horse metaphor
GCadd9GCadd9
And I am not the only life guard who's washed up on the shore
CHORUS:
DD
Wake me up take me out
CD
Calm me down when I'm in doubt
DCadd9
And I'm in doubt
GCadd9
Everyday
GCadd9
And words are like weight with density and shape modifying forms they evaporate
G
You can choose the truth you can listen to light
Cadd9
you can lead the charge and still loose the fight
G
Far be it for me to claim anything
Cadd9
for I am just one in a state of being
GCadd9
I come to terms eventually, eventually, eventually
GCadd9GCadd9
I am not the only proverb that never really fits
GCadd9GCadd9
And I am not the only Caulfield who's catching more than kids
CHORUS
GCadd9
And so it ends as it begins as everything that is infinite ascends
GCadd9
Into it's time all things pass all things fade all things last
G
You are yourself despite yourself
Cadd9
this world grows smaller as the universe swells
GCadd9
We come to terms eventually, eventually, eventually
GCadd9GCadd9
I am not the only boxer that hasn't words to write
GCadd9GCadd9
And I am not the only poet who's much too scared to fight
CHORUS
G
And it starts like this we crave to be kissed
Cadd9
by a moment complete in its happiness
GCadd9
We are ourselves, eventually, eventually, eventually
GCadd9GCadd9
I am not the only cowboy in this one horse metaphor
This is my first ever attempt at this, so please don't hesitate to correct me. I believe
transistion are all in the correct places but I'm not confident I have the chords
especially in the chorus. Thanks
