Intro : ( Gsus1 (2 bars) Csus1 (2 bars) ) -- 2x
Tod[Gsus1]ay I watched in silence as people passed me by,
And I [Csus1]strained to see if there was something hidden in their eyes;
But they [Am]all looked back at [Bmsus]me as if to [Csus]say
Life just goes [Gsus]on. [Csus]
The [Gsus1]old familiar story told in different ways,
Make the [Csus1]most of your own journey from the cradle to the grave;
[Am]Dream your dreams to[Bmsus]morrow because tod[Csus]ay
Life must go [Gsus1]on. [Dsus][Gsus]
CHORUS:
But there[Csus]217;s more to[Dsus] this life than livin[Emsus]g and dying,
More than just [Csus]trying to make it [C/Emsus]through the [D]day;
[Csus]More to this [Dsus]life, more than these [Emsus]eyes alone can [D]see,
Csus Gsus Csus(to v3,4)
And there’s more than this life alone can be.
Tonight he lies in silence staring into space,
And looks for ways to make tomorrow better than today,
But in the morning light it looks the same;
Life just goes on.
He takes care of his family, he takes care of his work,
And every Sunday morning he takes his place at the church;
And somehow he still feels a need to search,
But life just goes on.
(chorus)
So [Am]where do we start to [Bmsus]find every part
Of [F]what makes this life com[Csus]plete;
If [Am]we turn our eyes to J[Bmsus]esus we’ll find
[F]Life’s true beginni[Csus]ng is there at the cross [D]where He died.
He died [Emsus]to [Csus]bring [Dsus]us . . .
