Intro : [ Gsus1 (2 bars) Csus1 (2 bars) ] -- 2x
Gsus1
Today I watched in silence as people passed me by,
Csus1
And I strained to see if there was something hidden in their eyes;
Am Bmsus Csus
But they all looked back at me as if to say
Gsus Csus
Life just goes on.
Gsus1
The old familiar story told in different ways,
Csus1
Make the most of your own journey from the cradle to the grave;
Am Bmsus Csus
Dream your dreams tomorrow because today
Gsus1 Dsus Gsus
Life must go on.
CHORUS:
Csus Dsus Emsus
But there’s more to this life than living and dying,
Csus C/Emsus D
More than just trying to make it through the day;
Csus Dsus Emsus D
More to this life, more than these eyes alone can 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)
Am Bmsus
So where do we start to find every part
F Csus
Of what makes this life complete;
Am Bmsus
If we turn our eyes to Jesus we’ll find
F Csus D
Life’s true beginning is there at the cross where He died.
Emsus Csus Dsus
He died to bring us . . .
(chorus)
Comments about this tab
| lockespeaker - 2005-07-31 | | Ok for the most part its a really good tab but instead of Csus2 jus use C2 and...the brigde is the part that needs the most correction and the part that goes "through the day." I have the songbook so i'll try to put some corrections on later |

| KJSol - 2006-04-17 | Does anyone have the correct cords to this song?
There is no such cord as Csus1& Gsus1. |
| SCCdcTFreak - 2007-04-30 | | I've seen "the walk" video, and this is exactly what he's playing in that video. I'm not so sure it's what he plays on the original recording, but I've performed it in church using these chords, and have played along with the video using these chords -- it sounds great to me. This was one of the very first songs I learned, and this was the transcription that I used. |
