 verse 1: (use the plucking pattern above)
 G           D
 How can I find us something
 Em            D
 That two can take
 C           G 
 Without stumbling as we
 Em                      D  
 Walk into out future's wake 
 

 verse 2:
 G             D            
 I'm like a broken record
      Em       D
 That you can play
 C            G                      
 Repeating as if it matters
 Em                  A
 Everything I wanna say


 chorus:
 G   D/F#      Em      
 I'll be alright
                 C   
 As long as it matters
                            D(hold)
 As long as you're with me now 


 verse 3: (do chord of verse 1)
 Forget that time 
 It's nothing we touch and see 
 All this time
 Even as it crushes down on me


 verse 4: (do chord of verse 2)
 I'm looking around 
 There's nothing I could want 
 More than to tell you
 There's no more than we've already got


 (repeat chorus twice)
