All At Once Tab

by Jack Johnson


Intro:     

        
All at once
                    
The world can overwhelm me
                                      
There’s almost nothing that you could tell me
                  
That could ease my mind


                   
Which way will you run?
                       
When it’s always all around you
                           
And the feeling lost and found you again
                          
A feeling that we have no control


            
Around the sun, some say
                       
It’s going to be the new hell, some say
                           
It’s still too early to tell, some say
                                   
Some say it really ain’t no myth at all


                 
We keep asking ourselves
                      
Are we really strong enough?
                
There’re so many things
                     
That we got too proud of
                      
Too proud of, too proud of


           
I want to take the preconceived
           
Out from underneath your feet
           
We could shake it off
                   
And instead we’ll plant some seeds
       
We’ll watch them as they grow
          
And with each new beat
            
From your heart the roots grow deeper
                                  
The branches, well they reach for what?


               
Nobody really knows

But underneath it all
                        
There’s this heart all alone
                     
What about when it’s gone?
                      
It really won’t be so long
              
Sometimes it feels like a heart
                                  
Is no place to be singing from at all


            
There’s a world we’ve never seen
               
There’s still hope between the dreams
                                 
The weight of it all could blow away with a breeze
                
But if you’re waiting on the wind

Don’t forget to breathe
                  
Because as the darkness gets deeper
                              
We’re sinking so we reach for love


                           
At least something we can hold
           
But I’ll reach to you
                           
From where time just can’t go
                     
What about when it’s gone?
                      
It really won’t be so long
               
Sometimes it feels like a heart
                                  
Is no place to be singing from at all.
