Beautiful song from Nine Days from the album "Flying the Corporate Jet"
never could find a TAB for this song, so i did one myself.
THE MOMENT
by Nine Days
Written by John Hampson
Standard Tuning
Intro--D--G--G/B--Asus4
1ST VERSE
I can see that someone
Went and left you hanging from a string
And if I pulled hard
I could make you do most anything
You can run from the past
But mistakes are meant to last
Between the lines
These are mine
CHORUS
The moment that you go
Is the moment that you know
That the best thing in your life is happening
So look me in the eye
And say you'll never say goodbye
I know the best thing in my life
Is happening now
(Same chord progression for 2nd and 3rd verse and all choruses)
SECOND VERSE
You can tell your father
I know that he won't let you be
Doesn't want to believe
That you see him in me
But the way that you lay
So serene inside the gloom
I don't care
I don't care
CHORUS
The moment that we go
Is the moment that we'll know
That the best thing in our life is happening
So before we say goodbye
And leave them all behind
Know the best thing in our life is happening now
BRIDGE
And I won't let you ever fade
Like a sunburn wasted in LA
And if we fall down breaking all along the way
I'll lift you up and that's a promise that I'll never break
And then you won't
And then you won't
THIRD VERSE
We sit on the steps
Reading graffiti on the wall
The smile on your face
More than words, it says it all
On your way, you will find
The meaning in the rhyme
You were mine
You were mine
CHORUS
The moment that we go
Is the moment that we'll know
That the best thing in our life is happening
So before we say goodbye
And leave them all behind
Know the best thing in our life is happening....... now
INTRO CHORDS TWICE AND END ON "D"
