Lyrics

If this (G)life is one act, why do we (D)lay all these traps?

We put ’em (Em)right in our path when we just (C)wan na be free.

I will not (G)waste my days mak ing up (D)all kinds of ways to wor ry (Em)’bout all the things that will not (C)hap pen to me.

So I (Am)just let go of what I (Bm)know I don’t know.

And I (C)know I on ly (D)do this by liv ing in the (G)mo ment, liv ing my (D)life,

eas y and (Em)breez y with peace in my (C)mind,

with peace in my (G)heart,

with peace in my (D)soul.

Wher ev er I’m (Em)go ing, I’m al read y home.

Liv ing in the (G)mo ment.

I’m let ting (G)my self off the hook for (D)things I’ve done.

I let my (Em)past go past, and now I’m (C)hav ing more fun.

I’m let ting (G)go of the thoughts that do not (D)make me strong.

And I be lieve this way can feel the same for (C)ev er y one.

And if I (Am)fall a sleep, I (Bm)know you’ll be the (C)one who’ll al ways (D)re mind me to live in the (Em)go ing, I’m al read y home.

I can’t (D)walk through (Em)life (Am)fac (Bm)ing (C)back (D)wards.

(Bm)I have (Em)tried.

I tried more than (Bm)once to just make sure, and (D)I was de nied the (Am)fu ture I’d been search ing for.

I spun a round and hurt no more

by liv ing in the (G)mo ment, liv ing my (D)life,

eas y and (Em)breez y with peace in my (C)mind,

with peace in my (G)heart,

with peace in my (D)soul.

Wher ev er I’m (Em)go ing, I’m al read y home.

I’m a liv ing in the (G)mo ment.

I’m a liv ing my (D)life, just tak in’ it (Em)eas y with peace in my (C)mind.

Got peace in my (G)heart.

Got peace in my (D)soul.

Wher ev er I’m (Em)go ing, I’m al read y home.

I’m a liv ing in the (G)mo ment.

I’m a liv ing my (D)life,

eas y and (Em)breez y with peace in my (C)mind,

with peace in my (G)heart,

with peace in my (D)soul.

Wher ev er I’m (Em)go ing, I’m al read y home.

Liv ing in the (G)mo ment.
