G#m C#m
[Verse 1]G#m
All your life has been rambling, scurrying
G#m
Take your time rather than hurry
C#m
Never too late to write the rest of your story
C#m
Remember to breathe or else you're gonna be sorry
G#m
Life's no race, it's a companion
G#m
Always face with reckless abandonment
C#m
A ticket to life as the mother once told me
C#m
Stick with your pride and you're gonna be lonely
[Chorus 1]B F# G#m
Everybody says that life takes patience
E B
But nobody wants to wait
F# G#m
Everybody says we need salvation
E B
But nobody wants to be saved
F# G#m E B
The light in the tunnel is just another runaway train
F# G#m E B
The blue skies we wait on are gonna have to come after the rain
[Verse 2]G#m
Spend your days happy and grateful
G#m
Avoid the taste of wanting and wasteful
C#m
Every good thing will come in moderation
C#m
Envy and greed will only lead to frustration
G#m
Choose your friends, carefree and kindly
G#m
Choose your words, careful and wisely
C#m
Always be there to lend a comforting shoulder
C#m
One will be there to share and be when you're older (be when you're older}
[Chorus 2]B F# G#m
Everybody says that life takes patience

The light in the tunnel is just another runaway train
F# G#m E B
The blue skies we wait on are gonna have to come after the rain

Old mistakes committed upon us

Always take a toll on the conscience

Every regret is a gift that you live with
