Capo 1st Fret
Intro: bass only but you can play G, C if you want.
G
I'll never forget when we started out
A beat of the drum, a face in the crowd
C
It's better this way, it's better this way
How far we've come now not a soul can change
G
Remember the road running under our feet
We'd shoot for the stars but we'd aim at the trees
C
It's better this way, it's better this way
Gambling with life it was our turn to play
G
It's time
C
Only when you look forward can you see behind?
We bought the ticket so we'll take the ride
G
Every trial and every test
We'd drive to the East and we'd fly to the West
C
Just running away, just running away
We can be different 'cause they're all the same
G
Every night that we'd ever start
In every beat of every heart
C
Is running way, just running away
Catching our breath at the end we could say

C
Only when you look forward can you see behind?
G
Every taste we could get was just sweet sublime
C
Holding on to the moment we let go alive
We bought the ticket so we'll take the ride
Em
Day after day in the light
C
We're glowing in the dark
G
Standing was the sketch
D
Where falling wasn't hard
Em
We lost ourselves to find
C
We're somewhere down the line
G
It's time

Day after day in the light

G
It's time
G
For some it's a God, for me it's a fact
C
We make a mistake and try taking one back
G
It's better this way, it's better this way
C
Out of the grind and then into the grave
G
It's time
C
Only when you look forward can you see behind?
G
Every taste we could get was just sweet sublime
C
Holding on to the moment we let go alive
We bought the ticket so we'll take the ride

We bought the ticket so we'll take the ride
