Passing Through Chords by Kaden MacKay

[Start]

[Verse]
                          
Can't the future just wait
E                   G#7                  
Can't the deadlines come fashionably late
                   C#m      
I could push every goal back
     C#m         
Take control back
          C#m               
If they'd roll back the rate
                        E  
At which time starts to fly
              G#7           
Never landing or standing by
               G#7  
Never taking a break
            Amaj7   
Ever making me retry
   Cmaj7                          D  
We nickelanddime every quarter to two
                           E                
But maybe it's time to let time pass through
                 E     
If the future is bright
                      E                           
It doesn't shine with that end of the tunnel light
                        E         
More like a deer in the headlights
       E         
Sudden red lights
          E          
Or you're dead lights
       Am7            
As the anglerfish bite
         E   
It's not fair
                           G#7             
The past is clear but it's clear back there
                G#7      
What's ahead No one knows
                    Amaj7 C#m7 
But it's closing in we    swear
                Cmaj7                   C  D
Still not in my prime I have so much to do ■
                           E                
But maybe it's time to let time pass through


[Chorus]
                                         G#7         
I can't just rewrite decisions when life gets strange
                                      C#m          
Should I go with my gut on which door I should shut
C#m       
I'm unsure
    Amaj7                  
I'd keep exploring this rut
                              C#     B
But what good is time without change ■


[Verse]
Amaj7 F#m7 E      
■     ■    Move on
Amaj7                   
'cause things never last
E           
Just move on
          Amaj7                                
'cause it goes too fast and the past has passed
   Amaj7  
So move on
E                     
No one likes an ending
                   Amaj7                           
So what's with the attention we keep on giving them
    E                                 
Why are we still spending so much time
             Amaj7                       
Dreading our lives instead of living them


[Chorus]
Emaj7                       Amaj7
Why do we try to divert the river
                                                        D  G
When the water is what will deliver us where we need to go ■


[Verse]
Cmaj7 B                 B7 
■     We may never know why
B              G#7              
Time is always in limited supply
          G#7              
But we'll live to regret it
      E     
If we get it
         Amaj7       Am
And then let it slip by
             Emaj7 
It can never rewind


[Chorus]
                    G#7              
Once you've lost it it's hard to find
         G#7              
Take the journey in stride
                     Amaj7         
When your plans have been sidelined
             C                           D  
Every hourly chime could begin something new
                          E                
So maybe it's time to let time pass through
Am  E                             
Not passing by but passing through
                   Am 
'til the well runs dry
D    E       Emaj7   E
Just passing through ■
