Passing Through by Mark Erelli
Passing Through
CAPO: 2nd fret
[Intro]
G C G D G
[Verse 1]
G C G
We are passing this world on to our kids
C Am
From the moment that they climb out of their cribs
D
And we try to teach them well and show them they are loved
C D
But in the end all we can do, is hope our best is good enough
G G7
For they'll witness how this life can be so beautiful and cruel
C C#dim7
We can't shelter them forever, but if we show them all the tools
D D#dim7 Em C
They might leave this place in a little better shape than me and you
G D G
We are only passing through
[Chorus]
G C
Passing through, passing through
G A7 D
We are only passing through
G C
Passing through, passing through
G D G
We are only passing through
[Verse 2]
G C G
And we've been watching this world from our living rooms
C Am
It's been near forty years since we walked on the moon
D
And this big blue ball keeps shrinking and I don't know if that's good
C D
But for better or for worse now, this whole world's our neighbourhood
G G7
There's no place left to run to where you can stay above the fray
C C#dim7
We all learn to need to get along and not just get our way
D D#dim7 Em C
Not only for each other but for our children's children too
G D G
We are only passing through
[Chorus]
G C
Passing through, passing through
G A7 D
We are only passing through
G C
Passing through, passing through
G D G
We are only passing through
[Verse 3]
G C G
I wonder sometimes what I will pass on
C Am
And how much can one voice do with just a song
D
Sometimes injustice and indifference are the only things I see
C D
But I refuse to let my hope become the latest casualty
G G7
So I'll sing of love and truth and try to practice all I preach
C C#dim7
And if I can't change the world, I'll change the world within my reach
D D#dim7 Em C
And what better place to start than here and now with me and you
G D G
We are only passing through
[Chorus]
G C
Passing through, passing through
G A7 D
We are only passing through
G C
Passing through, passing through
G D G
We are only passing through
[Outro]
G C G D G
