Present Tense
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Intro]
D Em G 4x
[Verse]
D Em G
Yes, I'm here
D Em G
And yes, as per, I feel weird
D Em G
A terrifying worry in the back of my head
D Em G
And it gets worse when you are near
D Em G
It's a subtle kind of tension (subtle kind of tension)
D Em G
A permanent suspension (permanent suspension)
D Em G
Every muscle in my body primed to snap
D Em G
With nervous apprehension
Em
Regretting the choices that we made
[Chorus]
D Em G
You're either living six months into the future
D Em G
Or looking ten years into the past
D
You're searching for answers
Em G
In tough circumstances
D Em G
But I just need a moment that lasts
Give me something that lasts
[Instrumental]
D Em G 2x
[Verse]
D Em G
You lost your lucky purple lighter
D Em G
On the Megabus to Brighton
D Em G
But on the way you read a zine that made you think
D Em G
You'd be a good Anarcho writer
D Em G
But not even Voltairine de Cleyre
D Em G
Could successfully get you there
D Em G
Without a list of aspirations gushing out of your pen
D Em G
As you stewed in that sticky chair
Em
Regretting the choices that we made
[Chorus]
D Em G
You're either living six months into the future
D Em G
Or looking ten years into the past
D
You're searching for answers
Em G
In tough circumstances
D Em G
But I just need a moment that lasts
Give me something that lasts
[Instrumental]
D Em G 4x
Em
You're wishing your life away
G
Or longing for bygone days
D Em G
Oh would you give me a fucking break?
D Em G
Cause they won't come back
D Em G
So give me something that lasts
D Em G
So give me something that lasts
D Em G D Em
You're searching for answers in tough circumstances but I just need something that lasts
G D
So give me something that lasts
