Intro:
G Em7
D Em7 x3
D Em7x3
D7 Gmaj7
G Am Em D
We barely remember who or what came before
this precious moment, We are choosing to be here
Vamp on Em
right now. Hold on, stay inside
G Am Em
This holy reality, this holy experience.
Em G Am G //Hit each chord just once except the last G (twice)
Choosing to be here in
D Em7 D Em7 D Em7 D Em7
This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am not alone in
This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal
Em
All this pain is an illusion.
Em D G (several times)
Around (2:30)
Interlude:
Bm7 Em7
Em7 Fmaj7 Em7 D7 Cmaj7 (last two on para-bol)
Twirling round with this familiar parabol.
Spinning, weaving round each new experience.
Recognize this as a holy gift and celebrate this
D Em G
chance to be alive and breathing.
(Around 3:30)
Em D Em D(octave higher)
There's a riff here which you can try by playing Em7 D7 Em7 G
Vamp (muted chords) (Around 4:06)
Em7 Am D7
Vamp on Em
This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality.
Embrace this moment. Remember. we are eternal.
All this pain is an illusion.
Em7 D7 Em7 Cmaj7
Ends on harmonics (G B E)
There are a million rhythmic variations in the song and though the chords
work, the rhythm is something youre going to have to figure out on your own.
As to some of the chord voicings, I play the main riff D at the 5th fret
and hammer on to Em7 at the 7th fret.
