Go On by Jack Johnson
Go On
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Intro] E Bm F#m A (with bass riff)
[Verse]
E
In my rear view
Bm F#m
I watch you watching the twilight
A
Behind the telephone lines
E Bm
With nothing to prove, or to assume
F#m A
Just thinking that your thoughts are different than mine
[Verse]
E
In my rear view
Bm
I watch you
F#m A
And I gave you your life, would you give me mine
E
I see you slowly swim away
Bm
'Cause the light is leaving town
F#m
To a place that I can’t be
A
But there’s no apologies
[Chorus]
C#m
Just go on
E
Just go on
B
There’s still so many things
A
I wanna say to you
C#m
But go on
E
Just go on
B
We’re bound by blood that’s moving
A
From the moment that we start
C#m F#m C#m F#m
From the moment that we start
[Verse]
E
I see your perfect little lies
Bm
Watch the shadows of the clouds
F#m A
And the surface of the ocean out the window of a plane
E
I get nervous when I fly
Bm
I’m used to walking with my feet
F#m A
Turbulence is like a sigh that I can’t help but over think
[Verse]
E
What is the purpose of my life
Bm
If it doesn’t ever do
F#m
With learning to let it go
A
Live vicariously through
E
You could do the same
Bm
It’s the least you could do
F#m
Cause it’s a lonely little chain
A
If you don’t add to it
[Chorus]
C#m
Just go on
E
Just go on
B
There’s still so many things
A
I wanna say to you
C#m
But go on
E
Just go on
B
We’re bound by blood and love
A
From the moment that we start
C#m
Just go on
E
Just go on
B
There’s still so many things
A
I wanna say to you
C#m
Just go on
E
Just go on
B
We’re bound by blood that’s moving
A
From the moment that we start
C#m F#m C#m F#m
From the moment that we start

In my rear view
I watch you watching the twilight
Behind the telephone lines
With nothing to prove, or to assume
Just thinking that your thoughts are different than mine
In my rear view
I watch you
And I gave you your life, would you give me mine
I see you slowly swim away
'Cause the light is leaving town
To a place that I can't be
But there's no apologies
Just go on
Just go on
There's still so many things
I wanna say to you
Go on
Just go on
We're bound by blood that's moving
From the moment that we start
From the moment that we start
I see your perfect little lies
Watch the shadows of the clouds
And the surface of the ocean out the window of a plane
I get nervous when I fly
I'm used to walking with my feet
Turbulence is like a sigh that I can't help but over think
What is the purpose of my life
If it doesn't ever do
With learning to let it go
Live vicariously through
You could do the same
It's the least you could do
'Cause it's a lonely little chain
If you don't add to it
Go on
Just go on
There's still so many things
I wanna say to you
Go on
Just go on
We're bound by blood and love
From the moment that we start
Just go on
Just go on
There's still so many things
I wanna say to you
Just go on
Just go on
We're bound by blood that's moving
From the moment that we start
From the moment that we start

Lyrics
In my review
I watch you watching the twilight
Behind the telephone lines
With nothing to prove, or to assume
Just thinking if your thoughts are different than mine
In my review
I watch you
I give you your life, would you give me mine?
I see you slowly swim away
Cause the light is leaving town
To a place that I can’t be
There’s no apologies
Just go on
Just go on
There’s still so many things
I wanna to say to you
But go on
Just go on
We’re bound by blood that’s moving
The moment that we started
The moment that we started
I see perfect little lives
Watch the shadows of the clouds
And the surface of the ocean out the window of a plane
I get nervous when I fly
I’m used to walking with my feet
Turbulence is like a sigh that I can’t help but over think
What is the purpose of my life
If it doesn’t ever do
With learning to let go
Live *life recklessly* through
You can do the same
It’s the least you can do
Cause it’s a lonely little chain
If you don’t add to it
So go on
Just go on
There’s so many things
I wanna say to you
Go on
Just go on
We’re bound by blood and love
The moment that we started
Just go on
Just go on
There’s still so many things
I wanna say to you
Just go on
Just go on
Were bound by blood that moving
The moment that we started
The moment that we started
