Passing Through (Can’t the Future Just Wait)

Verse 1:
                       E
Cant the future just wait
                    Ab7
Cant the deadlines come fashionably late
                   Dbm
I could push every goal back

Take control back
             A            Am                            E
If they'd rolled back the rate at which time starts to fly
                 Ab7
Never landing or standing by
          Abm7b5
Never taking a break
                 AM7
Never making me retry
               Cmaj7                       D
We "Nickle and Dime" every "Quarter to Two"
                           EM7
But maybe its time to let time pass-through

Verse 2:
                 E
If the future is bright
                       Ab7
It doesn't shine with that "end of the tunnel" light
                        Dbm
More like a dear in the headlights, sudden red lights,
           A                  Am            Asus2
Or "you're deadlights" as the angler fish bite
          E
It's not fair
                      Ab7
The past is clear, but it's clear back there
                     Abm7b5
What's ahead, no one knows
                    AM7
But it's closing, in we swear
                Cmaj7                      D
Still not in my prime, I have so much to do
                          EM7
But maybe its time to let time pass-through

Bridge:
E                                   Ab7
I can’t just rewrite decisions when life gets strange
                   Dbm
Should I go with my gut

On which door I should shut? I’m unsure;
         A
I’d keep exploring this rut
        Am                     Dbmaj7
But what good is time without change?

Instrumental: Db / B / Gbm / A , Ab

      E
Move on
             A
Cause things never last
           E
Just move on
         A
Cause it goes too fast, and the past has passed
         E
So move on

No one likes an ending
   A
So what’s with the attention we keep on giving them?
E                                 A
Why are we still spending so much time dreading our lives, instead of living them?
E                           A
Why do we try to divert the river
                              Gbm
When the water is what will deliver us
                  D   G   Cmaj7   B
Where we need to go?

Verse 3:
                  E
We may never know why
                 Ab7
Time is always in limited supply
                    Dbm
But we’ll live to regret it

If we get it
         A            Am
And then let it slip by
       Asus2    E
It can never rewind
                         Ab7
Once you’ve lost it, it’s hard to find;
                    Abm7b5
Take the journey in stride
                          AM7
When your plans have been sidelined
              Cmaj7                        D
Every hourly chime could begin something new
                          E
So maybe it’s time to let time pass through

Outro:
    C
Not passing by
    E
But passing through
         C
Till the well runs dry
     E
Just passing through
