       with piano aswell. The riff can be figured out by listening
       to the song.
     - Some chords are better bar-chored at times depending on how
       you're playing the song.
     - The roman numerals above/under a chord represent when a certain
       lick should be played.
     - Some licks are actually piano licks.
     - Minor licks have been omitted to encourage improvisation.

Verse
Asus2
 I spent the morning at an old friend's grave
                                     E       Bsus2
Flowers and Amazing Grace, he was a good man
Asus2
  He spent his whole life spinnin' his wheels

Never knowin' how the real thing feels
  E                                Bsus2        Bsus
He never took a chance or took the time to dance
       Abm          Asus2        Bsus2       Bsus
And I stood there thinking as I said goodbye
Abm             Asus2            Bsus
  Today is the first day of the rest of my life


Chorus
           F#m                   E
I'm gonna stop lookin' back and start movin' on
     Asus2
And learn how to face my fears
          F#m               E
Love with all of my heart, make my mark
   Bsus
I wanna leave something here                                     ii)
   C#m                  Bsus                     Asus2           F#sus4
Go out on a ledge, with out any net, That's what I'm gonna be about
                 Asus2             Bsus
Yeah I wanna be runnin', When the sand runs out

 'Cause people do it everyday,

Promise themselves they're gonna change,

That was then and this is now
       E                    Bsus2 (or Bsus)  v)
I'm a new man, yeah, I'm a brand new man
Abm               Asus2                  Bsus2
  And when they carve my stone they'll write these words
Abm                 Asus2              Bsus
  "Here lies a man who lived life for all that its worth"

Play Chorus then E
