[Verse]
D G
I’ve been thinking, all my friends are growing up,
D
And as the lights go down, we sit and talk
G
About busy lives and who we’ll be, and how High School really wasn’t all that bad.
[Pre-chorus]
Bm G D
Now he’s in between jobs and she plans to move away
D
But I’ve got my dreams in a book of things
Bm
That I swore I’d do someday.
G D
Am I moving forward? Am I doing all I can?
D
Cause I’m stuck between all Your plans for me, and my hometown scenery.
[Chorus]
D G
I may not look like much, but I know who I want to be,
Bm A
I live two separate lives, but both are what I want of me,
D G
If comfort’s how we gauge the rate of progress in our lives,
Bm A
I’ll watch the people pass me by, as I’m standing on the interstate line.
D
[Verse]
D G
I’ve been drifting, relationships that came and went,
D
Remembering all those times I said too much,
G
In hopes to prove who I was, still I pick the pieces up with eyes held shut.
[Pre-chorus]
Bm G D
Shouldn’t change feel right? Have I made some grave mistake?
D
I know these things can come at once
Bm
And sometimes it’s hard to take.
G D
Am I moving forward? Am I doing all I can?
D
Cause I’m stuck between all Your plans for me, and my hometown scenery.
[Chorus]
D G
I may not look like much, but I know who I want to be,
Bm A
I live two separate lives, but both are what I want of me,
D G
If comfort’s how we gauge the rate of progress in our lives,
Bm A
I’ll watch the people pass me by, as I’m standing on the interstate line.

[Ending]
X8
D G
You said “son, know who you are is not who you’re going to be.
Bm A
The road is long, but we’ll get there. Put your cares on Me.”
(Sung at the same time from X3-7)
D G
I can’t remember how long my life has been this song:
Bm A
“The world keeps moving faster, yet I keep right along”.
(Sung at the same time on X8)
D G
For all these years I’ve wondered, when this makes sense will we
Bm A
See what I’ve needed so long, was you to sing with me
