[Verse 1]
G
Before we get to far ahead of ourselves
G
Go back to when we couldn't reach the top shelf
Cadd9
Look at this pictures up and down the stairs
G
I was there
G
This one's a memory I'll never forget
G
Me and your ...
Cadd9
Just look at the sunlight bouncing off her hair
G
I was there
[Pre-Chorus]
D
You can tell a lot from a snapshot
Cadd9
But there's nothing like living it
[Chorus]
D Em7 Cadd9
Life is the stories we tell that you know so well
G D
Looking back over your shoulder
Cadd9
When we get older
D Em7 Cadd9
Life is the moments we make, the seconds we take
G D
Before you know it, it'll be over
Cadd9
Wish we could have a little longer
Em7
Don't blink, don't rush it
D Cadd9
Make it more, everywhere
G
Say I was there
[Verse 2]
G
Watching old movies way way back
G
There's our old Mustang and there's my dad
Cadd9
He looks so young, chasing me everywhere
G
I was there
G
This one's of me driving away
G
Waving goodbye on graduation day
Cadd9
Well, I was so excited and little bit scared
G
But I was there
[Pre-Chorus]
D
You can live or grin through your memories
Cadd9
But there's nothing like living it
[Chorus]
D Em7 Cadd9
Life is the stories we tell that you know so well
G D
Looking back over your shoulder
Cadd9
When we get older
D Em7 Cadd9
Life is the moments we make, the seconds we take
G D
Before you know it, it'll be over
Cadd9
Wish we could have a little longer
Em7
Don't blink, don't rush it
D Cadd9
Make it more, everywhere
[Bridge]
Am D
I was there, not worrying about tomorrow
Am G
I'll be there along, every single day
[Interlude]

Looking back over your shoulder
Cadd9
We're gonna get older

Life is the moments we make, the seconds we take
G D
Before you know it, it'll be over

Wish we could have a little longer

Don't blink, don't rush it
D Cadd9
Make it more, everywhere
[Outro]
Em7
And if you live it and love it
D Cadd9
You can get yourself anywhere
G
Say I was there, I was there
