Some moments that I've had

Some moments of pleasure
Ab Db/F Gb Db/F

I think about us lying

Lying on a beach somewhere

Diving off a rock, into another moment
Db/Ab Gb Db/F
Ab Db/F Gb
The case of George the Wipe
Db/F Ab
Oh God I can't stop laughing
Db/F Gb
This sense of humour of mine
Db/F Ab Db/F
It isn't funny at all
Gb
Oh but we sit up all night
Db/F Absus4
Talking about it
Ab Fb
Just being alive
Gb Absus4 Ab
It can really hurt
Fb
These moments given
Gb Ab Db/F Gb Db/F
Are a gift from time
Ab Db/Ab
On a balcony in New York
Gb/Ab Db/Ab
It's just started to snow
Ab Db/Ab
He meets us at the lift
Gbm
Like Douglas Fairbanks
Db/F Ab
Waving his walking stick
Db/F Gb Db
But he isn't well at all
Gb Db/F
The buildings of New York
Ab7sus4 Db/F Gb
Look just like mountains through the snow
N.C. Fb
Just being alive
Gb Absus4 Ab
It can really hurt

These moments given

Are a gift from time

Just let us try

To give these moments back

To those we love

To those who will survive

And I can hear my mother saying
