CAPO 1
(INTRO) 4x
G D A
D
If we never flew
We would never fall
F#m
If the world was ours
We would have it all
Em
But the life we live
Isn't so simplistic
Bm A
You just don't get what you want
D
So we take what comes and we keep on going
F#m
Leaning on each other's shoulders
Em
Then we turn around
Bm A
And see we've come so far somehow
(CHORUS)
G
We're halfway there
We're Looking good now
D A
Nothing's gonna get in the way
G
We're halfway there
Looking back now
D A
I never thought that I'd ever say
G D A
We're Halfway there
G D A
We're Halfway there
D
When the chips are down
Back against the wall
F#m
Got no more to give
Cause we gave it all
Em
seems like going the distance is unrealistic
Bm A
But we're too far from the start
D
So we take what comes and we keep on going
F#m
Leaning on each other's shoulders
Em
Then we turn around
Bm A
And see we've come so far somehow
(CHORUS)
(BRIDGE)
Bm A G
How you ever gonna reach the stars
D A
If you never get off the ground
Bm D G
And you'll always be where you are
F#m A
If you let life knock you down
D F#m Em Bm A
(CHORUS)
G D A
(We're halfway there)
G
We're halfway there
