{Intro}
F#5 B F#5 A# F#5 G# F#5 A#
F#5 B F#5 A# F#5 G# F#5 F#
 
{Verse 1}
F#5 B F#5 A# F#5 G# F#5 A#
When walking down this road I realised that we never,
 
F#5 B F#5 A# F#5 G# F#5 F#
Like footprints that were washed away off the sand,
 
F#5 B F#5 A# F#5 G# F#5 A#
And as I take this picture to hold a moment,
 
F#5 B F#5 A# F#5 G# F#5 F#
It's gotta last in my heart, and be clear in my mind.
 
{Bridge}
B C#
Cause there isn't any warning telling us to stop,
E B
Where to go or what we got, so...
 
{Chorus}
F# B C# F#
Let's drive 'til we're outta gas,
 
F# B C# F#
Walk for miles, as long as you promise me this; that we can,
 
F# B C# D#m
Live in a tent, right by the sea,
D#m B C# F#m
For I'll be happy doing those things.
 
F#5 B F#5 A# F#5 G# F#5 A#
 
F#5 B F#5 A# F#5 G# F#5 F#
I would be happy doing those things`
 
{Verse 2}
F#5 B F#5 A# F#5 G# F#5 A#
So as we talk all night just sitting by the fire,
 
F#5 B F#5 A# F#5 G# F#5 F#
Discussing lifetime hurts and finding out who we are;
 
F#5 B F#5 A# F#5 G# F#5 A#
And every night there would be talk for many hours,
 
F#5 B F#5 A# F#5 G# F#5 F#
So at last, in our heart, and it clears up our minds.
 
{Bridge}
B C#
Cause there isn't any warning telling us to stop,
E B
Where to go or what we got, so...
 
{Chorus} (x2)
 
{Outro}
F#5 B F#5 A# F#5 G# F#5 A#
F#5 B F#5 A# F#5 G# C# F#
