Passing Through Chords by Catie Curtis

_ [D] _ _ [A] _ _ [D] _ We are passing [G] this world on [D] to our kids
From [G] the day [D] when they climb [Em] from their cribs _
[A] We'll try to teach them well
Show them that they're loved
[D] But in the end all we can do
Is hope [A] our best was good enough
[D] Cause they'll witness how this life can be so
Beautiful and cruel
[G] We can't shelter them forever
But if [E] we show them all the tools
[A] They might leave this [F#] world in a little [Bm] better shape
Than [D] me and you
We [A] are only [D] passing through _
Passing through
_ _ [G] _ _ _
_ [D] We [E] are only [A] passing through _
_ [D] Passing through
_ _ [G] _ _ _
_ [D] We are only passing through
We are watching [G] this world from [D] our living rooms
For [G] forty [D] years since we [Em] walked on the moon _
[A] Well this big blue ball is shrinking
I don't know if that's [D] good but for better or for worse
Now [A] this whole world is our neighborhood
[D] And there is no place left to run to
To stay above the fray
[G] We better learn to get [E] along not just get our way
[A] Not only [F#] for each other [Bm] but our children's children [G] too
[D] We [B] are only [D] passing through _
Passing through

[D] We [E] are only [A] passing through
[E] _
_ [D] Passing _ _ [G] through

[D] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
And I wonder [A] sometimes what will I [D] pass on? _
[G] How much can [D] one voice do with [Em] just a song?
Sometimes [A] injustice and indifference
Are all that we see.
[G] But I refuse to let my hope [A] become the latest casualty.
[D] So I'll sing out love and truth and try to practice what I preach.
[G] If I can't change the world, I'll [E] change the world within my reach.
[A] What better [A#] place to start than [Bm] here and now with me and you?
