VERSE 1:
GLooking down out of this little round window
On sEmilver wings at 20,000 feet
At lCakes and the streams and fields of green
I tCend to think the most pecuDliar things
GRibbons of highways, side roads, and byways
EmPeople going all ways, always in a hurry
Gotta gCet there, but just where, from up here
I'm not sure whCere it's all going... or what it all meDans
CHORUS:
But someEmtimes I think... it's just a sCimple thing
I clGose my eyes and I rD/F#ealize all I Creally needD  
Is the lEmove I have... and the Clove I have to give
GAnything else there is D– is insiCgnificant
DIn this tiny lifeEm  C  D  
VERSE 2:
GWheels hit the runways, Mondays run into EmMondays
Some days are better than some days
I cCan't see the sky, skyscraper's too high
3C0-second daydream at another red lDight
I'm bGack in my hometown, on roads that we rode down
EmThose sights and sounds are yesterdays now
There's deCadlines and stress lines, too much on my mind
I'm getCting it all... but what's it all forD

BRIDGE:
It's the lFove we make, it's the dreams we share
The friCends we find in our short time here
It's knFowing God's grace, the touch of a hand
HColding a baby, calling Mom and Dad
It's mFaking the most of the moments we have
And geCtting to live long enough to look back
On the yFears, the sweet tears of joy and laughter
That's Dall that really matters...

INTRO:

Em C D

VERSE 1:

Looking down out of this little round window

On silver wings at 20,000 feet

At lakes and the streams and fields of green

C D

I tend to think the most peculiar things

Ribbons of highways, side roads, and byways

People going all ways, always in a hurry

Gotta get there, but just where, from up here

C D

I'm not sure where it's all going... or what it all means

CHORUS:

Em C

But sometimes I think... it's just a simple thing

G D/F# C D

I close my eyes and I realize all I really need

Em C

Is the love I have... and the love I have to give

G D C

Anything else there is – is insignificant

D Em C D

In this tiny life

VERSE 2:

G Em

Wheels hit the runways, Mondays run into Mondays

Some days are better than some days

I can't see the sky, skyscraper's too high

C D

30-second daydream at another red light

I'm back in my hometown, on roads that we rode down

Those sights and sounds are yesterdays now

There's deadlines and stress lines, too much on my mind

C D

I'm getting it all... but what's it all for

CHORUS:

Em C

Sometimes I think... it's just a simple thing

G D/F# C D

I close my eyes and I realize all I really need

Em C

Is the love I have... and the love I have to give

G D C

Anything else there is – is insignificant

D G

In this tiny life

BRIDGE:

It's the love we make, it's the dreams we share

The friends we find in our short time here

It's knowing God's grace, the touch of a hand

Holding a baby, calling Mom and Dad

It's making the most of the moments we have

And getting to live long enough to look back

On the years, the sweet tears of joy and laughter

That's all that really matters...

INSTRUMENTAL:

Em C G D

Ohh yeah...

Em C G D

FINALE:

Em C

Sometimes I think... it's just a simple thing

G B C D

I close my eyes and I realize all I really need

Em D C

Is the love I have... and the love I have to give

G D C

Anything else there is – is insignificant

It doesn't matter... in this tiny life
