Catie Curtis - Passing through

We are ^Dpassing this ^Gworld on to our ^Dkids From the ^Gday when they ^D/F#climb from their ^Emcribs We'll ^Atry and teach them well, show them that they're loved But in the ^Gend all we can do is hope our ^Abest was good enough They'll ^Dwitness how this life can be so ^D7beautiful and cruel We can't ^Gshelter them forever but if we show them all the ^Etools They might ^Aleave this world in a ^A#dim7little better ^Bmshape than me and ^Gyou ^DWe are ^Aonly passing ^Dthrough

We are ^Dwatching this ^Gworld from our ^Dliving rooms Near ^Gforty years since ^D/F#we walked on the ^Emmoon This ^Abig blue ball is shrinking and I don't know if that's good But for ^Gbetter or for worse now this whole ^Aworld is our neighborhood And there is ^Dno place left to run to,^D7 to stay above the fray ^G We better learn to get along not ^Ejust to get our way Not ^Aonly for each ^A#dim7other but our ^Bmchildren's children ^Gtoo ^DWe are ^Aonly passing ^Dthrough

And I ^Dwonder sometimes ^Gwhat will I pass ^Don How ^Gmuch can one voice ^D/F#do with just a ^Emsong Sometimes in^Ajustice and indifference are all that I see But I re^Gfuse to let my hope become the ^Alatest casualty So I'll ^Dsing of love and truth and try to ^D7practice what I preach If ^GI can't change the world, I'll change the ^Eworld within my reach What ^Abetter place to ^A#dim7start than here and ^Bmnow with me and ^Gyou ^DWe are ^Aonly passing ^Dthrough
