this song basicly talks about your last day hence the title, if Today Was Your Last Day

(Bm)               (D)            (A)
My best friend gave me the best advice 
                                          (Bm)
He said each day's a gift and not a given right 
                (D)                        (A)
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind 
                                      (Bm)
And try to take the path less traveled by 
                   (D)                   (A)
That first step you take is the longest stride 

(A)                   (Bm)
If today was your last day 
                     (D)
and tomorrow was too late 
                              (A)
Could you say goodbye to yesterday? 
                                    (Bm)
Would you live each moment like your last? 
                         (D)
Leave old pictures in the past 
                     (A)
Donate every dime you have? 
                      (Bm)   (D)   (A)
If today was your last day 

(Bm)        (D)                     (A)
Against the grain should be a way of life 
                                          (Bm)
What's worth the prize is always worth the fight 
             (D)                            (A)
Every second counts 'cause there's no second try 
                                 (Bm)
So live like you'll never live it twice 
              (D)                   (A)
Don't take the free ride in your own life 

(A)                   (Bm)
If today was your last day 
                     (D)
and tomorrow was too late 
                              (A)
Could you say goodbye to yesterday? 
                                    (Bm)
Would you live each moment like your last? 
                         (D)
Leave old pictures in the past 
                     (A)
Donate every dime you have?
                                    (Bm)
Would you call old friends you never see? 
            (D)
Reminisce of memories 
                      (A)
Would you forgive your enemies? 
                                       (Bm)
Would you find that one you're dreamin' of? 
                         (D)
Swear up and down to God above 
                        (A)
That you finally fall in love 
                      (E)
If today was your last day

If today was your last day 
                   (A)                (E)
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart? 
                       (D)                   (A)
You know it's never too late to shoot for the stars 
             (E)
Regardless of who you are 
                 (D)
So do whatever it takes 
                  (A)           (E)
'Cause you can't rewind a moment in this life 
                         (D)
Let nothin' stand in your way 
                  (A)            (E) 
Cause the hands of time are never on your side 

(E)                   (Bm)   
If today was your last day

Far Away

                      G
From underneath the trees
              D
We watch the sky
              Am          E
Confusin' stars for satalights
              G                  D

But hear we are, where hear tonight

If everyone loved and nobody lied

every time I do it makes me laugh,
                          G       
How did our eyes get so red, 
                               D
and what the hell is on Joey's head?

And this is where I grew up, 
                                   C
I think the present owner fixed it up,
D                             G 
I never knew we ever went without,
                                      D
the second floor is high for sneakin' out.                                          

D                            A
And this is where I went to school, 
                                      C
most of the time had better things to do,
                                G                 
Criminal record says I broke in twice,
                              D
I must have done half a dozen times.
D                     A   
I wonder if it's too late, 
                                C
should I go back and try to graduate,
                                   G
Life's better now than it was back then, 
                                C
if I was them I wouldn't let me in...
            G
Oh Oh Oh... Oh God I!

Every memory of lookin out the back door,
          A                                    C   
I had the photo album spread out on my bedroom floor, 

It's hard to say it, time to say it

Good-bye, Good-bye.

Remember the old arcade? 
                               C
Blew every dollar that we ever made.
                          G       
The Cops hated us hangin' out, 
                                     D
they say somebody went and burned it down.
                          A           
We use to listen to the radio 
                                    C
and sing along with every song we'd know.

                                     G
We said someday we'd find out how it feels
                                       D
to sing to more than just the steering wheel.
D                       A   
Kim's the first girl I kissed. 
                               C
I was so nervous that I nearly missed.
                                 G
She's had a couple of kids since then. 
                                   C
I haven't seen her since god knows when.

You can't erase, You can't replace it.

I miss it now. I can't believe it.

So hard to stay. To hard to leave it.

I know the one thing that would never change...

Intro:   Dm   F   C   G


Verse:          Dm     F                C                     G
Well I know the feeling, of finding yourself stuck out on the ledge
                   Dm     F                 C                        G
And there ain't no healing, from cutting yourself with the jagged edge
                Dm                  F                  C                    
I'm telling you that, its never that bad, take it from someone whose been 
             G
where you're at
                Dm                   F              C               G
Laid out on the floor, and you're not sure, you can take this anymore


Chorus:         Dm                F           C                   G
So just give it one more try to a lullaby and turn this up on the radio
           Dm              F               C                        G
If you can hear me now I'm reaching out to let you know that you're not alone
   Dm                  F                    C                    G
And you can't tell I'm scared as hell cos I can't get you on the telephone
        Dm           F                 C                         G
So just close your eyes
                        Dm           F            C             G
Well honey here comes a lullaby
              Dm            F           C            G
Your very own lullaby
 

Verse:             Dm       F           C                         G
Well please let me take you, out of the darkness and into the light
             Dm       F                     C                           G
Cause I have faith in you, that you're gonna make it through another night
               Dm                 F               C                                  
Stop thinking about, the easy way out, there's no need to go and blow the 
G
candle out
                   Dm                   F             C               G
Because you're not done, you're far too young, and the best is yet to come


Chorus:         Dm                F           C                   G

If you can hear me now I'm reaching out to let you know that you're not alone
   Dm                  F                    C                    G

        Dm           F                 C                         G
So just close your eyes
                        Dm           F            C             G
Well honey here comes a lullaby
              Dm            F           C            G
Your very own lullaby

Bridge:                                                        C
                               G                               F
Well everybody's hit the bottom, and everybody's been forgotten when 
                                C
everybody's tired of being alone                        
                                G                               F
yeah everybody's been abandoned, and left a little empty handed
                                      G
so if you're out there barely hanging on

Chorus:         Dm                F           C                   G

        Dm           F                 C                         G

                        Dm           F            C             G

Un consejo, una lección te doy
No me molestes si en mi descanso estoy

Verse 1:
G                                    Em        G        Em
There was a girl who lived in London town.
G                                 Em                   G      Em
The scenes and sounds, they would only bring her down
C                                   D
She had polkadots and rubies in her dreams,
C                   D
French fantasies on cinema screens...
        C             G/B    Am     G
And she knew from the finish to the start
C      G/B      Am   G
It was bound to fall apart
C         G/B     Am   Em
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.
Em                                D
Wouldn't it be sweet if she could die from a broken heart?

G     Em      G      Em

Verse 2: (the same chords)
There was a boy who lived inside his head.
He couldn't face the world, so he turned his back instead.
He couldn't see in front of his eyes;
His fantasies of outlaws had him hypnotised...

And he knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                        F
Wouldn't it be sweet if he could die from a broken heart?

   C              G           F
Behold his golden wings
       C              G         F
And behold his bronze bow.
                 C             G         F
Can you hear his silver arrows sing?
       C               G     
As his gaylied favours glow.

(then go back to the normal verse bit)

There was a boy and girl who fell in love:
They both were in love with the stars and sky above,
Cinderella, cigarettes and scenes from the past
Were chasing them too fast for this love to ever last...

And they knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                         F
Wouldn't it be sweet if they could die from a broken heart? 

C   G    F    C    G

Repeat F  C  G until the end. End on G.

          F                         C
There are words we're too afraid to say
                                        Am
The things that I thought would last forever
    F              G
Are changing every day

          Am
There's a hunger can't be satisfied
        F                       C
And the streets are filled with rage
C                       Am
It's time to dig deep inside ourselves
F                       G
And face the life we've made

Am
It's gonna take two of us
C                           Am
Ijust can't do it all on my own
F				  C
I see the day gettin' brighter
G                    F
Hold me a little bit tighter

C                      Am      F
Out of the darkness in hand in hand
     Am               F        G
Baby together we will make our stand
C                             Am      F
Reach out and touch me we can win somehow
       Am              F                G
I know there's nothing that can stop us now
F              Am                 G   C
Oh, baby, come with me out of the darkness
