Tom: E
E A E A E A B
[Verse 1]
E A E A
Now she's thinking of the red soil
E A
And the mango trees
E A E A
In her mind she's still splashing 'round
E A
Down on Cable Beach
E A E A
And her eyes, they are as rich and faraway
E A
As the sunset there
E A E A
She's not taking in a word I say
B E A B
Well I might as well be talking to myself
[Chorus]
E B A B
Take it in, take it all in
E A
Now is a time that
B
Will not come again
E B A B
Take it in, take it all in
E A
This is a day that
B
Is here for the living
[Verse 2]
E
So we step outside
A E A
Into this Melbourne weather
E
With a shock it
A E A
Brings her back to where she is
E A E A
Now we've made this place our home
E A E A
Surrounded by unknown
B A
We're gonna stick it out
E A B
Until it comes together
[Chorus]
E B A B
Take it in, take it all in
E A
Now is a time that
B
Will not come again
E B A B
Take it in, take it all in
E A
This is a day that
B
Is here for the living
[Bridge]
A C#m B
We're only living for a day
C#m C#m7
To come or some days gone by
E A
Never taking in each moment
C#m A
Never knowing what you had
B
Until it passed you by
B
And it'll pass you by
[Chorus]
E B A B
Take it in, take it all in
E A
Now is a time that
B
Will not come again
E B A B
Take it in, take it all in
E A
This is a day that
B
Is here for the living
[Outro]
E B A B
Take it in, take it all in
E A
Now is a time that
B
Will not come again
E B A B
Take it in, take it all in
E A
This is a day that
B
Is here for the living
