INTRO:  E

VERSE:
A                            E 
There's gonna be a change of season, mmm-hmmm
A                   E 
Indian summer look around and it's gone
A                      C#m 
Why you wanna save the best for last
   D                     B7 
We grow up so slowly and grow old so fast

A                      E 
We don't talk about forever  (mmmm)
A                            E 
We'll just catch it while we can (on the way, I hope)
A            C#m 
If I grab on to the moment
      D                B7 
Don't let it slip away out of my hand


CHORUS:
            E                       A 
(What about now) What about now, forget about tomorrow
         C#m                                 D 
It's too far away (too far away)  What about now  (mmm-hmmm)
            E                           A 
(What about now) Close your eyes, don't talk of yesterday
         F#m                               A                     E 
It's too far away, (too far away) It's too far away.  What about now.


VERSE:
A                     E 
I'm coming out of the shadows
A                       E 
I'm getting off of this one way street
A                  C#m 
Blue memories they just gather dust
D                           B7 
Leave them in the rain they turn into rust

A                            E 
And did you see the march to freedom, mmm-hmmm
A                 E 
Ever see Savannah moon (in the middle of the rain)
A                      C#m 
All the people walking in a line
D                B7 
Said to the man, is it my time?


CHORUS:
            E                       A 
(What about now) What about now, forget about tomorrow
         C#m                                 D 
It's too far away (too far away)  What about now  (mmm-hmmm)
            E                           A 
(What about now) Close your eyes, don't talk of yesterday
         F#m                               A                     E 
It's too far away, (too far away) It's too far away.  What about now.



BRIDGE:
B7     C#m           F#m 
In the walk of a lifetime
B7       C#m           F#m 
When you know it's the right time (bring it to me now)
A                     F#m 
I can't wait (I can't wait) until the ship comes in
A                     F#m 
I can't wait (I can't wait) starting all over again
    C#m         B7                A           C#m 
The errors of a wise man make the rules for a fool


PRE-OUTTRO CHORUS:
E                  A 
What about now, forget about tomorrow (forget about tomorrow) 
         C#m                               D 
It's too far away (too far away)  It's too far away  (mmm-hmmm)
E                     A 
What about now, don't talk of yesterday
         C#m                  D 
It's too far away,   It's too far away   (yehhh)

            E                        A 
(What about now)  What about now, forget about tomorrow
         C#m                               D 
It's too far away (too far away)  It's too far away  (wayyy)
            E                            A 
(What about now)  Close your eyes, don't talk of yesterday
          F#m                                  A 
It's too far away (It's too far away) It's too far away (Too far away)
        A                         E 
It's too far away      What about now



OUTTRO: 
               A            
It's all about now, right now
                E 
Don't break the spell
                A 
Don't break the spell   (Don't break the spell)
                E 
Don't break the spell   (Don't break the spell)
               A 
It's all about now, right now  (Now, right now)
               E 
Whaaa Whaaa Whaaa Whaaa
                  A 
You're here right now
               E 
It's all about now
