Bm           A          G
All that we needed was right,
Bm                 A         G
the threshold is breaking tonight

D                             A
Open to everything happy and sad,
                                    Em
seeing the good when it's all going bad
Seeing the sun when I can't really see,
                                      D
hoping the sun will at least look at me

Chorus:
D                             A
Focus on everything better today,
                                Em
all that I needed I never could say
Hold on to people, they're slipping away,
                                      Bm
hold on to this while it's slipping away

All that we needed tonight
Are people who love us and like
I know how it feels to need
Oh when we leave here, you'll see

Open to everything happy and sad
Seeing the good when it's all going bad
Seeing the sun when I can't really see
Hoping the sun will at least look at me

Chorus

    C  Em
So long
    C
So long

Open to everything happy and sad
Seeing the good when it's all going bad
Seeing the sun when I can't really see
Hoping the sun will at least look at me

Chorus:
Focus on everything better today
All that I needed I never could say
Hold on to people, they're slipping away
Hold on to this while it's slipping away

Hold on to people, they're slipping away,
Hold on to people, their slipping away
Hold on to people, they're slipping away,
Hold on to people, their slipping away - x3
