F          G                C
1.You wanna        know       where we go from here 2.So you're asking

your   fears

F              G               Am
1.So many             roads but      none that seem  clear 2.Cuz time 
moves so   fast   and the chances seem so few 3.I won't promise the 
moon but I     promise to be   here

F                  G                 Am
1.Is what we    have enough  to    last a whole life through 2.Is it 
too     much to think that we could have it  all 3.And what if 
together    it gets  better every   -- day

F                   G
1.Who knows, baby who     knows
