Song: The Breath You Take
Tabbed by: philboy93
Tuning: Standard
Intro.: Bm G Bm A
Verse 1
He l[Bm]ooks up from second base, Dad's up in the sta[G]nds
He s[Bm]aw the hit, the run, the slide, there ain't no bigger fa[G]n
In the [Em]parkin' lot after the game
He said "[F#m]Dad I thought you had a plane to catch?"[G]
He smiled and said "Yeah son, I did[A]
Chorus
But life's not the [D]breath you take, the breathin?[Em] in and out
That gets you [Bm]through the day, ain't what it's a[A]ll about
You just might[G] miss the point tryin' to[Bm] win the race
Life's not the [Em]breaths you take
But the [A]moments that take your breath away[D] [Em] [A]
Verse 2
Fast fo[Bm]rward fifteen years and a thousand miles a[G]way
Boy's bu[Bm]ilt a life, he's got a wife and a baby due today[G]
He[Em] hears a voice sayin' "I made it, son"
Says "I [F#m]told you, Dad, you didn't have to [G]come"
He smiles and says "Yeah, I know you did[A]
Chorus
But life's not the b[D]reath you take, the breathin?[Em] in and out
That gets you [Bm]through the day, ain't what it's a[A]ll about
You just might [G]miss the point tryin' to [Bm]win the race
Life's not the b[Em]reaths you take
But the [A]moments that take your breath away[G]
Bridge
Just like it took my[Bm] breath when she was born
Just like it [Em]took my breath away when Dad [A]took his last that morn
Chorus
But life's not the b[D]reath you take, the breathin?[Em] in and out
That gets you[Bm] through the day, ain't what it's a[A]ll about
You just might[G] miss the point if you don?t s[Bm]low down the pace
Life's not the b[Em]reaths you take
But the[A] moments that take your breath away
Outro: G Bm A D
