I would hold on for one more heartbeat

"Today, today, today, today"

As strange as it seems

Before you and I were washed up
D/E A Em7(addA) On this alien shore

As strange as that seems
[Chorus]

Though the hour grew later and later

          D/F#      G             D     Dsus4  D  E
Still I'd hold on for one more heartbeat

While my friends around me were calling

      Em7
"Today, today, today, today"

     G                Em7  A
Today the world seems brighter

 G                          Em7  A
Light and bright and right somehow

C                             Fmaj7
I could not have held on tighter

 C#m7               D                Em9
Waiting for the past to come to pass, no no

I've seen myself through your eyes

This you should know

Wading the stream

That flows in between you and I
Once in a dream [Chorus]
E              D/F#        G        A    D  A  E
And though the hour grows later and later

I would hold on for one more heartbeat

          D/F#        G           A
While my friends around me were calling

      Em7                      A
"Today, today, today, today, today"
