Tuning: DGDGAD

(I find this tuning to be better than standard tuning 
  for this song, but still, MWS does it in standard, 
  so you can play it in standard tuning with Capo 3 fret)

Capo 3 fret

Verse 1:
  G                                     D
It was a test we could all hope to pass
        Em9                      riff 1 
But none of us would want to take
  G                                     D
Faced with the choice to deny God and Live
      Em9                        riff 2
For her there was one choice to make

Chorus:
  G
This was her time
  D
This was her dance
  Em9
She lived every moment 
  Csus9
Left nothing to chance
  G
She swam in the sea
  D
Drank of the deep
  Em9
Embraced the mystery 
  Csus9
Of all she could be

This was her time

Intro


Verse 2:

Though you are mourning, and grieving your loss
Death died a long time ago
Swallowed in life, so her life carries on
Still it’s so hard to let go

Chorus 2:

This was her time
This was her dance
She lived every moment
Left nothing to chance
She swam in the sea
Drank of the deep
Embraced the mystery 
Of all she could be
What if tomorrow
What if today
Faced with the question
Oh, what would you say

Solo: G D Em9 Csus9 x4

Chorus 3:

This was your time
This was your dance
Live every moment
Leave nothing to chance
Swim in the sea
Drink of the deep
Fall on the Mercy
And hear yourself Praying
Won’t You Save Me

Repeat Chorus
