G             Gsus4       G           Gsus4
Lime-coloured leaves are bending and blowing
         A#            C   A#  C
In the springtime of life
 G             Gsus4        G          Gsus4
Lime-coloured leaves are blending and knowing
      A#           C        B        C
And I bet I'll survive (survival is hardly
      D      Dsus4  D
the poiiint)
            C          Bm
Oh, you're my kind of daydream
      Am       G
I'll foster ambitions
       A#        C
Break down inhibitions
          A#           C
'Til realisations take over
     B         C         D        Dsus4  D
And wishes convert into kisses galore
                G     Gsus4 G Gsus4
And I'll dream no more

Chorus:
        G Gsus4    G
I'll be so in the moment
             Gsus4   G  Gsus4
Putting your hand in mine (so in the moment)
G        Gsus4        G     Gsus4
 Finding gold in the silver mine (so in the moment)
G      Gsus4        G  Gsus4
Not a thorn on the vine (so in the moment)
    G            Gsus4
Of roses in the summertime

         C             Bm
When the old times are fading fast
     Am             G
The pleasures will come at last
      B        C     D   Dsus4  D
I'll take you for my own
                 G Gsus4 G Gsus4 G Gsus4 G Gsus4
And I won't let go

Lime-coloured leaves still bending and blowing
With a walk in the park
Arm-and-arm with my true love, the roses have faded
Bad choice of remark
Complacency strikes at the heart

Now we're balancing upon the curb,
please don't say another word
Way down below, there's still sharks in the road
I want to jump in like Paul McCartney and Wings
'I feel like letting go'

Chorus:
I'll be so in the moment, begging your forgiveness
So in the moment, then saying I couldn't care less
So in the moment, my darling, don't get upset
So in the moment, you know I'm only joking
It's a long way to yesterday
No matter what I do or say
It keeps getting further away

           C                Bm
Well, now, all the things I meant to say
    Am              G
(I think I'll say them anyway)
    A#            C
The seasons, the fallen leaves
     A#                C
(The curve of time and all it weaves)
     Bm               C
Now flood through my mind
           D
I want to make you my wife
D                   G  Gsus4 G Gsus4
For the rest of my life

I am so in the moment
So in the moment
So in the moment
So in the moment
So in the moment

Wrestling with our love's demise,
we're out of the mire
(So in the moment)
Making up for lost time, floating dreams of desire
(So in the moment)
Got our medications and the bus is for hire
(So in the moment)
Say 'I do' and say 'I will jump into the fire'
Don't you let me down again
