E          D  C#m    A
Seen the skyline of New York City
C#m   D   E
Fireflies in Tennessee
 E                D          C#m A
Sipped a little shine from a paper sack that'll
C#m        D           E
Knock the horns off a Cadillac

I must've sat on a dozen islands
Watched the sun sink into the sea
Been there, done that, got the T-shirt and hat
But my favorite place to be is

Chorus:
E  D C#m A
Here     and now
A       D         E
Nowhere else in this world enough
E            D        C#m     A
You and me, ain’t it good to be alive?
A                 D           E

With a girl from Mexico
Thought I found a true love in Malibu, but
That water was a little too cold

Yeah, I left a few tears in the rearview
One or two that were hard to forget
Why you think we call the present the present?
'Cause there ain't no better gift than

Chorus

   E
A lotta people dreaming 'bout one-day-some-days
D
Waiting just around the bend (Waiting just
around the bend)
A
I used to be one wonderin' when they'd come
     A
But now I'm livin' in (But now I'm livin' in)
E  D C#m A
Here     and now
D C#m E
       Yeah, I'm livin' in the
