Juan Gutierrez - The Graduation Song

[D]Hoping for a new beginning
To take[Bm] me away from my surroundings
So I [G]can finally say [Bm]goodbye [A]
[D]Wondering what'll become of us
[Bm]When we are all old and gray
[G]And this time that we've spent together
Was well w[Bm]orth our w[A]ait
[D]Think of the fun that we had
[Bm]Not caring until the next morning
It f[G]eels so good to go through life
With your e[Bm]yes half op[A]en

|Chorus|

[D]We are all one an[Bm]d the same
[G]We are lovers, and brothers, and sisters
And [Bm]most of all frie[A]nds

|Verse 2|

[D]These years have passed us by so fast
It [Bm]seems like we never got the chance
To reali[G]ze how good life really was
And [Bm]let the moment l[A]ast
[D]And it feels like it was only yesterday
[Bm]When we walked into this place
[G]And said I can't wait till I [Bm]get out of h[A]ere
[D]And now as we walk down this aisle
[Bm]With four years all rolled up in a scroll, you can't help but thi[G]nk
Hey, W[Bm]here did the time [A]go

|Chorus|

[D]We are all one an[Bm]d the same
[G]We are lovers, and brothers, and sisters
And [Bm]most of all frie[A]nds
[Bm]Hold on to your mem[G]ories
[Bm]Hold on to those little th[G]ings
[B]And I hope you receive as mu[G]ch as you get
[D]Cause when you die they're the only thi[A]ngs
[D]That you can take to your [G]grave

|Bridge|

[G]    [F#]     [E]      These are the days of your life
[G]    [F#]     [E]      And don't let them pass you by

Cause [G]you [F#]never[E] know when you might take your last breath

And so take a deep one tonight

[D] [Bm] [G] [Bm] [A]

|Verse 3|

[D]Good friends we had along the way
[Bm]And good friends that didn't make it to where we stand today
[G]But we all know that they're l[Bm]ooking down on [A]us
[D]And even though their lives were cut sho[Bm]rt
We still remember the little thing that made us [G]laugh about them
And do you remember when and where d[Bm]id you meet t[A]hem?

[D]We are all one and the sa[Bm]me
[G]We are lovers, and brothers, and sisters
And most[Bm] of all frie[A]nds
[Bm]Hold on to your me[G]mories
[Bm]Hold on to those li[G]ttle things
[Bm]And I hope you receive as muc[G]h as you get
[D]Cause when you die they're the only thi[A]ngs
[D]That you can take to your g[D]rave

[D]-[Bm]-[G]-[Bm]-[A] x2

|Outro|

[D]And as we approach this final day
[Bm]Where we all will go our separate ways
[G]So go hug and kiss your friends
[Bm]And say g[A]oodbye to them[D]
