Every Minute

[Verse 1]

     Bb2        C           Am7      Bb
I am long on staying. I am slow to leave,
                     Bbmaj7  C     Fsus/A   F/A   Bb2
Especially when it comes to you my friend.
                          F/C
You have taught me to slow down,
 C    F2/A           Bb2
And to   prop up my feet.
                      F/C   C   Fsus/A  Gm9
It's the fine art of being who I am.


[Verse 2]

                     F2/A                     F/Bb
And I can't figure out    why you want me around.
                             C7sus              C  Gm7
I'm not the smartest person I    have ever met.
                          F2/A
But somehow that doesn't matter,
                   Bbmaj7                       Csus  C
No it really never     mattered to you at all.

[Chrous]

           Dm        F2/A
And at the risk of wearing out my welcome.
        Dm          Gm9     Csus   C
At the risk of self-discovery,
         Dm       F/A    Bb
I'll take every moment,
            C7               Dm7
And every minute that you give me.

[Verse 3]

    Bb2        C           Am7      Bb
And I can think of a time when families all lived together,
                    Bbmaj7  C     Fsus/A   F/A   Bb2
Four generations in one house.
                          F/C
And the table was filled with good food,
C    F2/A           Bb2
And friends and neighbors.
                     F/C   C   Fsus/A  Gm9
That's not how we like it now.


[Verse 4]

                 F2/A                     F/Bb
'Cause if you sit at home you're a loser,
                    C7sus              C  Gm7
Couldn't you find anything better to do?
                                 F2/A
Well, no, I couldn't think of one thing
                              Bbmaj7                       Csus  C

I would rather waste my time on than

Sitting here with you.


[Chorus]

           Dm        F2/A
And at the risk of wearing out my welcome.
        Dm          Gm9     Csus   C
At the risk of self-discovery,
         Dm       F/A    Bb
I'll take every moment,
            C7               Dm7
And every minute that you give me.


[Verse 5]

Bb2        C           Am7      Bb
And I wish all the people I love the most
                  Bbmaj7  C     Fsus/A   F/A   Bb2
Could gather in one place,
                                F/C
And know each other and love each other well.
C    F2/A           Bb2
And I wish we could all go camping,
            F/C   C   Fsus/A  Gm9
And lay beneath the stars,

And have nothing to do and stories to tell.


[Verse 6]

             F2/A                     F/Bb
We'd sit around the campfire
                  C7sus              C  Gm7
And we'd make each other laugh,
                      F2/A
Remembering when...
                       Bbmaj7                       Csus  C
And you're the first one I'm inviting.

Always know that you're invited, my friend.


[Chrous]

           Dm        F2/A
And at the risk of wearing out my welcome.
        Dm          Gm9     Csus   C
At the risk of self-discovery,
         Dm       F/A    Bb
I'll take every moment,
            C7               Dm7
And every minute that you give me.

Every moment, and every minute that you give me.
Every moment, and every minute that you give me.
Every minute...
