| Gm/F  Eb  Cm7  F7 |

[Verse 1]
Bb                Eb        F
Before the winter chill has gone
Gm         F      Bb
The springtime rivers rise
Eb      F
Before the setting sun has disappeared
Eb      F      Bb
The moon is rising high.

[Pre-Chorus]
Ab             Gm Eb
And time waits for no man
Gb               Bb
Seasons come and go
Gm7              Cm7
In the midst of an ever-changing world
Eb               Fsus4
This one thing I know.

[Chorus]
Bb   F     Gm7
You've got to live every moment
Eb        F        Bb
As though it was your last
F                 Cm7
Before the thief of always
Bbm7     Eb               F
Steals tomorrow from your grasp
Bb       F         Gm7
Before the chance to know His love
Eb                 Gm
Has somehow passed you by
Eb          Bb
Let your heart reach out
Eb          Bb
Right here, right now
Cm7     Fsus4 F    Bb|Gb
For the Lord to touch your life.

[Verse 2]
F                   Eb
Before the trees have shed
F
Their autumn gold
Eb        F      Bb
To leave the barest bark
Eb
The frost beneath our feet
F
Will sparkle bright
Eb       F         Bb
Like crystals under the sky

[Pre-Chorus]
Ab             Gm Eb
And time waits for no man
Gb               Bb
Seasons come and go
Gm7              Cm7
In the midst of an ever-changing world
Eb               Fsus4
This one thing I know.

[Chorus]
Bb   F     Gm7
You've got to live every moment
Eb        F        Bb
As though it was your last
F                 Cm7
Before the thief of always
Bbm7     Eb               F
Steals tomorrow from your grasp
Bb       F         Gm7
Before the chance to know His love
Eb                 Gm
Has somehow passed you by
Eb          Bb
Let your heart reach out
Eb          Bb
Right here, right now
Cm7     Fsus4 F    Bb|Gb
For the Lord to touch your life.

Ebm7            Db
Don't ever doubt that God
Ab      Gb
Can lift us high
Ebm7             Cm7
Allow the flame of Heaven
Fsus4  F7
To be our guide

[Chorus]
Bb   F     Gm7
You've got to live every moment

As though it was your last
