This series of chords were taken from 'The Walk' video where Steven

was doing a recording in Abbey Road Studios. I roughly figured it 

out, so it should sound right. I change certain parts tho' to suite 

my playing taste. Anyway...ENJOY!!

Intro :  [ Gsus1 (2 bars)   Csus1 (2 bars) ]   -- 2x



   Gsus1

Today I watched in silence as people passed me by, 

      Csus1         

And I strained to see if there was something hidden in their eyes; 

         Am                 Bmsus       Csus

But they all looked back at me as if to say 

               Gsus  Csus

Life just goes on. 

  

    Gsus1     

The old familiar story told in different ways, 

         Csus1

Make the most of your own journey from the cradle to the grave; 

Am                  Bmsus             Csus

Dream your dreams tomorrow because today 

             Gsus1   Dsus  Gsus

Life must go on.  

  



CHORUS: 

            Csus         Dsus                 Emsus

But there’s more to this life than living and dying, 

               Csus              C/Emsus     D            

More than just trying to make it through the day; 

Csus         Dsus                  Emsus          D

More to this life, more than these eyes alone can see, 

            Csus                          Gsus   Csus(to v3,4)

And there’s more than this life alone can be. 

  



Tonight he lies in silence staring into space, 

And looks for ways to make tomorrow better than today, 

But in the morning light it looks the same; 

Life just goes on. 

  

He takes care of his family, he takes care of his work, 

And every Sunday morning he takes his place at the church; 

And somehow he still feels a need to search, 

But life just goes on. 

  

(chorus) 

  

   Am                   Bmsus

So where do we start to find every part 

   F                       Csus

Of what makes this life complete; 

   Am                   Bmsus

If we turn our eyes to Jesus we’ll find 

F                        Csus                     D

Life’s true beginning is there at the cross where He died. 

        Emsus Csus  Dsus

He died to    bring us . . . 



(chorus)
