THE NEVER-ENDING PRESENT by GORD DOWNIE Tab by Eric Starrs ([email protected]) INTRO: D E7 G D E7 This waiting here for a bus is G D Almost better than its coming. E7 Every day it always does G D As I daydream or kick some dirt E7 Or throw a rock or check my watch G Gmaj7 Or catch my reflection. G D And it barely makes an impression E7 G On the never-ending present. This working from the inside out, This stepping to the easel, Is gonna run you into results, Then there's the materials: To see beyond your shoes Reflected in the polish and see some images Of truth beautifully demolished. And it barely makes an impression On the never-ending present. Steel yourself against the cold Or look for semi-precious shade. When the bus crests that hill, Love and hate are just the same. Watching as the money drops, Every day it always does. Maybe there's a song in here. No, and in fact, there never was. Nothing but a little expression From the never ending present. Just me doing my impression Of the never-ending present
