miranda4747's version wasn't bad but I love these guys and figured I'd give it a shot myself.
Capo on 2
(vocals, no guitar)
we were always on our way
rolling up our sleeves
ever moving forwards
G
in the traps
C G D
where we lived our simple lives
G C
kept our blinders on
Em D
eyes to the horizon
F#7add4
i know,
C
i’m no doctor but i know
Em D G
you can’t live in the past
C G Em D G
but the only way to go is to go back
C G D
and return to who we were
G C
before we disappeared
Em D
into the thick of big ideas
G
and now
C G D
we can see the sweeping view
G C
waiting out the storm
Em D
stuck under the awning
F#7add4
i know,
C
i’m no doctor but i know
Em D G
you can’t live in the past
C G Em D G
but the only way to go is to go back
[MANDOLIN BREAK!]
G - C - C - D - G
C Em
into everglades
G
greener yesterday
D
skip the stones away
C Em
go back to the start
G
photos in the dark
D
bloom before they fade
G [Hold]
[Single Strums]
C G D
so we hold to who we are
D G C
even into the yard
C Em D
beyond our furthest day dreams
G
to a world
C G D
full of strange and towering skies
G C
the chance to choose in time
Em D
to set out on our own way
F#7add4
i know,

i’m no doctor but i know
D5 C
no doctor but i know
G D G
you can’t live in the past
