One Foot In The Present Day

	  		

Intro: 

Bb     C           Dm 
For so long I have waited 
                  Bb - C - Dm 
For this sense of urgency 
       Bb              C 
For as long as I can remember 
     Dm        C 
I've always been the type 
   Bb        C         F 
Of person to just give in 



verse 1: 
          Dm - C      Gm 
I want to run just as fast I came in 
          Dm 
I want to have the chance 
   C 
To flee the scene 
    Bb 
And to find peace 
            Dm             C 
Oh, it’s so hard to find relief 
          Gm 
For this excess sensitivity 
       Dm 
To the crimes that have been 
  C               Bb          C 
Committed against others, not only me 



 

Dm 
How long must I wait 
      Bb 
Until I’m at peace again? 
    Dm 
And how long must I wait 
      Bb   C 
Until I am whole again? 
    Dm 
And how long must I wait 
      Bb 
Until I am at peace again? 
    Dm 
And how long must I wait 
   Bb       C 
To see your face again? 




Bridge: 
         Dm 
I've got one foot in the present day 

And one foot in the grave 
Dm 
One foot in the present day 

And one foot in the grave 
F 
One foot in the present day 

And one foot in the grave 



verse 2: 
               Bb 
But, it’s your grace that gives us 
    F                      Bb 
The second chances that we don't deserve 
            Gm 
And that we take for granted 
     C         Bb 
But, it’s your grace that gives us 
    F                      Bb 
The second chances that we don't deserve 
            Gm 
And that we take for granted 



 

Dm 
And how long must I wait 
      Bb 
Until I’m at peace again? 
    Dm 
And how long must I wait 
    Bb   C 
Til I am whole again? 
    Dm 
And how long must I wait 
      Bb 
Until I’m at peace again? 
    Dm 
And how long must I wait 



Outro: 
   Bb       C     Bb - Dm 
To see your face again? 
                  Bb - Dm       
To see your face again 
                  Bb - Dm  
To see your face again 
                  Bb - Dm  
To see your face again 
            Dm    Dm 
To see your face, again
