Shapes with capo 1

Tap any chord in the song to see its shape. The boxes are drawn right-handed; Lefty flips them, which is how I actually play. Use − and + to move the whole song into a key that suits your voice, or tap Capo 1 to see the real chords with no capo.

Verse One

Rushed through life, always on the run

Chasing dreams, missing all the fun

Responsibilities came way too fast

Looking back, youth didn't last

Chorus One

Too fast, too soon, life flew by

Missed the moments, now I sigh

Trying to catch up with the past

But the memories fade too fast

Verse Two

Friends took their time, lived carefree

While I was lost in what I thought I'd be

Skipped the laughter, skipped the play

Missed out on those golden days

Chorus TwoSame as Chorus One. Tap to open.

Too fast, too soon, life flew by

Missed the moments, now I sigh

Trying to catch up with the past

But the memories fade too fast

Bridge

Slowing down, finding my way

Embracing youth, in a different way

Balancing dreams with moments to live

Taking back the time I can give

OutroSame as Chorus One. Tap to open.

Too fast, too soon, life flew by

Missed the moments, now I sigh

Trying to catch up with the past

But the memories fade too fast
