Capo: 1st fret
[Intro]
G Em7 Bm7 C
[Verse 1]
G Em7
When I turned twenty, I was overcome
Bm7 C
With the thought that I might not turn twenty one
G Em7
Death upon my doorstep, if I took just one more step
Bm7 C
There’d be nothing left of me except these songs
[Chorus]
G Em7
And my father told me “Noah, when you don’t know where you’re going
Bm7 C
Just stand still, soon enough you will
G Em7
And when all the hope and joy you feel turns into paranoia
Bm7 C
‘Cause it will, remember just stand still”
G Em7
Just stand still
Bm7 C
Just stand still, oh
[Verse 2]
G Em7
Six months sober, but nothing much has changed
Bm7 C
Life’s not over but I’m feeling twice the pain
G Em7
And I’m not bеtter, but I’m not quite the samе
Bm7 C
But it keeps coming, so I keep countin’ the days
[Chorus]
G Em7
And my grandfather told my father “It don’t get easier, just harder
Bm7 C
Yes it will, remember just stand still
G Em7
And when all the hope and joy you feel turns into paranoia
Bm7 C
‘Cause it will, remember just stand still”
G Em7
Just stand still
Bm7 C
Just stand still, yeah
[Bridge]
G
Just stand still and watch the sunset bleed
D/F# Bm7 C
With only dirt under your feet to feel, just stand still
G D/F# Bm7
Sixty seven thousand miles an hour around the sun and that is how it feels
C
Just stand still
G
In a universe that’s infinite
Em7 Bm7
Yet everything gets lost in it, you will
C
Just stand still
G Em7 Bm7
You’ll be right, you’ll be wrong, you’ll be fine ‘cause life goes on and on, until
C
Until
[Outro]
G Em7 Bm7 C
Just stand still (Just stand still, Just stand, Just stand still, Just stand still, still)
G Em7
Just stand still (Just stand still, Just stand, Just stand still, Just stand still)
Bm7 C
Just stand still (Still)
G Em7
Just stand still
Bm7
Oh, just stand still
C G
Oh, oh, just stand still
