_ _ [E] To be taught [D] and to teach
_ [F#m] There's Veronica, she's biting her [E] lip
As she watches the waves [D] turn white at the [F#m] tip
And there's Veda, radiating with [E] joy
And luckily she still [D] can't stand the sight of a boy
And [F#m] lastly there's Dei, his hair dances in the [E] wind
And he's wondering [D] what love is
[F#m] And why it [E] has to
_ [D] _
_ _ [F#] And he can't understand
[C#] How everyone [A] goes on breathing when true love ends
His mother whispers [F#m] quietly, heaven's not a place that you go when you [C#m] die
It's that moment in [A] life when you actually [D] feel alive
[C#m] Live for the [F#m] moment
And take this advice, live by every [C#m] word
Love is just a [A] hoax, don't forget anything [D] that you have [C#m] heard
Live for the [F#m] moment now _
_ [E] _ _ [F#m] _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ And [F#m] there's three
Count [B] them, three
[D] Children growing on [F#m] the beach
They were eager to learn
To [E] be taught [D] and to _ teach
And [F#m] there's Veronica, she's licking her lips
[E] As she waits for her real [D] first passionate kiss
[F#m] And there's Veda, she can't admit her jealousy
[E] Of her sister Veronica [D] and how she's so pretty
And [F#m] lastly there's Dei, still sitting on the [E] dock
He ponders his [D] life and he skips his [F#m] rocks
And he wonders when his father will [E] return
[D] But he's not coming back
[E] And he can't [F#] understand
[F#m] How everyone goes on breathing when [A] true love ends
His mother whispers [F#m] quietly, heaven's not a place that you go when you [C#m] die
It's that moment in life when you actually [D] feel alive
_ [C#m] Live for the [F#m] moment
And take this advice, live by every [C#m] word
Love is just a hoax, don't forget everything [D] that you have heard
[C#m] _ _ [F#m] _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ [F#m] _ _ _ [F#] _ _
_ [D] _ _ [F#m] _ _ _
_ And there's three _
Count them, [E] three
[D] Children missing from [F#m] the beach
They were eager to learn
To [E] be taught and [D] to teach
But [F#m] the sad thing is that they never lived past the [E] age of fifteen
Due [D] to neglect [F#m] from their mother
Who was bedridden by her [E] ex-lover, their [D] father
_ _ [F#m] She didn't even notice or pay much attention
[E] As the tide came in and [D] swept her three into the ocean
[F#m] Now all her advice, it [F#] seems _ [D]
useless
[C#] _ [F#m] Well heaven's not a place that you go when you die
[C#m] It's that moment in life when [A] you touch her and you [D] feel alive
[C#] So live for the moment
[F#m] And take this advice, live by every word
[C#] Love's completely real, don't [A] forget anything that [D] you have heard
[C#m] Live for the moment [F#m] now
