This Is My Now

NOTE: Jordin and Blake's versions are two very different ones. 
Blake's (the one i'm tabbing) is in the key of C, while Jordin's 
is in the key of F#. They have different ranges so they changed 
the key for the band. Anyway, i'm more of a blake fan (sorry) so 
this is his cover of the song first. I might do Jordin's soon, but 
i don't know all of jordin's just yet. This tab might have some 
errors (it probably has a lot of errors), so correct me if I am 
wrong. oh and another thing, play along with the song to get the 
idea of it, because it is relatively new. Check out this song if 
you haven't. it is amazing and an awesome finale song. I'm kinda 
bummed blake didnt win but jordin was also good. The bridge i was 
almost clueless about and so was the ending part of each Chorus.
 There were no other tabs on any site with this song, so i made the 
first. Now if people copy me, the original site i had it on was 
E-CHORDS as of may 31st, 5:11 P.M. This is the first tab for this 
song online (i think) so don't copy. ENJOY! sorry for any mistakes. 
GO BLAKE :) and jordin.

CHORDS w/ Lyrics 

VERSE: 

C            G                      Am  
There was a time when I packed my dreams away. 
              F                  G 
Living in a shell, hiding from myself. 


C            G               Am 
There was a time when I was so afraid. 
                           F 
I thought I'd reached the end, 

But baby that was then 
              Am              G 
I am made of more than my yesterdays. 

Chorus: 


            C                            G      
This is my now, and I am breathing in the moment. 
            Am                            F 
As I look around I can't believe the love I see. 
    Am (not sure)    Em (not sure)             F 
My fears behind me, gone are the shadows and doubts 
          G 
That was then, this is my now. 

REPEAT VERSE AND Chorus CHORDS 

BRIDGE: (not sure about these chords) 

Am                                  Em 
And I have the courage like never before, yeah. 
Am                                       F 
I've settled for less now I'm ready for more, 
     G 
Ready for more. 

Repeat Chorus Time (play soft and strum once for ever chord). Then jump into this: 
(C - from last Chorus ending) G 
    and I'm breathing in the moment 
         Am                               F 
I look around I can't believe the love I see. 
     Am (not sure)   Em (not sure)             F 
My fears behind me, gone are the shadows and doubts. 
          G                (play ending riff) 
That was then, this is my now. 
            C 
This is my now. 

ENDING RIFF: similar to intro, play on second to last "this is my now" on "now" you play this riff: 

high e|--8--3--8--3--7--3--7--3--8--1--8--1--8| <-- end on that 8th fret of the high e string, or play a C major chord 
if you want to play by chords. 

ENDING NOTE: if a chord says "(not sure)", or the bridge says "(not sure)", play with the chord(s) {and bridge}. 
If it doesnt seem right how i put it, change it and play it your way. 

Also, to all you blake fans... BLAKE WILL DO SO WELL IN THE FUTURE! Woo Hoo
