This song is about enjoying the moment. Taking a step back from the pressures and stress of life sometimes and just enjoying time with the people close to you.

This is my third entry in to GrumpyCoyoteTunes "Bring the Song Challenge". Details about the challenge are here:

This challenge is a great way to inspire songwriting! I know I've only written three, but that's three more than I would have written without it.

Lyrics and chords are below:

[C] It's [Cmaj7] early Monday [F] morning
[C] I'd [Cmaj7] rather be in [F] bed
[C] I [Cmaj7] stumble to the [F] bus stop
[C] No [Cmaj7] coffee in my [F] head
The [G] pouring rain it soaks right through
The [F] bus comes late and crammed
A [G] half hour trip can take 2 hours
When [F] all the traffics jammed

[C] [Cmaj7] Stop the world with [F] me
[C] [Cmaj7] Hold that thought just [F] feel
[C] daily life can [G] get you down
And [Dm] turn your smile in[G] to a frown
Sit [C] back, [G] relax for just a [F] while
And [G7] stop the world with [C] me [Cmaj7 - F]

[C] There's [Cmaj7] tension in the [F] office
[C] Phones [Cmaj7] ringing in my [F] ear
[C] Im [Cmaj7] patient voices [F] calling
[C] Their [Cmaj7] stress so loud and [F] clear
My [G] voicemail flashes wildly
As I [F] log into my mail
[G] 85 new messages
I [F] sigh as I exhale

[C] [Cmaj7] Stop the world with [F] me
[C] [Cmaj7] Hold that thought just [F] feel
[C] daily life can [G] get you down
And [Dm] turn your smile in[G] to a frown
Sit [C] back, [G] relax for just a [F] while
And [G7] stop the world with [C] me [Cmaj7 - F]

[G] Technology's supposed to make our life much easier
So [F] why are we more busy than we've ever been before?
We're [G] pulled in all directions as we try to do what's right
Some [F] times we need to step back and see the good things in our life  

[C] [Cmaj7] Stop the world with [F] me
[C] [Cmaj7] Hold that thought just [F] feel
[C] daily life can [G] get you down
And [Dm] turn your smile in[G] to a frown
Sit [C] back, [G] relax for just a [F] while
And [G7] stop the world with [C] me [Cmaj7 - F]
And [G7] stop the world with [C] me [Cmaj7 - F]
And [G7] stop the world with [C] me (less info)
