This Is Not A Test Cifras

Standard Tuning
 
[Intro]
D Dmaj7 Em A7
 
[Verse 1]
    D                Dmaj7             Em      A7
For those of you who tried, but didn't make it,
D                 Dmaj7          Em     A7
Settle down- it's never what you think.
    D              Dmaj7           D7        G
The summit doesn't differ from the big, dark valley,
        Em                             A7      A
And the valley doesn't differ from the kitchen sink.
 
[Verse 2]
    D                Dmaj7            Em         A7
For those of you who thought you'd be forgotten,
    D                        Dmaj7              Em      A7
The friends you've made will try their best, to make it so.
D                Dmaj7           D7      G
Think of all the beauty that you left behind you.
        Em                               A7     A
You can take it if you want it, and then let it go.
 
[Chorus]
            Em    A
And this is not a test,
            Em    A
No, this is not a test.
Em             A          D      D7
Taking numbers never made sense, anyways.
            Em    A
No, this is not a test,
            Em    A
No, this is not a test.
               Em              A           D
'Cause you can have it, if you want it, anyways.

[Verse 3]
    D          Dmaj7             Em           A7
For those of us who try to keep remembering,
    D        Dmaj7        Em      A7
Try to do our better than our best.
    D        Dmaj7          D7          G
Think of all the children in the drifts of snow.
       Em                       A7       A
Winners never quit, but winters never rest.
 
[Chorus] (x2)
            Em    A
And this is not a test,
            Em    A
No, this is not a test.
Em             A          D      D7
Taking numbers never made sense, anyways.
            Em    A
No, this is not a test,
            Em    A
No, this is not a test.
               Em              A           D
'Cause you can have it, if you want it, anyways.
