Is coming into play,

Is here now today

Give me this moment - this momentus moment

This is the moment when all I've done

This is the moment, this is the hour
          |Em7/A                  |Dmaj7
When I can open up tomorrow like a flow'r
          |Bm                    |F#m7
And put my hand to - ev'rything I planned to;
  |Em7             A        |Em7         |A7sus4
Fulfill my grand design. See all my stars align
           |D     Em7/D    |D
This is the moment my final test
Em7/D  |D                 Bm             |Gmaj7
Destiny beckoned, I never reckoned second best
G           |Em7
I won't look down
A/G       |F#m7
I must not fall
Bm         |Em7     D/F#        |Em7       A7  |D
This is the moment; the sweetest moment of them all

This is the moment; Damn all the odds
Ab/Eb      |Eb              Cm           |Ab
This day or never, I sit forever with the Gods
           |Fm7
When I look back
B/Ab    |Gm7
I will recall
Cm        |Fm7
Moment for moment
Eb/G        |Fm7
This was the moment

How to practise this song

1
Put your capo on fret 2
Clamp the capo on before you start — otherwise the shapes won't sound like the original.
2
Practise the barre chord Ab
Ab is a barre chord. Lay your index finger flat across all strings and press firmly; practise it on its own until every string rings clearly before you use it in the song.
Open
3
Practise the change: A7 ↔ A
Play each chord for 4 beats, then 2, then 1 — with the metronome at 60-70 bpm. Only push the tempo once the change is clean and on time.

Great first song
Focus on clean chords — let every string ring. Speed comes by itself once the shapes are right.
