Notes*:
  -I cover this song in standard tuning
  but Jason Mraz plays in drop D I'll
  show both ways of playing it.
  -He plays differently live, like a lot.
  he changes lyrics and the chord changes
  for the bridge are pretty different from
  the recording. So I want to state that is
  a tab from the Album Version.
  -Jason plays it first fret, in my band we
  do no capo because it makes it SO much easier
  to sing.
  -In the bridge im having a real hard time
  deciding whether the second chord is a G
  or a Dadd4/G, so i just put down how we
  play it which is G. But if anyone has any
  input please leave a comment!

93 million miles from the Sun, people get ready get ready,
               Dadd4/G
'cause here it comes it's a light, a beautiful light,
Em                               D
over the horizon in to your eyes Oh, my my how beautiful,
                                     Dadd4/G
oh my beautiful mother She told me, "Son in life you're gonna go far,
    Em                                       Asus4 A
and if you do it right you'll love where you are
       Dadd4/G               Em            A              D
Just know, that wherever you go, you can always come back home"

Dadd4/G - Em
[Verse 2]
D
240 thousand miles from the Moon, you've come a long way to belong here,
              Dadd4/G
To share this view of the night, a glorious night,
Em                                     D
over the horizon is another bright sky Oh, my my how beautiful,
                                       Dadd4/G
oh my irrefutable father, He told me, "Son sometimes it may seem dark,
        Em                                  Asus4 A          Dadd4/G
but the absence of the light is a necessary part.     Just know,
             Em             A                       D      D
you're never alone, you can always   come back home"

Ohh,ohh,ohh  Ohh,ohh,ohh  You can always come back, back
[Bridge]
F#m
Every road is a slippery slope
G
There is always a hand you can hold on to.
F#m
Looking deeper through the telescope
G                    F#m              A7 A#dim.
You can see that the home's inside of you.
     G                       Em                     Dadd4/G
Just know, that wherever you go, oh no you're never alone,
         A              D         D
you can always get back home
[Chorus]
        Dadd4/G         Em            D           D
Ohh,ohh,ohh     Ohh,ohh,ohh   Ohh,ohh,ohh
        Dadd4/G         Em            D           D
Ohh,ohh,ohh     Ohh,ohh,ohh   Ohh,ohh,ohh
[Outro]
