Song: Hanging By A Moment
Band: Lifehouse
Tabbed by: Eric Liddle
E-Mail: Enjoi83@shaw.ca

Tuning: 1/2 step down then drop D = Gb Db Ab Db.

Intro:
Gb|---------------------	|-(12)-| <-- (Play a harmonic)
Db|---------------------	|------| If you have a 24 fret bass 
Ab|---------------------	|------| play the 24th fret of the Gb.

Verse A: 
Gb|-------------------------------------| 
Db|---------0-0-0-0-4-4-4-4-------------| 
Ab|-------------------------5-5-5-5-----| 
Db|-0-0-0-0-----------------------------| x2
THEN
Gb|------------------------------------| 
Db|---------0-0-0-0--------------------| 
Ab|------------------------------------| 
Db|-0-0-0-0----------------------------| 
After the last Db go right into the verse.
I’m not 100% sure about that first part of the verse

Ab|---0-5-7-5---0---------5----------|

Gb|---------------------------------------------------| 
Db|---------------------------------------------------| 
Ab|---------------------------------------------------| 
Db|-55555555-77777777-2222222222222222----------------| x 2 

THEN
Gb|-------------------------------------------| 
Db|-------------------------------------------| 
Ab|-------------------------------------------| 
Db|-55555555-77777777-2-----------------------| Let the Eb ring out

This tab I had some trouble getting the first 
verse down, but just listen and you should hear it,
if not, then try playing something easier, like Blink182.

There is some stuff at the end I didn’t tab out, 
it’s kind of weird, figure it out your self.  
If you don’t like this tab, to bad, 
I honestly don’t care, it works for me and its 
better than any of the other ones that have been posted.

	why do people like you feel the right to rip up everyone else's beliefs? what is it to you if I or anyone else believes in God. Faith is an inherent characteristic of humanity.

	they must be crap if they sing about something that does not even exist (god), what a crock of shit, people who believe in god are ignorant.

	people can fall in love with God. and the closer you are to Him, the more you love him. and if you're "Starving for truth", how do you really find truth in a relationship with a girl/guy?

	This was OUR song, but now hes my ex. It still means the same to me though.I loved him soo much and still do. The lyrics describe the feeling so perfectly. There is no other emotion that could compare to being in love. Just being with that one person makes life feel like your haning by a moment .A moment that you never want to end.

	i dont care if this songs about god or a grilfriend or even a boyfriend for that matter,all i care about is the fact that this tune rocks!

No Picture Micke Lead Player	#6 by Micke Nordin at Jan 26, 2005 at 11:46 PM EST
	this song is about God. he says - im living for the only thing i know, which would be a pretty strong statement to make about a girl. "i'll take your invitation, you take all of me" im guessing thats stating his submission to God and letting God have full control over his life. the beginning part seems to describe the yearning he had for God, knowing that there was something better out there for him, rather than the life he was living.
