[Verse]
      G                       G
In another time and place, Grandma would kiss my face

     D
Wish I could go back there again

      G                                G
I'd climb up in my grandpa's lap, I'd lay down and take a nap

      D
That old man and me were best friends

         Bm
And one day I turned around

             A
Leaves are fallin', fallin' down

        G
Those fields were bare and brown and they were gone
[Chorus]
A      G       D           A      G
Long gone like bluebonnets in the spring

  G                   Bm        A  D A
We're only here for a little while

     D             A     G
It's beautiful and bittersweet

 G                  Bm       A  D A
So make the most of every mile

 A        Bm
So pack light and love heavy

         A                                  D
Give it all your heart and soul, so in the end

     A                Bm
You won't regret one thing

          G
Life is like bluebonnets in the spring.

[Verse]
   G                               G
There's so much I can't explain, Such as gravity and pain

  D
Still I remain, blindfolded and full of faith

     G                            G
I kissed my angel girl goodbye, Still can't help but wonder why

 D
But I believe I'll see her again someday

      Bm
So, hold 'em tender, hold 'em tight

              A
Pray every mornin', day, and night

                G
That God will help you raise them right

                             A
And don't you blink, don't blink
[Chorus]
            D           A      G
'Cause like bluebonnets in the spring

  G                   Bm         A  D A
We're only here for a little while

     D             A     G
It's beautiful and bittersweet

 G                  Bm       A  D A
So make the most of every mile

 A        Bm
So pack light and love heavy

         A                                  D
Give it all your heart and soul, so in the end

      A               Bm
You won't regret one thing

A         G
Life is like bluebonnets in the spring.
[Solo] G G D D G G D D [Bridge]
         Bm
Life can be filled full of sorrow

            A
Time is something you can't borrow

          G
So love like there's no tomorrow

          G
Because today could the day
[Chorus]
                           G
Like bluebonnets in the spring

  G                   Bm         A  D A
We're only here for a little while

     D             A     G
It's beautiful and bittersweet

So make the most of every mile

 A        Bm
So pack light and love heavy

         A                                  D
Give it all your heart and soul, so in the end

      A               Bm
You won't regret one thing

A         G       A                Bm  A
Life is like bluebonnets in the spring.

         G       D                G
Life is like bluebonnets in the spring
