This version is very close to the official tab; I made several slight corrections and revisions. [Intro] Em G C Am Em G C D [Verse 1]
Em              G
Sunday mornin', preacher said

 C                   Am
"Life's a mist; it's just a breath

      Em        G
We're only here for a little while"

C D   Em               G
   He talked about his daddy's grave

        C        Am
It read 1910 to '98

        Em                 G                 C D
But the years between were just a little line
[Pre-Chorus]
Em        G                  C      Am
   Got me wonderin' what I'm chasin'

Em             G             C     D
   Don't want another minute wasted
[Chorus]
          Em              G
There's a day we're born, day we pass

C                   Am
In between, there's just a dash

Em                 G
What on Earth am I doin'?

C                  D
What on Earth am I doin'?

      Em              G
Yeah, I got time, but time goes fast

C                   Am
  Yeah, that line's all I have

Em                 G
What on Earth am I doin'?

C                  D
What on Earth am I doin'?
[Verse 2]
        Em                 G
I could take this life and live it well

        C                 Am
I could keep on livin' it for myself

Em                          G
What's He gonna say when He calls me up?

C D    Em              G
   Was I just words or was I love?

    C                    Am
Did I love great or just good enough?

Em             G                C D
I just hope He says, "Well done"
[Pre-Chorus]
Em           G                  C      Am
   I keep on wonderin' what I'm chasin'

Em             G             C     D
   Don't want another minute wasted
[Chorus]
          Em              G
There's a day we're born, day we pass

C                   Am
In between, there's just a dash

Em                 G
What on Earth am I doin'?

C                  D
What on Earth am I doin'?

      Em              G
Yeah, I got time, but time goes fast

C                  Am
 Yeah, that line's all I have

Em                 G
What on Earth am I doin'?

C                  D
What on Earth am I doin'?
[Bridge]
            Em                      G
'Cause real life's in the trenches, not from the stands

   C                      Am
In our lofty benches with manicured hands

         Em                   G
I want a dash that's dirty, a life fully spent

C                                  D
Weathered and scarred from all the life that I lived

    Em               G
The times that we go out of our way

         C                   Am
To paint beautiful blue over somebody's gray

        Em            G
When we stopped and defended injustice

   C                     D
Or sanded the heart of a friend that got rusted

Em                        G
I don't know my number or year that I'll pass

     C                      Am
From this cold world to the Kingdom that lasts

      Em                       G
But carpe diem, it's worth it; to live it, not blur it

   C                          D
Or years could fly by and you still ain't met purpose
[Chorus]
          Em              G
There's a day we're born, day we pass

C                   Am
In between, there's just a dash

Em                 G
What on Earth am I doin'?

C                  D
What on Earth am I doin'?

      Em              G
Yeah, I got time, but time goes fast

C                  Am
 Yeah, that line's all I have

Em                 G
What on Earth am I doin'?

C                  D
What on Earth am I doin'?
[Outro]
Em             G
  Life's short; but a vapor

C Am
    What you gonna do?

Em                 G
What on Earth am I doin'?

C                  D
What on Earth am I doin'?

Em G C Am Em                 G
          What on Earth am I doin'?

C                  D
What on Earth am I doin'?
