[Intro]
G Am Em D G D Dsus4
G Am Em D
[Verse 1]
G C G I was a dreamer when I was young D Em C Lyin' on the grass, and starin' at the sky G C G I never felt that time was moving on D Em I thought it would stay the same C For all my life D Em C Playin' games under Christmas lights D Em C When the world was warm and bright D Em C But that time just seemed to fly D In the blinking of an eye
[Interlude]
G Am Em D G D Dsus4
[Verse 2]
G C G I was a joker when I was at school D Em C Smokin' grass, laughing and gettin' high G C G I never cared about nothin' at all D Em I thought it would stay the same C For all my life D Em C Kissing girls under summer nights D Em C When the world was big and bright D Em C But that time just passed me by D G Gsus4 G In the blinking of an eye
[Bridge]
Am Em I left home at seventeen G D Tried to get into the music scene Am Em It wore me down like an old machine G D I learned how to work and forgot how to dream, oh
[Interlude]
G Am Em D G D Yea-ea-eah
G Am Em D
[Verse 3]
G C G I fell in love at twenty-one D Em C Down in the grass, getting lost in her wide eyes G C G Wouldn't have traded for anyone D Em I thought it would stay the same D For all my life Em C But I was just too young to know D Em C I let her down and let her go D Em C And that time taught me how to cry D In the blinking of an eye
[Interlude]
G Am Em D G D In the blinking of an eye
G Am Em D
[Verse 4]
G C G I hit the road at twenty-three D Em C Stood in the grass, singing songs for passers-by G C G Footloose and fancy-free D Em I thought it would stay the same D For all my life Em C Oh and practice taught me how to preach D Em C I touched a world, so out of reach D Em C And that time, it lived and died D G Gsus4 G In the blinking of an eye
[Bridge]
Am Em It all changed at twenty-nine G D My boat came in and the stars aligned Am Em I watched a simple song of mine G D Travel the world in the blink of an eye, yeah
[Interlude]
G Am Em D Yea-ea-eah
G Am Em D x3
[Outro]
G* C* G* Now I'm here at thirty-six D* Em* C* Down in the grass, tryin' to make sense of it all G* C* G* Maybe there's no easy fix D* Em* C* The highest highs come with the hardest falls D* Em* C* See the good times come and go D* Em* C* Like the people that you know D* Em* C* And all you can do is try D* G* For it's gone in the blink of an eye
