[Intro] Ab [Verse]
Ab
  Sometimes he lets that boss get

Ab
In his head

Ab
  He can't see passed that mountain

Ab
  Of deadlines on his desk

Ab
  Five o'clock, he's the last one

Ab
Out of the gate

    Ab
And he gets cut off, flipped off, ticked off

Ab
  Out on the interstate

       Db
And he wonders why this world won't

           Eb
Leave him alone

       Db
Til he hears that little voice holler
Daddy's home [Chorus]
            Bbm
Things that matter

            Ab
Things that don't
[Verse 2]
      Ab
She's held on to that grudge

        Ab
All her life

    Ab
And thirty years of anger

          Ab
Since her dad walked out that night

    Ab
She thinks of all the moments

          Ab
That he's missed

        Ab
All the birthdays, ballets, first dates

         Ab
It seems too much to forget

     Db
She gets that call that said he

          Eb
Don't have  long

    Db
She walks in, he starts crying
The past is gone [Chorus]
            Bbm
Things that matter

            Ab
Things that don't
[Bridge]
Fm Eb        Db
  Time ain't on our side

Fm            Eb
  Don't wanna leave this world

    Db                         Ebsus4  Eb  Db
With  why didn't I, why didn't I

                 Eb  Db
Yeah, why didn't I
[Verse 3]
    Ab
Sometimes I take on this world

     Ab
By myself

         Ab
Thinking I got all the answers

           Ab
Don't need anybody's help

             Db
When God was right there waiting

            Eb
For me all along

   Db
To fall down on my knees
Surrender all [Chorus]
            Bbm                 Ab
Things that matter, things that don't

  Bbm             Db            Ab
Things that matter, things that don't
[Outro] Ab Ab Ab Ab Bbm Db Ab Ab Ab Ab Bbm Db Ab Ab Ab Ab Bbm Db Ab Ab Ab
