Chords

[Intro] D G D G [Verse]
    D
I remember when I couldn't wait

   G                             D
To drive a car and stay out late,  uh huh

  D
I watched my body stretch and groan

    G                          D
And wonder why it took so long,  uh huh

  A                                     G
I wished that I could grab the hands of time

                        D                       G
And turn into a man and leave that little boy behind

       D
By the time that I'd turned twenty

  A                            D
I longed for that simple state of mind
[Verse]
    D
The teachers turned to bosses

        G                          D
And the money barely paid the rent,  uh huh

D
The only ones that had it made

         G                               D
Were the older dudes that paid their way,  uh huh

  A                                     G
I wished that I could grab the hands of time

                        D                      G
And turn a ten year plan  into an overnight success

       D
By the time that I'd turned thirty

  A                            D
I realized how little time was left
[Chorus]
                    G
The seasons of your life

A                          D
   Don't let them pass you by

                   G
For as the years unwind

A                       D
  You only get one at a time

G       A                    D
Seasons   ever changing ever fleeting

G                      A
  It's a rhythm with a reason

G                          D
  The seasons of your life
[Solo] | G | A | D | G | A | | G | D | E | E | [Verse]
      E
We're always wanting something else

     A                         E
Each day I have to tell myself,  uh uh, uh uh

E
I ain't gonna bait that trap

     A                            E
I've wasted too much time on that,  uh huh, uh huh

    B
I'm satisfied to watch the hands

     A
Turn slowly as they can

E                     A
  Live my life day by day

    E
And if I reach a hundred

     B                             E
I'll make up for the time I threw away
[Chorus]
                    A
The seasons of your life

B                          E
   Don't let them pass you by

                   A
For as the years unwind

B                       E
  You only get one at a time

A       B                    E
Seasons   ever changing ever fleeting

A                      B
  It's a rhythm with a reason
