VERSE ONE:
E B
You live in that three bedroom, two bath house your whole life
C#m A
Think that you'll never grow up, then you're packin' up
E B
Puttin' boxes into the back in your parents' driveway
C#m A
You drive too slow, and leave the only home you know
CHORUS:
E B
'Cause times like these, they go too fast
C#m
You blink like that
A
And you never get it back, never get it back
E B
Hold today like it's your last
C#m
Once you let go
A
And you never get it back, never get it back

E B
Soak it all in while you can
B C#m
'Cause one of these seconds, you can't
A
So don't let it slip through your hands
E B
I replay all of your voicemails to remind me
C#m A
What you sound like, and I still smile
E B
I'd give anything to drive halfway across this country
C#m
To feel you hug me
A
To hear you say you love me
CHORUS:
E B
'Cause times like these, they go too fast
C#m
You blink like that

Hold today like it's your last
