G+G           C majorC   G+G
 I was a dreamer when I was young

I thought it would stay the same
   C majorC
For all my life
D MajorD    E minorEm       C majorC      D MajorD
 Playin' games under Christmas lights
     E minorEm    C majorC       D MajorD
When the world was warm and bright
E minorEm     C majorC    D MajorD
But that time just seemed to fly
            G+G A minorAm E minorEm D MajorD
In the blinking of an eye

🎸 Verse 2:
G+G          C majorC     G+G
 I was a joker when I was at school
D MajorD        E minorEm     C majorC
 Smokin' grass, laughing and gettin' high
G+G          C majorC      G+G
I never cared about nothin' at all

 Kissing girls under summer nights
     E minorEm    D MajorD      C majorC
When the world was big and bright

But that time just passed me by

In the blinking of an eye

🎸 Verse 3:
A minorAm          E minorEm
 I left home at seventeen
G+G           D MajorD
 Tried to get into the music scene
A minorAm            E minorEm
 It wore me down like an old machine
  G+G            D MajorD         G+G A minorAm E minorEm
I learnt how to work and forgot how to dream, oh
D MajorD  G+G A minorAm E minorEm D MajorD
Yeah

G+G           C majorC   G+G
 I fell in love at twenty-one
D MajorD              E minorEm     C majorC
Down in the grass, getting lost in her wide eyes
G+G              C majorC G+G
 Wouldn't have traded it for anyone
  D MajorD        E minorEm
I thought it would stay the same
   C majorC    D MajorD
For all my life
      E minorEm    C majorC    D MajorD
But I was just too young to know
     E minorEm    C majorC    D MajorD
I let her down and let her go
   E minorEm        C majorC   D MajorD
That time taught me how to cry
            G+G A minorAm E minorEm D MajorD
In the blinking of an eye
            G+G A minorAm E minorEm D MajorD
In the blinking of an eye

🎸 Verse 5:
G+G          C majorC    G+G
 I hit the road at twenty-three
D MajorD              E minorEm        C majorC
Stood in the grass, singing songs for passers-by
G+G          C majorC G+G
 Foot-loose and fancy-free
  D MajorD             E minorEm
I thought it would stay the same
        D MajorD
For all my life.
     E minorEm        C majorC     D MajorD
Oh and practice taught me how to preach
        E minorEm    C majorC    D MajorD
I touched the world, so out of reach
     E minorEm     C majorC    D MajorD
And that time, it lived and died
            G+G
In the blinking of an eye

🎸 Verse 6:
A minorAm         E minorEm
 It all changed at twenty-nine
G+G             D MajorD
 My boat came in and the stars aligned
A minorAm         E minorEm
 I watched a simple song of mine
G+G            D MajorD         G+G A minorAm E minorEm
Travel the world in the blink of an eye, yeah
D MajorD  G+G A minorAm E minorEm D MajorD
Yeah

G+G A minorAm E minorEm D MajorD

G+G         C majorC   G+G
 Now I'm here at thirty-six
D MajorD             E minorEm        C majorC
Down in the grass, tryna make sense of it all
G+G         C majorC   G+G
 Maybe there's no easy fix
  D MajorD          E minorEm    C majorC   D MajorD
The highest highs come with the hardest falls
     E minorEm     C majorC    D MajorD
See the good times come and go
      E minorEm  C majorC     D MajorD
Like the people that you know
  E minorEm   C majorC      D MajorD
And all you can do is try
                  G+G
For it's gone in the blink of an eye
