Verse:
D MajorD
My grandpa was fast
G+G D MajorD
As New Jersey lightning
B minorBm G+G D MajorD
Would flash across the summer time sky
D MajorD
He was light on his feet
G+G D MajorD
But time is a thief
B minorBm A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
And now his stories have seen ten thousand miles
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
Someday we're all gonna die
D MajorD G+G B minorBm A augmentedA
God willing, today ain't the da---ay
D MajorD G+G
So pour me a drink
B minorBm G+G
And give me one song to sing
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
And then I will be on my way
D MajorD
But now I am the child
G+G D MajorD
Of an honest mistake
B minorBm G+G D MajorD
Of some puppy love that went too far
D MajorD
So I grew up fast
G+G D MajorD
With a world handled bad
B minorBm A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
I've seen more done with less made so hard
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
Someday we're all gonna die
D MajorD G+G B minorBm A augmentedA
God willing, today ain't the da---ay
D MajorD G+G
So pour me a drink
B minorBm G+G
And give me one song to sing
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD A augmentedA
And then I will be on my way

Now what does it mean
G+G D MajorD
When you can't believe
B minorBm G+G D MajorD
In the things they taught you were real?
D MajorD
Well I am not sure
G+G D MajorD
Don't know much anymore
B minorBm A augmentedA D MajorD
But I wish I recalled how to feel
D MajorD G+G D MajorD
Someday we're all gonna die
D MajorD G+G B minorBm A augmentedA
