Intro:

F    C    Am    Am
 
Verse 1:
 
F                C             Am
     If I don't wake tomorrow morning
        Am                      F
Empty shoes on the side of the hall
           C                E7
And if my number, it stops calling
          E7                      F
Picture frames hanging up by the door
            C
You try to reach right in
     E              Am
And hold on to the little things
           F         C
But they slip away
           E
But it's okay

Chorus:
                          F       C       Am
'Cause I had a hell of a time
          Am                    F        C      E7
Know that I had the time of my life
      E7             F
So remember me and smile
             C                 E7                  Am
All of the souls heading back home down a one-way road
       F      C
So it goes
                    E
Until the caskets close
 
 
Verse 2:
F                C                 Am
     And if you get that sinking feeling
         Am                  F
Thinking about the time we shared
           C                   E7
I hope it helps you with your healing
  E7                    F
Knowing that I wasn't scared
          C
I savored еverything
    E7                   Am
I pressed thе world up against my skin
       F                 C
I was lucky   I guess
                     E
I always found the beauty in the mess
 
 
Prechorus 1:
               F                     C
You gotta hold on to the little things
                   Am               Am
But you gotta let go just a little bit
                  F                          C
When another one goes one will find their wings
                            E7                    E7
And they'll find their way home, little take and give
             F                     C
Into the unknown and the changing tides,
              E7                 Am
The sun sets low on an endless sky
                   F                  C
So much we don't know, I don't know why
             E
But I'll be fine
 
 
Chorus:
                          F       C       Am
'Cause I had a hell of a time
          Am                    F        C      E7
Know that I had the time of my life
      E7             F
So remember me and smile
             C                 E7                 Am
All of the souls heading back home down a one-way road
       F      C
So it goes
                    E
Until the caskets close
 
 
Bridge:
F                          C
   Raise the toast as the curtains close
         E                Am
And the sunset fades to black
        F                    C
So the    story goes we all walk with ghosts
    E               Am
No one-way tickets back
F                        C
  The casualties of our memories
       E                      Am
That slip right through the cracks
        F                     C
All the inside jokes and the times we spoke
            E            Am
Will stay frozen in the past
 
 
Prechorus 2:
               F                  C
You gotta hold on to the little things
                  E                 Am
But you gotta let go just a little bit
                     F                   C
I guess we'll never know what tomorrow brings
                           E                   Am
But just know you're not alone in the thick of it
                 F                      C
I know it feels cold when the caskets close
         E                Am
Stories untold on a headstone
                   F              C
For those who grow old it'll fly by
                   E
In the blink of an eye
 
 
Chorus:
                            F      C     Am
So we'll have a hell of a time
            Am                        F       C      E7
Know that we'll have the time of our lives
      E7             F
So remember us and smile
            C                  E7                  Am
All of the souls heading back home down a one-way road
       F     C
So it goes
                    E
Until the caskets close
 
                        F       C       Am
We'll have a hell of a time
            Am                        F        C      E7
Know that we'll have the time of our lifes
      E7             F
So remember us and smile
             C                 E7                  Am
All of the souls heading back home down a one-way road
       F      C
So it goes
                    E
Until the caskets close
