[Intro]
G Am Em D G D Dsus4
G Am Em D
[Verse 1]
G C G
I was a dreamer when I was young
D Em C
Lyin' on the grass, starin' at the sky
G C G
I never felt the time was moving on
D Em
I thought it would stay the same
C
For all my life
D Em C
Playin' games under Christmas lights
D Em C
When the world was warm and bright
D Em C
But that time just seemed to fly
D
In the blinking of an eye
[Interlude]
G Am Em D G D Dsus4
[Verse 2]
G C G
I was a joker when I was at school
D Em C
Smokin' grass, laughing and gettin' high
G C G
I never cared about nothin' at all
D Em
I thought it would stay the same
C
For all my life
D Em C
Kissing girls under summer nights
D Em C
When the world was big and bright
D Em C
But that time just passed me by
D G Gsus4 G
In the blinking of an eye
[Bridge]
Am Em
I left home at seventeen
G D
Tried to get into the music scene
Am Em
It wore me down like an old machine
G D
I learned how to work and forgot how to dream, oh
[Interlude]
G Am Em D G D
Yea-ea-eah
G Am Em D
[Verse 3]
G C G
I fell in love at twenty-one
D Em C
Down in the grass, getting lost in her wide eyes
G C G
Wouldn't have traded it for anyone
D Em
I thought it would stay the same
D
For all my life
Em C
But I was just too young to know
D Em C
I let her down and let her go
D Em C
That time taught me how to cry
D
In the blinking of an eye
[Interlude]
G Am Em D G D
In the blinking of an eye
G Am Em D
[Verse 4]
G C G
I hit the road at twenty-three
D Em C
Stood in the grass, singing songs for passers-by
G C G
Foot-loose and fancy-free
D Em
I thought it would stay the same
D
For all my life
Em C
Oh and practice taught me how to preach
D Em C
I touched the world, so out of reach
D Em C
And that time, it lived and died
D G Gsus4 G
In the blinking of an eye
[Bridge]
Am Em
It all changed at twenty-nine
G D
My boat came in and the stars aligned
Am Em
I watched a simple song of mine
G D
Travel the world in the blink of an eye, yeah
[Interlude]
G Am Em D
Yea-ea-eah
G Am Em D x3
[Outro]
G* C* G*
Now I'm here at thirty-six
D* Em* C*
Down in the grass, tryna make sense of it all
G* C* G*
Maybe there's no easy fix
D* Em* C*
The highest highs come with the hardest falls
D* Em* C*
See the good times come and go
D* Em* C*
Like the people that you know
D* Em* C*
And all you can do is try
D* G*
For it's gone in the blink of an eye
