Intro: D D G D Bm G 

Verse 
D 
My grandpa was fast 
   G          D 
As New Jersey lightning 
      Bm               G           D 
Would flash across the summer time sky 
       D 
He was light on his feet 
    G         D 
But time is a thief 
            Bm                A            D          A 
And now his stories have seen ten thousand miles 

D             G         D 
Someday we're all gonna die 
    D        G               Bm   A 
God willing, today ain't the da---ay 
   D         G 
So pour me a drink 
            Bm          G 
And give me one song to sing 
    D           A        D         A 
And then I will be on my way 

        D 
But now I am the child 
      G        D 
Of an honest mistake 
        Bm         G             D 
Of some puppy love that went too far 
   D 
So I grew up fast 
       G             D 
With a world handled bad 
          Bm             A            D         A 
I've seen more done with less made so hard 

D             G         D 
Someday we're all gonna die 
    D        G               Bm   A 
God willing, today ain't the da---ay 
   D         G 
So pour me a drink 
            Bm          G 
And give me one song to sing 
    D           A        D         A 
And then I will be on my way

    D 
Now what does it mean 
     G           D 
When you can't believe 
       Bm          G               D 
In the things they taught you were real? 
     D 
Well I am not sure 
           G       D 
Don't know much anymore 
       Bm      A             D 
But I wish I recalled how to feel 

D             G         D 
Someday we're all gonna die 
    D        G               Bm   A 
God willing, today ain't the da---ay 
   D         G 
So pour me a drink 
            Bm          G 
And give me one song to sing 
    D           A        D         A 
And then I will be on my way 

D             G         D 
Someday we're all gonna die 
    D        G               Bm   A 
God willing, today ain't the da---ay 
   D         G 
So pour me a drink 
            Bm          G 
And give me one song to sing 
    D           A        Bm         G 
And then I will be on my way 

    D           A        D 
And then I will be on my way
