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

In the things they taught you were real?

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
