[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, and starin' at the sky
G                                   C              G
I never felt that 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 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
And 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
Footloose 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 a 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, tryin' to 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
