Verse 1:

G He had everything he wanted Dm All his stars were lining up C Like an inside straight C G When you go all in on a Vegas run G Then one rainy night G Dm While driving his Mercedes up that ladder C G He lost control of what he thought he had G And his life was done

Pre-Chorus

Am The preacher man said Am G C G Here lies the richest man in town Am7 Maybe in heaven Am7 D He'll finally find happiness he never found
G Man, it hit me like a bolt of lighting D Living was just passing right by me Em D Time to slow down, take a look around C D Tomorrow can't replace what I've got right now G Running along at the speed of crazy D Blowing right past the gifts God gave me Em D C G Nobody gets to go around this world twice Am D G Lord, don't let me live an unfinished life

Bridge:

G Sat on an old park bench Dm Man, I kicked off my shoes C Felt the grass between my toes G First time since I don't know when G Thought about the days I wasted Dm All the things I left unsaid C How that big brass ring I'd been chasin' G Ain't gonna matter in the end

Verse 2:

Am C G Just about then a kid walked up C Said Mister have you got the time? G Am7 Am Smiled as I took that watch off my wrist D Said, 'Son, you can have mine'
Final G Man, it hit me like a bolt of lighting D Living was just passing right by me Em D Time to slow down, take a look around C D Tomorrow can't replace what I've got right now G Running along at the speed of crazy D Blowing right past the gifts God gave me Em D C G Nobody gets to go around this world twice Am D G Lord, don't let me live an unfinished life Dm C D G G Running along at the speed of crazy D Blowing right past the gifts God gave me Em D C G Nobody gets to go around this world twice Am D G Lord, don't let me live an unfinished life
