Intro - C - F - G
(verse 1)
C F G
I left for work in a hurry,
C F G
Rushed out the door without sayin goodbye,
C F G
I didn't tell her I loved her this morning,
Dm7
but I'll tell her tonight,
F G
I thought to myself,
(verse 2)
C F G
And as I hurried off toward the highway,
C F G
This truck out of nowhere caught me by surprise,
C F G
He missed me by inches and my life,
Dm7
Passed in front of my eyes,
F G
I guess that's the reason that,
(chorus)
F C
They say, dance every dance and live, each day,
Dm7
as though it's your last and tell those who you love,
F G
how you feel, before it's too late,
F
Life is right here and now,
C Am7 G F
We only go around, just, one, time,
F
So embrace and don't waste em,
G C
For these are the days of our lives,
(verse 2)
AS soon as my legs stopped a shaken,
I took a deep breath and turned my car around,
Oh I'm gonna take that vacation, that we talked about,
startin right now,
(verse 3)
Although I know tomorrow will be here,
Tomorrow may not always be here for me,
Cause nothin in life is for certain,
But death's gauranteed,
And that's the reason that,
(chorus)
F C
I say, dance every dance and live, each day
Dm7
as though it's your last and tell those who you love,
F G
how you feel, before it's too late,
F
Life is right here and now,
C Am7 G F
We only go around, just, one, time,
F
So embrace and don't waste em,
G C
For these are the days of our lives,
(lead chords - C - F - G - Am7 - C - F - G - Am7 - F - G)
(ending)
F
Life is right here and now,
C Am7 G F
We only go around, just, one, time,
F
So embrace and don't waste em,
G Am7 G F
For these are the days of our li---ves,
F
So embrace and don't waste em,
G C - F - G - C - F - G
For these are the days of our lives,
