[G][A]

[Verse 1]
[D]I fall
[G]in love [D]about once a sea[G]son
I [D]follow [G]my heart,
which I [D]wear on my [G]sleeve and
[D]I drive too[G] fast 'til the[D]
sirens come [G]screaming
[A]Don't tak[E]e it for gra[Bm]nted
'Cause [G]you taught [A]me life goes
[D]away

[Verse 2]
[G]
[D]So get busy living[G] or [D]get busy dying[G]
[D]I'd say I forgive you[G] but[D]
then I would be lying
[A]It's been [D]sixteen [G]years and [D]your
mother's still cry[G]ing[A]
[E]Don't you feel guilty? I'm [G]just say
[A]ing it how [D]it is
[G][D][A]

[Verse 3]
[Bm]
God only [G]knows what we lost [D]that
day in the [Bm]snow[A][Bm]
Martyrs be[G]fore you got started,
[D]you missed the whole [Bm]show[A][Em]
But you were [G]only eight[D]een
Just a couple of kid[A]s,
it's only now I [Em]see
'Cause I'm [A]twice the age
you'll ever be
[D][G][D]

[Verse 4]
[G]
And your [D]poor little brother[G],
[D]you put him through it[G]
[D]Only thir[G]teen [D]when he
watched you do it
And it makes me so [G]mad [D]to think,
you probably knew [G]it[A]
[E]I hope you both know that l[G]ittle b[A]oy
still found [D]his way
[G][D][A]

But you were [G]only eight[D]een
Just a couple [A]of kids,
it's only now [Em]I see
'Cause I'm [A]twice the age you'll ever [D]be[G][D]
