[Verse 1]
[D]I turned on the[A] evening news
[G]Saw a old man [A]being interviewed
[D]Turning a h[A]undred and two toda[G]y[A]
[D]Asked him what's the[A] secret to life
[G]He looked up fro[A]m his old pipe
[D]Laughed and[A] said, "All I can say[G] is"[A]

[Chorus 1]
"Don't [D]blink
[A]Just like that you're six[G] years old
[A]and you take a nap and you
[D]Wake up and you[A]'re twenty-five then your
[G]high school sweett[A]heart becomes your wife
[D]Don't blink [A]you just might miss your
[G]babies growing [A]like mine did
[D]Turning int[A]o moms and dads
next [G]thing you [A]know your better half
Of [Em]fifty years [D]is there in bed
And you're [G]praying God [D]takes you instead
[Em]Trust me friend a hundred years goes
[A]faster than you think
So don't [D]blink"[A][G][A]
[D][A][G][A]

[Verse 2]
[D]Well, I was glued to [A]my TV when it
[G]looked like he [A]looked at me and said
[D]"Best sta[A]rt putting first things fir[G]st[A]
'Cause when [D]your hourglass [A]runs out of sand
You [G]can't flip it o[A]ver, start again
[D]Take every breathe God[A] gives you for what
it's [G]worth[A]

[Chorus 2]
And don't [D]blink
[A]Just like that you're six[G] years old
[A]and you take a nap and you
[D]Wake up and you[A]'re twenty-five then your
[G]high school sweett[A]heart becomes your wife
[D]Don't blink [A]you just might miss your
[G]babies growing [A]like mine did
[D]Turning int[A]o moms and dads
next [G]thing you [A]know your better half
Of [Em]fifty years [D]is there in bed
And you're [G]praying God [D]takes you instead
[Em]Trust me friend a hundred years goes
[A]faster than you think
So [D]don't [A]blink"[G][A]
[D][A][G][A]

[Bridge 1]
So I've been tryin' to [Em]slow it down
I've been tryin' to [D]take it in
In this [G]here today, gone tomorrow world we're
[A]livin' in

[Chorus 3]
So don't [D]blink
[A]Just like that you're six[G] years old
[A]and you take a nap and you
