[Verse 1]
G                     C      G 
 I was a dreamer when I was young
D                    Em      C        
Lyin’ on the grass, starin’ Cat the sky
G                   C              G        
 I never felt the time was moving on
     D                       Em
I thought it would stay the same
     C
For all my life
D        Em             C            D
 Playin’ games under Christmas lights
          Em        C             D    
When the world was warm and bright
          Em         C        D
But that time just seemed to fly
                       G  Am  Em  D                         
In the blinking of an eye……….

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           D   
 Kissing girls under summer nights
          Em        D           C    
When the world was big and bright
           Em       D          C     
But that time just passed me by
                       G
In the blinking of an eye

[Verse 3]
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                  G  Am  Em
I learnt how to work and forgot how to dream, oh……..
D    G  Am  Em  D
Yeah………….

[Verse 4]
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 it for anyone
    D               Em 
I thought it would stay the same
     C       D
For all my life
           Em        C        D     
But I was just too young to know
          Em        C       D
I let her down and let her go
     Em               C      D  
That time taught me how to cry
                        G  Am  Em  D
In the blinking of an eye…………
                        G  Am  Em  D
In the blinking of an eye…………

[Verse 5]
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
 Foot-loose and fancy-free
   D                          Em      
I thought it would stay the same
               D
For all my life.
         Em                C          D   
Oh and practice taught me how to preach
               Em        C        D
I touched the world, so out of reach
          Em          C       D
And that time, it lived and died
                       G
In the blinking of an eye

[Verse 6]
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                 G  Am  Em
Travel the world in the blink of an eye, yeah…….
D   G  Am  Em  D  
Yeah…………

[Outro]
G                  C      G
 Now I’m here at thirty-six
D                         Em               C
Down in the grass, tryna make sense of it all
G                  C      G
 Maybe there’s no easy fix
    D                    Em        C      D       
The highest highs come with the hardest falls
          Em         C       D  
See the good times come and go
           Em    C          D
Like the people that you know
    Em      C           D
And all you can Do is try    
                                    G
For it’s gone in the blink of an eye..
