Don't Blink

D               A
I turned on the evening news
G             A
Saw a old man being interviewed
D          A               G
Turning a hundred and two today
D                A
Asked him what's the secret to life
G            A
He looked up from his old pipe
D           A               G
Laughed and said all I can say is

Just like that you're six years 
           A
old and you take a nap and you
D                  A
Wake up and you're twenty-five and
     G                             
Your high school sweetheart becomes
      A
 your wife

Don't blink

You just might miss your babies

Turning into moms and dads next

    Em                  D
Of fifty years is there in bed
    G                        D
And you're praying God takes you 
instead
Em                                
Trust me friend a hundred years

I was glued to my tv when it 
G                 A
looked like he looked at me and said
D            A               
Best start putting first things 
     G          A
first
D                     A
Cause when your hourglass runs out 
of sand
         G                  A
You can't flip it over and start 
again
D                       A        
Take every breathe God gives you 
              G
for what it's worth
