Kenny Chesney — Dont Blink

Capo 2nd Fret
 
Verse 1
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."

Chorus

D
Don't blink
A              G              A         
Just like that you're six years old and you take a nap and you
D            A                            
Wake up and you're twenty-five and 
   G                        D
your high school sweetheart becomes your wife

D
Don't blink
A             G              A 
You just might miss your babies growing like mine did
D        A            G              A
Turning into moms and dads next thing you know your "better half"
   Em            D
Of fifty years is there in bed
   G                D
And you're praying God takes you instead
Em                            A
Trust me friend a hundred years goes faster than you think
      D         A     G    A
So don't blink

Verse 2
D          A           G           A 
I was glued to my tv when it looked like he looked at me and said
D        A              G       A            
"Best start putting first things first."
D              A
Cause when your hourglass runs out of sand
      G            A
You can't flip it over and start again
D                A               G 
Take every breathe God gives you for what it's worth



Chorus

D
Don't Blink
A              G              A

D            A   
Wake up and you're twenty-five and
   G                        D
your high school sweetheart becomes your wife
D
Don't blink
A             G              A

Guitar Solo
Refrain
     Em
So I've been tryin' ta slow it down
   D
I've been tryin' ta take it in
    G                           A
In this here today, gone tomorrow world we're livin' in
