Cmaj7 Fmaj7 x2
[Verse 1]
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7/E
How do you know if you've done everything right?
Dm7
Is it the love you have at hand
G7
Or the cash you kiss at night?
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7/E
How do you know if it was worth it in the end?
Dm7
Did every second really count?
G7
Or were there some you should've spent
Am F
On anything but anyone you love?
Am F
Was this the life that you were dreaming of?
F/E Dm7
A movie night, a yellow light
G7 F G7
You're slowin' down and days are adding up
[Chorus]
C F F/E
So don't waste the time you have
G/B C C/B
Waiting for time to pass
Am Dm
It's only a lifetime, that’s only a while
G7 C
It's not worth the anger you felt as a child

G/B C C/B
Waiting for time to pass
Am Dm
It's only a lifetime, that's not long enough

Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7/E
I'm unimpressed by the people preachin' pain
Dm7
In the sake of some small game
G7
In the sake of someone's name
Cmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7/E
I'm unprepared for my loved ones to be gone

I call 'em way too often now

Worry way too much about Mom

[Bridge]
Am G/B F
It's family and friends and that's the truth
Am G/B F F/E
The fountain doesn't give you back your youth
Dm7 G7
You're stayin' up too late at night and laughin' under kitchen lights
Am G7
So hard, you start to cry
[Chorus]

Don't waste the time you have
