[Intro]
Fm G# C# G# 2x
[Verse]
Fm G# C# G#
Sometimes we fall down and can't get back up
Fm G# C# G#
we're hiding behind skin that's too tough
Fm G# C# G#
how come we don’t say I love you enough
Fm G# C# G#
Till it's too late, it's not too late
[Verse]
Fm G# C# G#
Our hearts are hungry for a food that won't come
Fm G# C# G#
we could make a feast from these crumbs
Fm G# C# G#
and we're all staring down the barrel of a gun
Fm G#
so if your life flashes before you
C# G#
what would you wish you would've done
[Chorus]
Yeah we gotta start
Fm G#
Lookin at the hand of the time we've been given here
C# G#
this is all we got and we gotta start pickin it
Fm G#
every second counts on a clock that's tickin'
C# G#
Cotta live like we're dying
Fm G#
We only got 86 400 seconds in a day to
C# G#
turn it all around or throw it all away
Fm
we gotta tell 'em that we love 'em
G#
while we got the chance to say
C# G#
gotta live like we're dying
[Interlude]
Fm G# C# G#
[Verse]
(
Fm) (
G#) (
C#) (
G#)
And if your plane fell out of the skies
Fm G# C# G#
who would you call with your last goodbyes
Fm G# C# G#
should be so careful who we live out our lives
Fm G#
so when we long for absolution
C# G#
there'll no one on the line
[Chorus]
Yeah we gotta start
Fm G#
Lookin at the hand of the time we've been given here
C# G#
this is all we got and we gotta start pickin it

Fm G#
We never know a good thing till it's gone
