[Chorus]
G C G
I'm not afraid of getting older
Em G
I'm one less day from dying young
G C G
I see the light go past my shoulder
Em G
I'm one less day from dying young
[Verse 1]
G C G
I see my life like a train with a one-way track
D C G
I've made mistakes, and I couldn't take 'em back
G C G
And I've been runnin' 'round in circles 'til I'm dizzy, I can't lie
D C G
But every night I go to sleep's a day that I survive
[Chorus]
G C G
I'm not afraid of getting older
Em G
I'm one less day from dying young
G C G
I see the light go past my shoulder
Em G
I'm one less day from dying young
[Verse 2]
G C G
And I've seen my friends fall away before their time
D C G
And I've been afraid that I may follow in their light
G C G
So I drink and love and whisper all the things I know are right
D C G
Someday, I will leave this world, but maybe not tonight
[Chorus]
G C G
I'm not afraid of getting older
Em G
I'm one less day from dying young
G C G
I see the light go past my shoulder
Em G
I'm one less day from dying young
Em G
I'm one less day from dying young
[Bridge]
G C G
All my life I have been wandering
C G D
Burning up my candle like my time just won't end
G C G/B
And I'll keep burning 'til there's nothing left
Em C G
Praying that tomorrow I can do it all again
Em C G
And if I get tomorrow, I will do it all again
[Chorus]
G C G
I'm not afraid of getting older
Em G
I'm one less day from dying young
G C G
I see the light go past my shoulder
Em G
I'm one less day from dying young
[Chorus]
G C G
I'm not afraid of getting older
Em G
I'm one less day from dying young
G C G
I see the light go past my shoulder
Em G
I'm one less day from dying young (from dying young!)
Em G
I'm one less day from dying young (from dying young!) Hey!
[Outro]
G C G Em G
(I'm one less day from dying young)
G C G Em G
(I'm one less day from dying young)
Em G
(I'm one less day from dying young)
