[Intro]
D G D
[Verse 1]
D
Dear today, tomorrow here
G D
Man I was just checkin' in, hope you’ve been well
Me, I'm doin' alright, could always be better
G A D
But I figure that you're the only one with a choice in the matter
If I know you, hell, you're too busy
G D
To do damn near anything, that you ought to
D
I guess what I'm sayin' is, if you don't change
G A D
Boy, you'll be kickin' yourself one of these days
[Chorus]
G
So maybe you should call our Mama, have a drink with our old man
D
Quit wastin' our sweet time and put that diamond on her hand
G
Stop takin' me for granted like I'll always be around
D
Cause even as you read this boy that clock is tickin' down
A G
And remember every second I got's borrowed
A D
So I hope you think of me today, sincerely tomorrow
[Verse 2]
D
Listen I ain't tryin', to bring you down
G D
Cause I sure know better than, pushin' you around
D
I guess I was just lookin' out, for you and me both
G A D
Cause we both lose if I told you so
[CHORUS]
G
So maybe you should call our Mama, have a drink with our old man
D
Quit wastin' our sweet time and put that diamond on her hand
G
Stop takin' me for granted like I'll always be around
D
Cause even as you read this boy that clock is tickin' down
A G
And remember every second I got's borrowed
A D
So I hope you think of me today, sincerely tomorrow
[Instrumental Bridge]
D G
[Chorus]
G
So maybe you should call our Mama, have a drink with our old man
D
Quit wastin' our sweet time and put that diamond on her hand
G
Stop takin' me for granted like I'll always be around
D
Cause even as you read this boy that clock is tickin' down
A G
And remember every second I got's borrowed
A D
So I hope you think of me today, sincerely tomorrow
