[Verse]
E D A E
I got one hand on the bottle, and one foot in the grave
E D A E
It's been too long since I stepped, but I, I, I ain't got time to waste
Bm D
Three long days, boy you'd better break
A E
When that light shines on you
Bm D A E
Gonna want to stay forever and a day, but it's the night I belong to
[Pre-Chorus]
E D A
Well the clock keeps ticking, and your time is running out
E D A A A A
Well the clock keeps ticking, and your time is running, running, running, running
[Chorus]
E D A D E
So, I'm gonna live my life like it's my last damn night
E D A D E
'Cause when the clock strikes twelve, we're all gonna go to hell
E D A D E
Said I'm gonna live my life like it's my last damn night
E D A D E
I'm gonna live my life like it's my last damn night
