 verse 1 
 
  G                       C9                 D 
   
Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road 
 
 G                              C9                 D 
   
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go 
 
 Em           D             C                 G 
 
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why 
 
 Em           D               C                G 
 
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time 
 
 
 Chorus 
 
 Em                 G             Em             G  
 
It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right 
 
   Em               D            G 
 
I hope you had the time of your life

 verse 2  
 
 G                           C9                   D 
 
So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind 
 
 G                     C9                    D 
 
Hang it on a shelf in good health, and good time 
 
 Em           D          C             G 
 
Tattoos of mEmories and dead skin on trial 
 
 Em             D            C              G 
 
For what it´s worth, it was worth all the while 
 
 
 Chorus 
 
 Em               G                Em            G

 Em                  D           G 
 
I hope you had the time of your life.
