A
Somebody never told me there’s a last 
            A7
Time for everything
       D                  Dm
Even a landslide is an opening
                   A G
Turning metal into gold
       F#                    Bm    E
So the line is somebody never told me


[chorus]
D                   Bm
Paper flowers don’t die
                   A G              
But neither do they live like you and 
F#
I
                        Bm  A      
Lightning never striking twice is a 
E
Lie
                                 A A7
Like good things coming when you wait
             D             C#
To tell the truth, I gotta say
          A        G     F#
I don’t believe in yesterday
                       Bm A     E
I don’t wanna live forevеr, anyway
                      A  C#m        
For a moment that was never  hеre to 
F#m
Stay
               Bm    E
Forget about tomorrow
           F#m
For just today

[verse 2]
                                A    
Somebody never told me there’s a first
              A7
Time for everything
       D             Dm
It’s a free fall, discovery
                  A      G          
On the day you get that call and the 
F#
Waiting is over
       Bm                         E
It all changes in the blink of an eye

[chorus]
D                   Bm
Paper flowers don’t die
                   A G               
But neither do they live like you and 
F#
I
                        Bm A       
Lightning never striking twice is a 
E
Lie
                                 A A7
Like good things coming when you wait
            D              C#
To tell the truth, I gotta say
          A        G     F#
I don’t believe in yesterday
                      Bm A     E
I don’t wanna live forever, anyway
                     A C#m         
For a moment that was never here to 
F#m
Stay
             Bm                    
Forget about tomorrow (forget about 
      E
Tomorrow)
           F#m
Just for today
               Bm   E
Forget about tomorrow
           A               Amaj7 A7
Just for today (just for today)
   D         Dm
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Dm       A
Just for today
