[Verse 1]
F
I met with an old friend last evening
                                C
and I mentioned concerns that I have
C
about things that unfurled in the ways of the world
                                   F
and how sometimes it makes me feel sad
F
I said life can be so complicated
                               Bb
and I'm scared I might lose my way
                                    F
when af friendly hand pressed on my shoulder
C                         F
he smiled and I heard him say

[Chorus]
C    F
Son, don't take the goodtimes for granted
                                 C
for things keep on changing each day
C
make time to be with the ones that you love
            C7            F
let nothing stand in your way
F
we don't know what waits round the corner
                        Bb
we never know what lies ahead
                        F
so just for a moment forget all your troubles
    C7                         F
and count all your blessings instead

                               B
