G                      D/F#
Life’s a hundred and five on an interstate flying
      Em                C
In a jet black ride  running red lights
      G              D/F#              Em        C
With two feet down        stomping the gas     fast
         G                   D/F#
It's a roller coaster      clicking and climbing
  Em                           C
Holding your breath thinking you're gonna die
    G                   D/F#                     Em      C
Screaming the whole way down with your hands up high   fast


[Chorus]
            G     D/F#            Em        C
You can't slow it down    you get one go around
            G             D/F#               Em        C
We're all hurrying up and trying to make it last
         G      D/F#            Em          C
And we hold on tight   to this dear sweet life
   G                     D/F#
Spinning our wheels with all we got
           Em                  C
Trying to stop that ticking clock from going
  G     D/F#       Em        C
past              fast


[Verse 2]
       G                    D/F#
It's black and white in a picture frame
 Em                    C
Funny haired dudes in high rise jeans
       G                      D/F#
And catching yourself saying  Boy
                  Em           C
Times sure have changed   and fast
       G                      D/F#
It's three  it's ten  it's seventeen
       Em                 C
It’s Twenty-one and you can't believe
   G              D/F#             Em     C
Spitting image of you and me  as a man   fast
        G                 D/F#
It's forever getting to 18 weeks
      Em                 C
In a hospital hooked to cold machine
   G                 D/F#                       Em      C
Finally hearing the sound of that little heart beat    fast


[Chorus]
            G     D/F#            Em        C
You can't slow it down    you get one go around
         G             D/F#            Em        C
It's a million little moments in your hands
         G      D/F#            Em          C
And we hold on tight   to this dear sweet life
   G                     D/F#
Spinning our wheels with all we got
           Em                  C
Trying to stop that ticking clock from going
  G     D/F#       Em        C
past                      fast
  G     D/F#       Em        C
                So fast   -    yeah


[Bridge]
            D
It's that split decision you're gonna make
            D
A second chance you might not get to take
       C
and knowing whatever you do you can't turn back
            D
Hope you always take that long way home
 D
Slow down when you smell the roses
C
     And whatever's making you mad - man - let it go   fast


[Verse 3]
             G                D/F#
It's that midnight call  it's your worst fear
  Em               C
Momma crying you need to get here
   G             D/F#                Em     C
Please be safe  leave as soon as you can   fast
          G                      D/F#
It's a hundred and five on an interstate flying
      Em               C
In a jet black ride  running red lights
  G                    D/F#              Em         C
Hoping to get there in time to hold his hand
            C
And say I love you  dad   - damn -  fast


[Outro]
  G             D/F#
Father  Son and Holy Ghost
 Em                C
Love and family  faith and hope   (x4)
