[Verse]
         D            G         C         Bm              D/A
I met an old man on a Greyhound on my way down to New Or- leans
           D              G         C               G                         D
He started talkin' in the backseat, he pulled out a flask and passed it to me
D                           G
He said, "Someday you'll be my age
C                 G                    D
And start lookin' back on where you've been
                                   G
You'll get a little sad and just a little mad
        C                   G            D
When it hits you, you can't do it all a- gain?"

[Bridge]
                 Bm                     D
So, order up the good wine, soak up the sunshine
                    C         Bm             A
And don't forget to take time to try to love someone

[Chorus]
D                                    Em
'Cause life's just a crazy ride on a runaway train
C                G                 D
And you can't go back for what you missed
                               Em                        F#m
So, make it good, make it last 'cause it all files by so fast
C            G       D
And you only get one trip

             D                     G         C               G             D
I got off in Jackson and I started thinkin', starin' out the window at the rain
                                   G
And I been livin' like a man sleep walkin'
C                G                            D
There's a lot of things that I'm gonna change

[Bridge]
                       Bm                              D
I'm gonna order up the good wine, start soakin' up the good times
                  C          Bm             A
Won't let another day go by, without lovin' someone

[Chorus]
D                                    Em
'Cause life's just a crazy ride on a runaway train
C                G                 D
And you can't go back for what you missed
                               Em                        F#m
So, make it good, make it last 'cause it all files by so fast
C            G       D
And you only get one trip
