Strum
D-DU-UDU
sometimes  we fall  down and  can't get back  up
we're  hiding behind skin  that's too  tough
how  come we don't  say I love  you enough
Till  it's too late, it's  not too late
Our  hearts are hungry  for a food  that won't  come
we  could make  a feast  from these crumbs
and  we're all staring  down the barrel of  a gun
so  if your life flashed before  you
 what would you wish  you would've done
 Yeah... gotta start
 (tambourine)
lookin  at the hand of the time  we've been given here
this  is all we got and we gotta  start pickin it
every  second counts on a clock  that's tickin'
gotta  live like we're dying
 We only got
86  400 seconds  in a day to
turn  it all around or throw  it all away
we  gotta tell 'em that we love 'em
 while we got  the chance to say
 gotta  live like we're dying
And  if your plane  fell out  of the  skies
who  would you call  with your  last goodbyes
should  be so careful  who we live  out our  lives
so  when we long for absolution
there'll  no one on the line
 Yeah... gotta start
 (tambourine)
lookin  at the hand of the time  we've been given here
this  is all we got and we gotta  start pickin it
every  second counts on a clock  that's tickin'
gotta  live like we're dying
 We only got
86  400 seconds  in a day to
turn  it all around or throw  it all away
we  gotta tell 'em that we love 'em
 while we got  the chance to say
 gotta  live like we're dying
Like  we're dying  oh--  like we're dying
Like  we're dying  oh--  like we're dying
We  never know a good thing till it's gone
 you never see a crash  until it's head on
 all those people right  when we're dead wrong
 you never know a good  thing till it's gone
lookin  at the hand of the time  we've been given here
this  is all we got and we gotta  start pickin it
every  second counts on a clock  that's tickin'
gotta  live like we're dying
Like  we're dying  oh--  like we're dying
Like  we're dying  oh--  like we're dying
