[Verse 1]
A                 D                       A
In these last few days, you've been on my mind
                   D                           A  E/G#  F#m
An' we should get together an' talk about old times
                   D        A        E/G#    F#m
An' put the past behind us before life slips away
D                 E       D
I been thinkin' 'bout you in these last few days

[Verse 2]
A                  D                    A
In these last few days, I have felt my age
                   D                                A  E/G#  F#m
I wish that I was younger, but time has turned the page
                  D            A    E/G#     F#m
I sure miss the water and the rhythm of the waves
D                  E       D
I've been feelin' fragile in these last few days

[Chorus]
D                 E         A
But I have been a father, a husband, and a son
D                E            A
Lookin' back is bittersweet now that my race has run
D                  E                A  E/G#       F#m
I've tried to be a witness from the cradle to the grave
D                  E      D
Time has felt so precious in these last few days

[Verse 3]
A                  D                         A
In these last few days, I have seen the light
                     D                    A E/G# F#m
And I'll be waitin' for you on the other side
                D                        A         E/G#      F#m
My old friend, I love you, that's really all there's left to say
D                E       D
Lay down here beside me in these last few days
D                    E                 A  E/G#     F#m
My old friend, I'll miss you, but I'm trying to be brave
D                E      D
Lay down here beside me in these last few days
