If Today Was Your Last Day

Nickelback

Bm D A
My best friend gave me the best advice
Bm
He said each day’s a gift and not a given right
D A
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
Bm
And try to take the path less traveled by
D A
That first step you take is the longest stride

G
If today was your last day
D
and tomorrow was too late
A
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
G
Would you live each moment like your last?
D
Leave old pictures in the past
A
Donate every dime you have?
E
If today was your last day

Bm D A

Bm  D A
Against the grain should be a way of life
Bm
What’s worth the prize is always worth the fight
D A
Every second counts ’cause there’s no second try
Bm
So live like you’ll never live it twice
D A
Don’t take the free ride in your own life

G
If today was your last day
D
and tomorrow was too late
A
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
G
Would you live each moment like your last?
D
Leave old pictures in the past
A
Donate every dime you have?
G
Would you call old friends you never see?
D
Reminisce of memories
A
Would you forgive your enemies?
G
Would you find that one you’re dreamin’ of?
D
Swear up and down to God above
A
That you finally fall in love
E
If today was your last day

D
If today was your last day
A E
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart?
D A
You know it’s never too late to shoot for the stars
E
Regardless of who you are
D
So do whatever it takes
A E
‘Cause you can’t rewind a moment in this life
D
Let nothin’ stand in your way
A E
Cause the hands of time are never on your side

If today was your last day
D
and tomorrow was too late

Could you say goodbye to yesterday?

Would you live each moment like your last?

Leave old pictures in the past
