     G                       D/F# 
On a plane to the West Coast, laptop on my tray 
C                              D 
Papers spread across my seat, a big deadline to make 
G                                    D 
An older man sitting next to me said, "Sorry to intrude, 
C                               D 
Thirty years ago my busy friend, I was you. 
Em             Bm        C                D 
I made a ton of money and I climbed up the ladder, 
Em          Bm       C                D 
Yeah, I was superman, not what does it matter.

            G 
I missed the first steps my daughter took 
   Am                                   C 
The time my son played Captain Hook in 'Peter Pan' 
                       D 
I was in New York, said 'Sorry son, Dad has to work' 
G 
I missed the father daughter dance 
   Am 
The first home run, no second chance 
     C 
To be there when he crossed the plate 
   D 
The moment's gone now it's too late 
C               Bm                       Am 
Fame and fortune come with a heavy price 
    D               G         D/G  C  D 
Son, don't miss your life." 

G                               D 
Funny you should say that, I was sitting at the gate 
  C                                                  D 
My daughter called, she made straight A's and they're off to celebrate. 
G                                   D 
Scrolling through the pictures of my little family 
  C                                        D 
My daughter with her mom and friends, not a single one with me. 
Em         Bm          C                D 
They know I love 'em, I know they know I care 
Em          Bm             C                   D 
The truth is half the time, I'm not even there.

"I thought you were supposed to be in Portland 
                          D 
For a few more days", I'll take her in my arms and say 
  C                     Bm                       Am  D 
"I heard some words that hit me hard last night,

A man said: 'Don't miss your life'."
