[Verse 1]
GBy tomorrow I bet, I could crawl ouDsus4/F#t of bed
And I Em7might even open thDsus4/F#e sheets
And the Gweekend will fly, and soDsus4/F#me friends will drop by
And Em7tell me I'll Dsus4/F#be ok
By TueGsday the hurt, won’t kDsus4/F#eep me from work
And I'll hEm7ide it from evCadd9eryone
Sounds eGasy to do if I jCadd9ust get through day Gone
In Ga week or so, all the Dsus4/F#neighbors will know
When they doEm7n't see a car outsiDsus4/F#de
By daGy 17 I won't Dsus4/F#need a drink, to hEm7elp me close my Dsus4/F#eyes
By daGy 28 I go ouDsus4/F#t on a date, and shEm7e'll think I'm havinCadd9g fun
Sounds eGasy to do if Cadd9I just get through day Gone
[Chorus]
I can't skip the Empain
I can't stop my Gmind
So i’ll just Emtake, one aDt a time
It mGight even be, a yDsus4/F#ear maybe three
Before the dEm7amage comes undCadd9one
But i’ll gGet over you if Cadd9I just get through Gday one
[Verse 2]
By dGay 45 I wDsus4/F#on’t have to drive by your hEm7ouse on my way Dsus4/F#home
But Gday 92 if I Dsus4/F#run into you, It won't kiEm7ll me if you’re not Dsus4/F#alone
By the eGnd of September Dsus4/F#I bet you remember, how hEm7ard this first nighCadd9t was
When it was Gall I could do to Cadd9try to get through day oGne
[Chorus]
I can't skip the Empain
I can't stop my Gmind
So i’ll just tEmake, one at a tDime
It might eGven be more than a Dsus4/F#year maybe four
Before the dEm7amage comes undCadd9one
But i’ll gGet over you if I can Cadd9just get through day Gone
[Verse 3]
GThere come a time when the stDsus4/F#ing of goodbye won’t be hanEm7ging in every rooDsus4/F#m
Could be FGall, could be Summer
Dsus4/F#Don’t know the number, but Em7it can’t come too Dsus4/F#soon
[Chorus]
I can't skip the Empain
I can't stop my Gmind
So i’ll just tEmake, one at a timeD  
It might eGven be more than a Dsus4/F#year maybe four
Before the daEm7mage comes Cadd9undone

But I Gsee the lesson, Dsus4/F#call it a blessing when Em7that day finaCadd9lly comes
You’ll just be Gsomeone I knew if I jCadd9ust get through day Gone
