(Then it repeats, so it almost sounds like it goes C9 Dsus4 G
So, after the end of the Dsus4 bit, go straight to the G bass note.)

G C9 Dsus4 G
Another turning point a fork stuck in the road
G C9 Dsus4 G
Time grabs you by the wrist directs you where to go
Em Dsus4 C9 G
So make the best of these days and don’t ask why
Em Dsus4 C9 G
It’s not a question but a lesson learned in time

(Okay, now, it’s important that you go straight back into the
opening G of the verse, because the Dsus4 sort of leaves you
hanging there. Then play the first half of the verse once
through, then start it all over again.)
Em G Em G
It’s something unpredictable in the end it’s right
Em Dsus4 G (where verse riff cuts back in)
I hope you have the time of your life.

Verse 2:
G C9 Dsus4 G
So take the photographs and stillframes in your mind
G C9 Dsus4 G
Hang it on a shelf; it could’ve been good times (
Em Dsus4 C9 G
Tatoos and memories and asking on trial
Em Dsus4 C9 G
For what it’s worth it was worth all the while
