- Dash Acordes

This version is very close to the official tab; I made several slight corrections and revisions.
 
[Intro]
Em G C Am Em G C D
 
 
[Verse 1]
Em              G
Sunday mornin', preacher said
 C                   Am
"Life's a mist; it's just a breath
      Em        G
We're only here for a little while"
C D   Em               G
   He talked about his daddy's grave
        C        Am
It read 1910 to '98
        Em                 G                 C D
But the years between were just a little line
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Em        G                  C      Am
   Got me wonderin' what I'm chasin'
Em             G             C     D
   Don't want another minute wasted
 
 
[Chorus]
          Em              G
There's a day we're born, day we pass
C                   Am
In between, there's just a dash
Em                 G
What on Earth am I doin'?
C                  D
What on Earth am I doin'?
      Em              G
Yeah, I got time, but time goes fast
C                   Am
  Yeah, that line's all I have
Em                 G
What on Earth am I doin'?
C                  D
What on Earth am I doin'?
 
 
[Verse 2]
        Em                 G
I could take this life and live it well
        C                 Am
I could keep on livin' it for myself
Em                          G
What's He gonna say when He calls me up?
C D    Em              G
   Was I just words or was I love?
    C                    Am
Did I love great or just good enough?
Em             G                C D
I just hope He says, "Well done"
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Em           G                  C      Am
   I keep on wonderin' what I'm chasin'
Em             G             C     D
   Don't want another minute wasted
 
 
[Chorus]
          Em              G
There's a day we're born, day we pass
C                   Am
In between, there's just a dash
Em                 G
What on Earth am I doin'?
C                  D
What on Earth am I doin'?
      Em              G
Yeah, I got time, but time goes fast
C                  Am
 Yeah, that line's all I have
Em                 G
What on Earth am I doin'?
C                  D
What on Earth am I doin'?
 
 
[Bridge]
            Em                      G
'Cause real life's in the trenches, not from the stands
   C                      Am
In our lofty benches with manicured hands
         Em                   G
I want a dash that's dirty, a life fully spent
C                                  D
Weathered and scarred from all the life that I lived
    Em               G
The times that we go out of our way
         C                   Am
To paint beautiful blue over somebody's gray
        Em            G
When we stopped and defended injustice
   C                     D
Or sanded the heart of a friend that got rusted
Em                        G
I don't know my number or year that I'll pass
     C                      Am
From this cold world to the Kingdom that lasts
      Em                       G
But carpe diem, it's worth it; to live it, not blur it
   C                          D
Or years could fly by and you still ain't met purpose
 
 
[Chorus]
          Em              G
There's a day we're born, day we pass
C                   Am
In between, there's just a dash
Em                 G
What on Earth am I doin'?
C                  D
What on Earth am I doin'?
      Em              G
Yeah, I got time, but time goes fast
C                  Am
 Yeah, that line's all I have
Em                 G
What on Earth am I doin'?
C                  D
What on Earth am I doin'?
 
 
[Outro]
Em             G
  Life's short; but a vapor
C Am
    What you gonna do?
Em                 G
What on Earth am I doin'?
C                  D
What on Earth am I doin'?
Em G C Am Em                 G
          What on Earth am I doin'?
C                  D
What on Earth am I doin'?
