               E            A
Every time I think I got it all figured out
                E            A
Then I draw a blank and my whole world crashes down
C#            F#
So many people have got it worse than me
G                         D    E                  D
But that could change tomorrow, ain't no guarantee

Chorus:
     A
How soon we forget
    E
To count every blessing
         F#                  D      G     A   E  D
If you think you got it bad take a look around
     A
How soon we forget
       E
That life is one big lesson
           F#              G                    D
Still we make the same mistakes time and time again
     D          A
How soon we forget

Got a friend of mine who says he's run all out of luck
But he'll be fine, cause he just ain't drunk enough
The world is empty when you're slamming those shots down
How can you be happy, son when the devil's hanging 'round

Chorus

C                     D
Just remember, thank god you're here today
C                                   G
If you got the will you can find a way
     A
How soon we forget, oh, baby

Chorus

Soon we all forget
How soon we forget
Soon we forget ooh
Take a look around and you will see
Soon we all forget oh

So many people have got it worse than me
Oh can't you see
How soon we all forget
