G#                                                  C#
Had another birthday, could've been the worst day I ever had
G#                                               C#
Got a little drunk, and I fell into a funk and I woke up sad
D#                                                 C#
Looked into the mirror there were lines around my eyes

Chorus:
      G#         C#
Time flies when you're having fun
      G#             D#
Time flies when you live on the run
     G#                         C#
The harder I go, the more I realize
G#    F# C# B C# G#
Time flies

Life is moving fast and I'm running out of gas
Time ain't on my side
I'm still in the race and I'm barely keeping pace
But it's worth the ride
Waiting around the corner
There's another sweet surprise

Chorus

F#   C#   F#   C#         G#
Hey yeah, hey yeah Time flies
F#   C#   F#   C#         D#
Hey yeah, hey yeah Time flies

Some sad day, they'll be taking me away
But I won't be dead
Because even when I'm gone, this stupid dance song
Will be in your head
I'll be looking down with a twinkle in my eyes

Chorus:
Time flies when you're having fun
Time flies when you live on the run
The harder I go, the more I realize
Time flies
Time flies when you're having fun
Time flies when you live on the run
The harder I go, the more I realize
Time flies
