[Verse]
     A             E/G#
Our life is like a mist that appears;
     Bm7        F#m7        G
In a moment of time, it’s gone.
         A                E/G#
And our love is like the warm summer sun;
        Bm7            F#m7    G                 Bm7   E
Let it shine on the ones we love while there’s time.

[Chorus]
         D                A           E              F#m7
I could take it all for granted, let time just slip away,
       D                A/C#              E
And forget to love the ones I love right now.
         D              A          E     F7   F#m7
I could put off till tomorrow what I can do today,
        D            A              B7
But I never want regrets to bring me down.
A/C#     D                  E                         A
So I’m counting ev’ry minute and making ev’ry minute count.

E/G#  Bm7  F#m7  G

[Verse]
        A            E/G#
When I see so much beauty around,
         Bm7        F#m7        G
All the love that Jehovah has shown,
        A           E/G#
Then I know that I want to give to him
       Bm7        F#m7       G          Bm7  E
Ev’ry hour, ev’ry minute of life that I own.

[Chorus]
         D                A           E              F#m7
I could take it all for granted, let time just slip away,
       D                A/C#              E
And forget to show my love for him right now.
         D              A          E     F7   F#m7
I could put off till tomorrow what I can do today,
        D            A              B7
But I never want regrets to bring me down.
A/C#     D                  E                         A
So I’m counting ev’ry minute and making ev’ry minute count.

[Bridge]
G/A      D       E/D            C#m7  F#m7
Right ahead is a beautiful new world
       Bm7    D/E       G/A
That Jehovah wants to share.
Em       D         E/D              C#m7  F#m7
And our time is a gift that we can give.
    Bm7               E
So until that day is here,

[Chorus]
         D                A           E              F#m7
I won’t take it all for granted or let time slip away
       D                A/C#              E
Or forget to love the ones I love right now.
         D              A          E     F7   F#m7
I won’t put off till tomorrow all that I can do today,
        D            A              B7
’Cause I never want regrets to bring me down.
       A/C#    D                   E                           A
That’s why I’m counting ev’ry minute and making ev’ry minute count.
