You May Never Get the Chance Again
words and music by Michael KostermanWhen I looked back she waved goodbye
She never said a word
Her lips were still, those tears asked me why
It was the loudest thing I’ve heard
I tried to tell her what my Grandpa said to me
When I was ten years oldCHORUS (A)
He said son go to Graceland, pay your respects
Ride through the Rockies on a train
Go and see the world before you wake up just like me
To find you'll never get the chance againI pulled into Memphis on a hot July morning
I couldn’t sleep the night before
A summer rain came in without a warning
Just as I stepped up to the door
The old mans words, sinking in to me
Tearing at my soulCHORUS (A)
I wanna live without regret
His story’s written, mine ain’t over yetLEAD BREAK
I didn’t think she’d be there to meet that train
Never thought she would understand
The night I had to leave her, to go and find myself
I guess she knew that I’d be back again
I could hear what she never said to me
Now I know I’m homeCHORUS (B)
She said go to Graceland, pay your respects
Ride through the Rockies on a train
Go and see the world then come back home to me
You may never get the chance againI went to Graceland, paid my respects
took a ride through the Rockies on a train
