I haven't had a drink of alcohol in over 26 years and I do it one day at a time.
Verse 1
D A E
Well you know, I was always the first to arrive at the party,
D A E
Ooh... and the last to leave the scene of the crime.
D F#m
Well it started with a couple of beers,
D F#
And it went I don't know how many years,
D E A
Like a runaway train headed for the end of the line.
Verse 2
D A E
Well I finally got around to admit that I might have a problem.
D A E
But I thought it was just too damn big of a mountain to climb.
D F#m
Well I got down on my knees and said "Hey!
D F#
I just can't go on living this way!"
D E A
Guess I have to learn to live my life one day at a time.
Bridge
C - G D - G E A
Oh yeah! One day at a time!
C - G D - G E A
Oh yeah! One day at a time!

Verse 3
D A E
Well I finally got around to admit that I was a problem.
D A E
When I used to put the blame on everybody's shoulders but mine.
D F#m
All the friends I used to run with are gone,
D F#
Lord, I hadn't planned on livin' this long.
D E A
But I finally learned to live my life one day at a time! 2:54
Coda
D F#m
It was something I was too blind to see,
D F#
I got help from something greater than me...
D E A
And today I learned to live my life one day at a time! 3:18
