[Intro]

C Am7 Em F

[Verse 1]

C Am7 Em F

Time is money, time is short

C Am7 Em F

Time's a lesson we've all got to learn,

C Am7 Em F

Time is function in the human brain,

C Am7 Em F

Time is waiting, time is burning things

[Chorus]

C Am7 Em F

Why buy time trying to make things right

C Am7 Em F

And why buy time trying to figure out this life,

C Am7 Em F

When all I do is sing praises to you,

C Am7

All the time, all the time

Em F C Am7 Em F

You can buy my time, all the time of my life

[Verse 2]

C Am7 Em F

If time is greedy then time will take,

C Am7 Em F

And if time is lovely then time will wait,

C Am7 Em F

If time doesn't match up there's nothing you can do,

C Am7 Em7 F

But wait for more time to see you through

[Bridge]

C Am7 Em F

Time is ticking, time will go,

C Am7 Em F

Time is ticking but how slow
