[Verse 1]
C            Fsus2      Gsus4
Older chests reveal themselves
C                       Fsus2   Gsus4
like a crack in a wall
Am              C/B   C
Starting small,
     Fmaj7        Gsus4
and grow in time
[Verse 2]
C                  Fsus2    Gsus4
And we all seem to need the help
C                  Fsus2     Gsus4
Of someone else to mend that shelf
Am                 C/B   C
for too many books
              Fmaj7        Gsus4
Read me your favorite line
[Verse 3]
C            Fsus2  Gsus4
Papa went to other lands 
C                        Fsus2 Gsus4
and he found someone who understands
Am                    C/B    C
The ticking, and the western man's
Fmaj7          Gsus4
need to cry
[Verse 4]
C                 Fsus2     Gsus4
He came back the other day, yeah you know
C                    Fsus2   Gsus4
Some things in life may change
Am                     C/B    C
And some things they stay the same
Fmaj7         Gsus4
[Chorus]
C                  Fsus2    Gsus4
Like time, there's always time
C                  Fsus2 Gsus2
                   on my mind
Am   C/B   C   Fmaj7   Gsus4
C              Fsus2    Gsus2
So pass me by, I'll be fine
C             Fsus2   Gsus2
         just give me time
Am   C/B   C   Fmaj7   Gsus4
[Verse 5]
C               Fsus2  Gsus2
Older gents sit on the fence
C                        Fsus2 Gsus2
with their cap in hand
Am             C/B   C
Looking grand
C                Fmaj7  Gsus4
they watch their city change
[Verse 6]
C                       Fsus2 Gsus4
And children scream, or so it seems
C                  Fsus2   Gsus4
louder than before
Am             C/B C
Out of doors, into stores
Fmaj7              Gsus4
with bigger names
[Verse 7]
C             Fsus2      Gsus4
Mama tried to wash their faces
C                   Fsus2       Gsus4
But these kids they lost their graces
Am              C C/B
And daddy lost at the races
Fmaj7           Gsus4
too many times
[Verse 8]
C                  Fsus2      Gsus4
She broke down the other day, yeah you know
C                   Fsus2       Gsus4
Some things in life may change
Am                   C/B      C
And some things they stay the same
Fmaj7          Gsus4
[Chorus]
C                  Fsus2  Gsus4
Like time, there's always time
C                  Fsus2 Gsus2
                   on my mind
Am   C/B   C   Fmaj7   Gsus4
C              Fsus2   Gsus2
So pass me by, I'll be fine
C             Fsus2   Gsus2
         just give me time
Am   C/B   C   Fmaj7   Gsus4
C                  Fsus2  Gsus4
Like time, there's always time
C                  Fsus2 Gsus2
                   on my mind
Am   C/B   C   Fmaj7   Gsus4
C              Fsus2   Gsus2
So pass me by, I'll be fine
C              Fsus2  Gsus2
         just give me time
Am   C/B   C   Fmaj7   Gsus4
