Ab Fm Ab Fm
[Verse 1]
Ab
I had a farmhouse
Fm
With a grandfather clock
Ab Fm
Where I would teach time to my son
Ab
Our lessons began
Fm
At twelve o'clock sharp
Ab Db Eb
When the hands would come in as one
[Verse 2]
B Gb
I'd say "The big hands count minutes,
B Dbm7
it's so tightly wound
Gb Ab Db
It chases the small hand, to make hours go round"
[Pre-chorus]
Ab Fm
I taught Thomas
Constellations in the sky
Ab Db Eb
To tell a silver maple from a cottonwood
Ab Fm
I taught Thomas
To divide and multiply
Ab Eb
But what he never understood was
[Chorus]
Gb
Time, as I watched him grow
Db
Time, he would never know
Ab Db
Time, where my regret resides
Gb
Time, if I only knew
Db
The what and how and who
Eb Cm Ab Fm
That time truly divides
[Verse 3]
Ab
There was a farmhouse
Fm
With a grandfather clock
Ab Fm
Where one day I woke up alone
Ab
They feared I was magic
Fm
They feared I was cursed
Ab
But mostly they feared the unknown
[Verse 4]
Bb
The big hand's the father
Db
The small hand's the son
Bb Bbm Eb
And there never came a time
Ab Fm
When they came back as one
Ab Fm
I taught Thomas how to catch a firefly
Ab Db Eb
How to make a pebble skip and rowboat skim
Ab Fm
She took Thomas and never said goodbye
Ab Db Eb
The one thing I could never give to him
[Chorus]
Db Ab
Was time
Db Eb
Time
Ab Bbm Bb Eb
I'm left with nothing
Ab Fm
Nothing but time
Ab Fm
