Over The Hill by Loudon Wainwright III
Tabbed by JRS
F Dm
Once you were a young man,
C F
But now you are old - you're over the hill.
F Dm
And you can't cross the palm of time's hand
C F
With silver and gold to make him stand still.
F Dm
Who could have possibly thought
C F
It would go so fast, but it certainly did.
F Dm
And now you find yourself caught
C F
With less future than past - you're no longer a kid.
C
Once, as a boy, time weighed heavy on your hands -
Gm C
You couldn't wait to be a man.
F Dm
Now you cry - oh, it's so hard to laugh,
C F
And you can't understand why you can't turn time around.
F Dm
Your hourglass once had a top half
C F
That was filled full of sand, but it's all trickled down.
