In the chorus, on the 1st and 3rd line, pluck the 2nd fret of you E string to do a

Capo 2
Verse 1:
G D
Father Time used to dance through the night
G C
with the ghost of America's prime.
G D
He's still on our side with a family man's pride
C D G
With the hope he will rise once again.
Chorus:
Em G Dsus4 C
So hold us closely now.
Em G C
We'll rise once again.
Em G Dsus4 C
These years won't pass us by.
Em G C
So come alive my friends.
Verse 2:
An old man said "I'm alive til I'm dead"
So simple but I asked what he meant
He said life and love might be gifts from above
But our happiness comes from within
Life and love might be gifts from above
But our happiness comes from within
Chorus
