I think this is a brilliant and very underappreciated song. Hopefully this tab will help to keep
the song alive!
These chords fit pretty well, but there may be
some mistakes in the lyrics. Please feel free to comment and I will correct any mistakes you see!
Capo: Fret 1
Em
What can you say
Am
when you see it all just slip away
Bm
Wasted opportunities
Em
A chance went begging but you wouldn't play
Em
All you had to do was ask
Am
How quickly the time does pass
D B
Every day gets shorter, see how the years fly by
Em
Dreams that never were fulfilled
Am
Tales no lips can ever tell
D
You get no second chances
B
This ticket's good one way
Em
You can't change the days gone by
Am
It doesn't matter how you try
Bm
Watch the hands of time march on
Em
And see the caravan of life go by
Em
And so one day soon
Am
Perhaps you'll come to know the truth
Bm
When our race is almost run
Em
And we have paid the keepers price with youth
Em
Once again we'll all remark
Am
How quickly the time does pass
D
Every day gets shorter
B
See how the years fly by
Em
Hopes we never realized
Am
Those times we never even tried
D
You get no second chances
B
This ticket's good one way
Em
You can't change the days gone by
Am
It doesn't matter how you try
Bm
Watch the hands of time march on
Em
And see the caravan of life go by
You can end the song here by repeating the last 2 lines to finish, which I prefer to do.
The only difference between doing this and the original version, is that the original version
now repeats verse 1-4, and then ends with the last 2 lines, making the song slightly longer.
