Bottle Of Rain
The Town Pants
(Verse)
G C G C
Morning came through my window, didn’t stop to say hello
G C G-D G C
Quickly made way for afternoon, afternoon stuck around
G C G C G
Only till the sun went down, suddenly I’m staring at the moon
G C G C
Monday came and went so fast, barely noticed Tuesday pass
G C G-D G C
Wednesday just couldn’t stick around, Thursday Friday Saturday
G C G C G
What happened to them I can’t say, I’m losing time and losing ground
(chorus)
D C D C
Where’d it go, The time that I had where’d they go, the plans that I made
D C
Once upon a time was like an ocean before me
D G-C-G-C-G-C-D
Now its like a bottle full of rain, a bottle full of rain
(Verse)
G C G C
Today feels like yesterday, yesterday’s a mile away
G C G-D G C
Don’t believe tomorrow never came, tomorrow came weeks ago
G C G C G
I don’t have a thing to show, all my life is still the same
G C G C
The New Year began today, tomorrow is the end of May
G C G-D G C
Indian summer’s round the bend, I’m moving at a crawl
G C G C G
I still trip over fall, I’m right where I started at the end
(chorus)
D C D C
Where’d it go, The time that I had where’d they go, the plans that I made
D C
Once upon a time was like an ocean before me
D G-C-G-C-G-C-D
Now its like a bottle full of rain, a bottle full of rain
(Verse)
G C G C
Life can be funny, when you’re spending time like money
G C G-D G C
Never saving for a rainy day, you have to go and take it
G C G C G
You can’t buy it you can’t make it, there ain’t enough hours in the day
G C G C
Constantly persistent, annoyingly insistent
G C G-D G C
Can’t be any other way, even as I kill it
G C G C G
I can’t seem to still it, the rest of my life still slips away
(chorus)
D C D C
Where’d it go, The time that I had where’d they go, the plans that I made
D C
Once upon a time was like an ocean before me
D G-C-G-C-G-C-D
Now its like a bottle full of rain, a bottle full of rain
