[Verse 1]
Am
it's 5 minutes past loneliness
Am G
a week since dawn
Am
a hundred hours since you were here
Am G
and life goes on
Am
a broken clock, a spark of time
Am G
the moon eclipse the sun
Am
a thousand days to realize
Am G
the moment you were gone
[Refrain]
Am C D
play the cards and guess the rime
Am C D
make a deal with Father Time
Am C D
deuce is high and ace is low
Am C D
life is fast but time is slow
[Verse 2]
Am
a week of seven mondays
Am G
it felt like twice as long
Am
and all of them on one day
Am G
your shadow lingered on
Am
half past eternity
Am G
that's when you hear the drums
Am
put your faith in yesterday
Am G
if tomorrow never comes
[Refrain]
Am C D
play the cards and guess the rime
Am C D
make a deal with Father time
Am C D
deuce is high and ace is low
Am C D
life is fast but time is slow
[Verse 3]
Am
it's 5 minutes past loneliness
Am G
a weak since dawn
Am
a hundred hours since you were here
Am G
and life goes on
Am
half past eternity
Am G
that's when you hear the drums
Am
put your faith in yesterday
Am G
if tomorrow never comes
[Refrain]
Am C D
play the cards and guess the rime
Am C D
make a deal with Father Time
Am C D
deuce is high and ace is low
Am C D
life is fast but time is slow
