VERSE:
O[C]ld man t[G]ime is a r[F]are old [C]man
For a y[Am]oung man he'll e[C]ver rem[G]ain
With his l[F]ong grey be[C]ard and his cl[Am]othes are pl[G]ain
Oh O[F]ld Man T[G]ime is his n[C]ame.
As o[Am]ne flower d[G]ies
The o[F]ld man he c[Am]ries
The yo[C]ung man he plants the seeds ag[G]ain
With a c[Am]areful h[F]and, he t[C]ends the s[G]and,
F G C (play INTRO 2x's)
Oh, Old Man Time is his name.
VERSE:
T[C]his old [G]man has an h[F]ourgl[C]ass
For e[Am]very s[C]oul on the l[G]and.
Oh, O[F]ld Man T[C]ime, I h[Am]ave seen m[G]ine,
It's the o[F]ne with the f[G]astest s[C]and.
No so[Am]oner is it tu[G]rned,
Back th[F]rough the glass it's ch[Am]urned,
I'm w[C]ishing i could have each hour aga[G]in,
With a ca[Am]reful h[F]and, he t[C]ends the s[G]and,
Oh, O[F]ld Man T[G]ime is his n[C]ame.
INSTRUMENTAL: I PLAY THE CHORDS FROM THE 2nd HALF OF THE VERSE
[Am] [G] [F] [Am] [C] [G]
[F] [Am] [C] [G] [F]the[G]n pl[C]ay [Am]INTRO 2x's time....
VERSE:
To [C]me, Old M[G]an, your t[F]ime is r[C]are,
Did G[Am]od not g[C]ive you all my s[G]and?
Or m[F]aybe m[C]ine I [Am]had to sh[G]are
Or is there so[F]me left [G]in your h[C]and?
They t[Am]ell me time is g[G]old, well m[F]aybe it's been s[Am]old,
Or [C]was it simply washed away in r[G]ain?
With a ca[Am]reful ha[F]nd, he t[C]ends the s[G]and,
Oh, O[F]ld Man T[G]ime is his n[C]ame.
If I br[Am]ought him a s[G]ack,
Do you t[F]hink he'd put some b[Am]ack?
I k[C]now one day across my path he'll c[G]ome,
But [Am]as for [F]now, I c[C]an't say h[G]ow,
I kn[F]ow that old man's w[G]ork is far from d[C]one.[Am]
F G C PLAY INTRO 3x's
