Title: TIME IN A BOTTLE (Jim Croce)

B- = (xx0331)

Dm Dm(maj7) Dm7 Dm6

If I could save time in a bottle

Gm6 A7

The first thing that I'd like to do

Dm Dm7 B- Gm7 Dm

Is to save every day till eternity passes away

Gm A7

Just to spend them with you.

Dm Dm(maj7) Dm7 Dm6

If I could make days last forever

Gm6 A7

If words could make wishes come true

Dm Dm7 B- Gm7 Dm

I'd save every day like a treasure and then

Gm A7

Again, I would spend them with you.

D Dmaj7

Chorus: But there never seems to be enough time

| D6 D G Gmaj7

| To do the things you want to do Once you find them

| Em7 A7 D Dmaj7

| I've looked around enough to know

| D6 D G Gmaj7 Em7 A7

| That you're the one I want to go through time with.

Dm Dm(maj7) Dm7 Dm6

If I had a box just for wishes

Gm6 A7

And dreams that had never come true

Dm Dm7 B- Gm7 Dm

The box would be empty except for the memory

Gm 7

Of how they were answered by you

(CHORUS)

Dm Dm(maj7) Dm7 Dm6

If I could save time in a bottle,

Gm6 A7

The first thing that I'd like to do

Dm Dm7 B- Gm7 Dm

Is to save every day 'till eternity passes away,

Gm A7

Just to spend them with you.

[Chorus]

If I could make days last forever,

If words could make wishes come true,

I'd save every day like a treasure and then

Again I would spend them with you.

[Chorus]

If I had a box just for wishes,

And dreams that had never come true,

The box would be empty except for the memory of

How they were answered by you.

[Chorus]

Chorus:

D Dmaj7

But there never seems to be enough time

D6 D G Gmaj7

To do the tings you want to do once you find them

Em7 A7 D Dmaj7

[1 bar] [3/4 bar] I've looked around enough to know

D6 D G

That you're the one I want to go through time with.

Gmaj7 Em7 A7

[1 bar] [1 bar] [1 bar]

On the last go 'round, play and hold Dm.
