Older chests reveal themselves Like a crack in a wall

Am C/B C F* G*

Starting small, and grow in time

And we (always) seem to need the help

of someone else

To mend that shelf

(of) Too many books

Read me your favourite line

Papa went to other lands

And he found someone who understands

The ticking, and the western man's need to cry

He came back the other day, yeah you know

Some things in life may change

And some things

They stay the same

Like time, there's always time

On my mind

So pass me by, I'll be fine

Just give me time

Older gents sit on the fence

With their cap in hand

Looking grand

They watch their city change

Children scream, or so it seems,

Louder than before

Out of doors, into stores with bigger names

Mama tried to wash their faces

But these kids they lost their graces

And daddy lost at the races too many times

She broke down the other day, yeah you know

Some things in life may change

But some things they stay the same

Like time, time, there's always time

On my mind

So pass me by, I'll be fine

Just give me time,

Time, there's always time

On my mind

Pass me by, I'll be fine

Just give me time
