As one flower dies

The old man he cries

The young man he plants the seeds again

No sooner is it turned,

VERSE:
C G F C
To me, Old Man, your time is rare,
Am C G
Did God not give you all my sand?
F C Am G
Or maybe mine I had to share
F G C
Or is there some left in your hand?
Am G F Am
They tell me time is gold, well maybe it's been sold,
C G
Or was it simply washed away in rain?
Am F C G
With a careful hand, he tends the sand,
F G C
Oh, Old Man Time is his name.
Am G
If I brought him a sack,
F Am
Do you think he'd put some back?
C G
I know one day across my path he'll come,
Am F C G
But as for now, I can't say how,
F G C Am
I know that old man's work is far from done.
F G C PLAY INTRO 3x's
