Precious Time - Van Morison
 
G                       C
Precious time is slipping away
G                  D
But you're only king for a day
G                    C
It doesn't matter to which God you pray
G        D          C      G
Precious time is slipping away
 
G                            C
It doesn't matter what route you take
G                             D
Sooner or later the hearts going to break
G                       C
No rhyme or reason, no master plan
G     D         C        G
No Nirvana, no promised land
 
G                            C
Because, precious time is slipping away
G                           D
Yuu know you're only king for a day
G                           C
It doesn't matter to which God you pray
G         D       C        G
Precious time is slipping away
 
G                       C
Say que sera, whatever will be
G                       D
But then I keep on searching for immortality
G                                     C
She's so beautiful but she's going to die some day
G             D     C          G
Everything in life just passes away
 
G                       C
But, precious time is slipping away
G                            D
You know she's only queen for a day
G                           C
It doesn't matter to which God you pray
G         D       C        G
Precious time is slipping away
 
G                                    C
Well this world is cruel with its twists and turns
G                                    D
Well the fire's still in me and the passion burns
G                                     C
I'll love her madly, 'til the day I die
G            D                 C          G
'Til hell freezes over and the rivers run dry
 
G                    C
Precious time is slipping away
G                      D
You know she's only queen for a day
G                                  C
It doesn't matter to which God you pray because
G         D        C      G
Precious time is slipping away
 
G                  C
Precious time is slipping away
G                     D
You know you're only king for a day
G                          C
It doesn't matter to which God you pray
G         D       C        G
Precious time is slipping away
 
G                  C
Precious time is slipping away
G                     D
You know you're only king for a day
G                          C
It doesn't matter to which God you pray because
G        D         C      G
Precious time is slipping away
