Just Slips Away

D G D A Stand on the hill and take a look; D G D A Frozen ground and a muddy brook. D G D A The fire dies, and a baby cries, alone with all her alibis, D G D A Gotta give back what you took. D G D A Heaven help the lazy man; D G D A Works the hardest on his plan. D G D A The fastest day, an inch away, save it for another day, D G D A Better run while you still can. G D A You ain’t got half the time you thought, G D A Give up all of what you got, G D A The only thing that can’t be bought, G D A The time of day … just slips away … anyway. D G D A Fashion finds a finer thing; D G D A To make the fickle angels sing. D G D A A slippery hill, a bitter pill, a turn around the fiery still, D G D A Another generation crowns its king. Bm A G D A Oh Oh, tell me … tell me it ain’t so Bm A G Oh Oh … I want to go Bm A G D A Oh Oh … Every, Everybody knows Bm A G A The time of day … just slips away … anyway D G D A A dozen seasons pass the clock; D G D A You’re still reeling from the shock. D G D A A sudden glance, a squandered chance, a little hidden playful dance, D G D A Another chip falls off the block. G D A You ain’t got half the time you thought, G D A Give up all of what you got, G D A The only thing that can’t be bought, G D A The time of day … just slips away … anyway. G D A The time of day … just slips away … anyway.
