Statues

G Am I put it all on one last spin, C G see I was hoping you might be lucky. G Am I lost it all like the winter loses to the spring, B G now I’m hoping that you might forgive me. Am C D I’m thinking to myself though we never had much else we always had something safe. Am C D I can’t understand as we made all these plans it felt like we needed more days. Am C G And the years go by and she takes each morning with her Am C G Maybe time is a statue not a river. G Am Well I drank away the last few years turned them into a single picture C G Wish I could show you, but its fading by the hour G Am I’m trying to find a new man a new way of living C G This one is giving me a heart attack Am C D But there’s ghosts at every door looking through my mind trying to find things to destroy Am C D And I’m sure its speeding up a decade to me now feels like a summer when I was a boy Am C G And the years go by and I wait to be delivered, Am C G Maybe time is a statue not a river. Am C Why were you so kind to me? Am C Why were you so kind? E7 Am Why were you so kind to me? E7 G Why where you so kind? Am C G As the years went by and the night is drawing closer Am C G Maybe time is a heartbeat not a river Am C G And the years go by and I wish I could go with her Am C G Maybe love is a statue not a river.
