Five Minutes More Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]8[D][G][Em][D][C]
[G]years old,
a couple cane poles,
sitting down by the creek
Lion[Em]s in the water,
watching those bobbers,
seeing that red sun sink
Mom[C]ma's on the porch
yellin' supper's hot
Y 'all come and get it
We yelled [Em]five [D]more [C]minutes
[G]At sixteen it was twelve on three
Standing at her front door
[Em]Katie's dad said midnight
But we needed just a little more
[C]Yellow light flippin' on and off
Interrupting that goodnight kissing
We wanted [Em]five [D]more [C]minutes[G]
[C]Time rolls by, the clock don't stop
I wish I had a few more drops
Of the [G]good stuff, the good times
[Em]Oh, but they just keep on flyi[D]ng
Right [C]on by like it ain't nothing
I wish I had me a pause button
Mo[Em]ments like those,
[D]Lord knows I'd [C]hate it
And give myself five more
[D]min[Em]utes[D][G]
Eighteen, turned my helmet in
[D]Walked [G]to the fifty yard line
Just the [Em]coach and me, after we
Lost eight, ten to nine
And I cried, [C]man, next time to get in here
I'll have to buy a ticket
Can't you give me [Em]five [D]more [C]minutes?
[D]Tim[C]e goes by, the clock don't stop
I wish I had a few more drops
Of the [G]good stuff, the good times
[Em]Oh, but they just keep on flyin'
[D]Rig[C]ht on by like it ain't nothin'
I wish I had me a pause button
Mo[Em]ments like those
[D]Lord knows I'd [C]hate
And give myself five more
[D]min[G]utes[Em][D][C]
[G]In 86 my grandpa said
There's angels in the room
[Em]All the family gathered round
knew the time was coming soon
[C]With so much left to say I prayed Lord,
I ain't finished.
Just give us [Em]five [D]more [C]minutes
Time rolls by the clock don't stop.
I wish I had a few more drives
of the [G]good stuff
They're good times, [Em]oh,
but they just keep on fly[D]in'
[C]Right on by like it ain't nothin'
Wish I had me a pause button
Mo[Em]ments like those,
[D]Lord knows I'd [C]hate it
Yeah, [Em]sometimes it's so
[D]life will leave you [C]wishin'[D]
[C]That you had five mor[D]e min[G]utes[C]
Yeah, [Em]five [D]more minutes
