Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][Bm]
[A]Time

[Verse 1]
[Bm]is slowly ticking,
taking all our youth
[Em]Beelzebub and chosen one
have both been [Bm]in cahoots
[F#m]They play u[Bm]s like gin rummy and
they're cheating on the side
While we [Em]gaze into a broken mirror like
[F#sus4]Frankenste[F#m]in's bride[F#sus4][Bm]
I [G]wish someone could [D]tell me something I
[Em]don't already know[F#][F#sus4][F#]
It's [A]been [Bm]some hard living,
[A]still got [G]a ways to go
[Bm][F#]

[Verse 2]
[Bm]Rooster [Em]in t[Bm]he hen house,
hit man on the phone
[Em]Low man on the totem pole,
can't [Bm]get no time [F#]alone
I've been [Bm]seeking satisfaction
for this gnawing in my soul
I build a [Em]house like Andrew Jackson
if that [F#]were my only goal
I'm [G]looking [D]for[G] a cha[D]nge to come but bro[Em]ther,
change comes [F#]slow
And it's been [Bm]some hard living,
[A]still got a [G]ways to [Bm]go, ho ho ho
[A]

[Verse 3]
I [D]look outside at this beautiful day
Sun is shining, lighting up my way
I gotta [G]get out of here and
get me a fishing [D]pole
It's been some [A]hard living and I still got a ways to go

[Interlude 1]
[D][F#][F#sus4][Bm]
[G][Em][Bm][F#]
[Bm][Em][F#]
[G][D][Bm][Em][F#][F#m][Bm]
[A][Bm][F#]

[Verse 4]
I ponti[Bm]ficate, I suffocate, I overate
(My, my)
I've been [Em]wearily, sincerely,
too [Bm]lonesome now to [F#]cry
[Bm]Gawking, squawking,
talking from a patent leather couch
Working [Em]through my childish hood beyond
[F#]the shadows and the doubts
Oh, [G]ye of little [D]consequence,
please cast [Em]that first precious [F#sus4]stone[F#]
'Cause it's been [Bm]some hard,
hard living and I [A]still got [G]a ways [Bm]to go
[A]

[Verse 5]
I [D]look outside and it's starting to rain
'round the curve comes a
passenger train
[G]Northbound freight on a south
bound [D]track[A][D]
Yeah, she's al[A]right leaving but
she wont be coming [D]back[A]

[Verse 6]
I [D]look out[Bm]side at [D]this beautiful day
Sun is shining, [A]man, it's [D]lighting up my way
I gotta [G]get out of here and get
me a fishing [D]pole[A][D]
It's been some [A]hard living and I still got
a ways to [D]go[A][D][A][D][A][D][A][D]
Still got a ways to go
