F Dm Once you were a young man, C F But now you are old - you're over the hill. F Dm And you can't cross the palm of time's hand C F With silver and gold to make him stand still. F Dm Who could have possibly thought C F It would go so fast, but it certainly did. F Dm And now you find yourself caught C F With less future than past - you're no longer a kid. C Once, as a boy, time weighed heavy on your hands - Gm C You couldn't wait to be a man. F Dm Now you cry - oh, it's so hard to laugh, C F And you can't understand why you can't turn time around. F Dm Your hourglass once had a top half C F That was filled full of sand, but it's all trickled down.
