They say time is of the essence
C#7Bm7
They say time will always tell
GGm
I've wasted time in constant panic
F#7
As the the Rome around me fell
D9E7
And each moment that is stolen
C#7Bm7
Is another time to breathe
GGm
In a life of turning pages
F#7
With the bit between my teeth
A7DF#m
From the cradle to the grave (From the cradle to the grave)
DF#m
I know I won't be a slave (I know I wont be a slave)
Em7A7
To the mistakes that I've made (From the cradle to the grave)
Em7
With the passion and the pace (I know I wo-nt)
BbD
And I wont go till I'm ready
AD9
From the cradle to the grave
E7
They say time is a great healer
C#7Bm7
They say time will not stand still
GGm
When I look outside the window
F#7
I see a sky stuck to a hill
D9E7
And the moon looks down behind me
C#7Bm7
Like it's seen it all before
GGm
For a thousand generations
F#7
Who don't live here anymore
A7DF#m
From the cradle to the grave (From the cradle to the grave)
DF#m
I know I won't be a slave (I know I wont be a slave)
Em7A7
To the mistakes that I've made (From the cradle to the grave)
Em7
With the passion and the pace (I know I wo-nt)
BbD
And I wont go till I'm ready
AD9
From the cradle to the grave
E7
They say time will wait for no man
C#7Bm7
They say time is on my side
GGm
I can never make my mind up
F#7
As it all goes whizzing by
A7DF#m
From the cradle to the grave (From the cradle to the grave)
DF#m
I know I wont be a slave (I know I wont be a slave)
Em7A7
To the mistakes that I've made (From the cradle to the grave)
Em7
With the passion and the pace (I know I wo-nt)
BbD
And I wont go till I'm ready
AA7/G
No I wont go (from the cradle to the grave)
till I'm ready
AA7/G
No I wont go (from the cradle to the grave)
till I'm ready
DF#m
From the cradle to the grave (From the cradle to the grave)
DF#m
I know I wont be a slave (I know I wont be a slave)
Em7
To the mistakes that I've made (From the crad-le)
BbD
And I wont go till I'm ready
AD9
From the cradle to the grave
