Verse:
D5
It takes a long time to kill a man
Fifty-five years at least
Until he breaks down
Starts to look underground
G5 D5
To go off and get him some peace
I want to die a lot quicker than that
If my it's my only way out
I've been counting up the costs
Getting up on that cross
I want to know what this all about
Chorus:
A5
Father Time,
G5
Steals our days,
D5
Like a thief.
A5 G5
There's no price that I wouldn't pay,
D5
To get some relief
A5 G5
Now I'm an empty shell,
B5 G5
Of a man I don't like so well
B5 A5 G5
I am a living, breathing hell,
D5
Come on and resurrect me
Verse:
D5
I tried to drown the pain with a friend of mine
It didn't seem to help
Ah she's got a pretty face
With her wedding lace
G5 D5
But I'm still waking up with myself
I know what it means to choke it down
Up, down till your legs get weak
I know what it's like on a Saturday night
To be alone on a crowded street
Chorus:
A5
Father Time,
G5
Steals our days,
D5
Like a thief.
A5 G5
There's no price that I haven't paid,
D5
To get some relief
A5 G5
And now I'm the shell of a man,
B5 G5
I can't begin to understand,
B5 A5 G5
Have I forgotten who I am?
D5
Come on and resurrect me
Bridge:
A5 G5
Resurrect me
D5
Resurrect me
A5 G5
Resurrect me
B5 G5
Resurrect me
B5 A5-G5
Resurrect me
D5
Come on and resurrect me
