[Verse]
C F
Well the winter brings the snow
Dm G
It's spring before you know
Em Am
Summer comes and goes
F G
Like a dream that you can't hold
C F
As you gaze upon the sky
Dm G
See the clouds passing by
Em Am
They know as well as you and I
F Gsus4 G
Everything’s new until it's old
[Chorus]
Am F G
Perhaps I'd be happy if time stood still
Em Am
I know I won't for it never will
F G (G G#)
Sure as the evening geese take flight
Am F G
Silver coins in a Wishing Well
Em Am
Final chimes of a mission bell
F Gsus4 G
And it is ringing into the night
[Instrumental Break]
C F Dm G Em Am7 F G
[Verse]
C F
Well the morning brings the sun
Dm G
But the rain will surely come
Em Am
And the afternoon will run
F Gsus4 G
Into setting suns of pink and blue
C F
As you gaze upon the moon
Dm G
Be it crescent, full, or new
Em Am
It knows as well as me and you
F G Gsus4 G
Everything’s new until it’s old
[Chorus]
Am F G
Perhaps I'd be happy if time stood still
Em Am
I know I won't for it never will
F G G G7
Sure as the evening geese take flight
Am F G
Silver coins in a wishing well
Em Am
Final chimes of a mission bell
F G Gsus4 G
And it is ringing into the night
[Instrumental Break]
C F Dm7 G (G F E D C B) Am7 F G (G G#)
[Chorus]
Am C G
Well I know I'd be happy if time stood still
Em Am
But I won't for it never will
F G (G F E D C)
Sure as the evening geese take flight
Am F G
Silver coins in a wishing well
Em Am
Final chimes of a mission bell
F G (G G#) Am
And it is ringing into the night
