1. Time, time, time, see what's become of me,

while I looked around, for my possibilities, I was so hard to please.

Am G

But look around, leaves are brown,

and the sky is a hazy shade of winter.

2. We're the Salvation Army band.

down by the riverside, it’s bound to be a better ride

C G

than what you've got planned, carry your cup in your hand.

Am G

And look around you, leaves are brown now,

F E Am

and the sky is a hazy shade of winter.

G

3. Hang onto to your hopes my friends,

that's an easy thing to say, but if your hopes should pass away

it’s simply pretend that you can build them again !

Am G

Look around, the grass is high,

F E Am

the fields are ripe, it’s the springtime of my life.

F C G

Ah, seasons change with the scenery, weaving time in a tapestry,

Am G Am - G

won't you stop and remember me at any convenient time ?

Funny how my memory slips while looking over manuscripts

of unpublished rhyme, drinking my Vodka and lime.

Am G

I look around, leaves are brown now,

and the sky is a hazy shade of winter.

Look around, leaves are brown,

there's a patch of snow on the ground.

Look around, leaves are brown,

there's a patch of snow on the ground.

there's a patch of snow on the ground.
