verse 1 

G           C     D7         G 
Some people run, some people crawl; 
Em          C          D7      G 
Some people don't even move at all. 
G               C 
Some roads lead forward, 
D7              G 
Some roads lead back; 
Em             C                     D7         G   
Some roads are bathed in white, some wrapped in black. 
G           C              D7          G 
Some people never get, and some never give; 
Em          C             D7         G 
Some people never die and some never live. 
                    C 
Some folks treat me mean, 
D7             G 
Some treat me kind;  
Em              C     
Most folks just go their way  
          D7          G 
and don't pay me any mind. 


G        C         Am     D7           G 
Time, oh good good time, where did you go? 
        C         Am    D7            G   C  D7 G  C D7 
Time oh good good time, where did you go? 

verse 2 

G              C         D7             G 
Sometimes I'm satisfied, Some times I'm not. 
Em             C                D7              G 
Some times my face is cold, and some times it's hot. 
          C      D7       G 
Sunset I laugh, sunrise I cry; At midnight 
    C          D7                 G 
I'm in between, and I'm wonderin' why. 

Outro

Time, oh good good time, where did you go? 
         C         Am    D7            G  C D7 G  C D7 G 
Time oh good good time, where did you go?
