VERSE: 
    Am           Em                Am                   Em 
      Yes, star crossed in pleasure the stream flows on by 
    Am               Em                  Am            Em 
      Yes, as we're sated in leisure, we watch it fly, yes 
 
 

           Dm            Am              F             C

      And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me 
 
 
VERSE: 
      Time can tear down a building or destroy a woman's face 
      Hours are like diamonds, don't let them waste

      Time waits for no one, no favors has he 
      Time waits for no one, and he won't wait for me 
 
 
INSTRUMENTAL:  SOLO OVER THE Chorus CHORDS AND THEN  Am  Em -- 2x's 
 
 
VERSE: 
      Men, they build towers to their passing yes 
      To their fame everlasting 
      Here he comes chopping and reaping 
      Hear him laugh at their cheating 
 
 
 
      And time waits for no man, and it won't wait for me 
      Yes, time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me 
 
VERSE: 
      Drink in your summer, gather your corn 
      The dreams of the night time will vanish by dawn 
 

      And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me 
      And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me
