[Verse 1]
Bm
Dad never started drinking
'til he was thirty-five
G
And once he found the power
he made up for his lost time
Asus2
Go outside and catch a cricket,
then unplug the phone
G
Said their singing kept him company,
F#
when we'd leave him alone
[Verse 2]
Bm
Those were days of feeling awkward,
being seventeen and such
G
Hoping I could find some comfort,
in a deacon's daughter's touch
Asus2
I'd spend time out in the desert
feeling lonely with a friend
G
And we'd talk about leaving,
F#
but it was years before we did
[Chorus]
G D A
Oh the time moves slow
G D A
But you can't go where you want to go
G D A
But, oh the time slips away
Bm G A
Day after day, day after day
Day after day
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
Bm
Well I found myself a genie,
said she'd grant a wish for me
G
And all I had to do for her
A
was love her endlessly
Asus2
So I asked my dad about it and he said,
"Son, life's a game we play."
G
So I closed my eyes, held her and said,
F#
"Take me away"
[Verse 4]
Bm
Let's live in a lighthouse
on the Maritime shore
G
And we'll hang a wreath to loneliness
upon our lighthouse door
Asus2
But we never made the ocean,
she never followed through
G
She said the day she left,
F#
you know, I really thought you knew
[Chorus]
G D A
Oh the time moves slow
G D A
But you can't go where you want to go
G D A
But, oh the time slips away
Bm G A
Day after day, day after day
Day after day
[Solo]

[Verse 5]
Bm
Well I went back home to see my dad,
and I walked through the door
G
To his photographs of Hank and Johnny,
lying on the floor
Asus2
Hank had a hole shot through his mouth
and Johnny in the head
G
There were crickets in hallway
F#
and Dad awake in bed
[Verse 6]
Bm
He was sitting in the darkness
with just a cigarette light
G
Said he went a little crazy
sometime in the night
Asus2
I never asked him about the pictures
though it was clear to me
G
He shot 'em for the life
F#
and the man he wouldn't be
[Chorus]
G D A
Oh the time moves slow
G D A
And you can't go where you want to go
G D A
But, oh the time slips away
Bm G A
Day after day, day after day
Day after day
[Chorus]
G D A
Oh the time moves slow
G D A
And you can't go where you want to go
G D A
But, oh the time slips away
Bm G A
Day after day, day after day
Day after day after day after day
[Outro]
